hallway runner

Long narrow rug

A hallway runner is a long, narrow rug designed to fit the proportions of a hallway or corridor.

Runners protect flooring from foot traffic while adding warmth and decoration to transitional spaces: We put down a hallway runner to protect the hardwood.

The term distinguishes these elongated rugs from standard rectangular area rugs.
