Collection: 8 ft Runners

8 ft runner rugs are made for narrow spaces like hallways, kitchens, entryways, and bedside walkways. Runner widths are commonly around 2 to 3 feet, while lengths typically range from 6 to 14 feet depending on the space.

A 8 foot runner is a practical choice when you want coverage along a walkway while still leaving a clean border of floor visible on both sides. Measure your hallway and aim for a runner that leaves a little breathing room near doorways and walls for a tailored look.
