THE SETUP AT A GLANCE
Each part has a purpose.
LOOK CLOSER
The details that make the difference.
Aluminum side finish
The profiles are made from aluminum and are intended for the sides of a compatible L-TEK hard mat.
Signature arrow artwork
Repeating L-TEK arrows and a smooth color gradient give the frame a more distinctive appearance.
A separate visual detail
Use the side treatment to complement the existing top-panel design without treating it as a change to the mat’s inputs.
Check the model fit
For compatible L-TEK hard mats. Next Level Gaming Mat is excluded.
Coordinate with panel artwork
If you also want a photo or your own design on the top surface, the separate panel-customization service offers options for supported models.
01 / A finish you see from the room
Give attention to the edges as well as the arrows.
When a mat sits beside a screen, sofa or streaming setup, its sides are part of the overall look. These aluminum profiles carry a repeating L-TEK arrow pattern along that edge, with the colors transitioning through a gradient. The product gallery shows the printed profiles on their own and installed on a hard mat, helping you judge how the finish works with the top panels. This is a decorative side-profile accessory for an existing compatible setup. Choose it for the visual effect around the frame; it does not add a new control surface or change the game’s input layout.
02 / Match the frame
Choose profiles for the hard mat you actually own.
These profiles suit most L-TEK hard mats; Next Level Gaming Mat is excluded. Before ordering, identify your model and, for an older mat, its version. Compare the existing frame with the installed gallery views and confirm the correct fit with L-TEK if anything differs. That check matters more than choosing an accessory from the appearance alone. If you are combining this upgrade with replacement corner bumpers or other frame work, explain the planned combination to support so the parts can be checked together. Use the fitting guidance for that confirmed mat and accessory combination.
03 / Plan the design together
Side artwork and top-panel printing are separate choices.
These profiles use the L-TEK arrow-and-gradient design shown in the gallery. If your idea also includes a personal image across the playing surface, look at the panel-customization guide before ordering. That service has specific model and panel-layout options, and a choice between printing on a new mat and ordering replacement panels. It is a separate purchase from these aluminum profiles. Start by deciding which part of the mat you want to change: the outer sides, the printed top panels or both. Then choose the matching accessories and review the combined appearance before arranging the order.
A GOOD FIRST EXPERIENCE
Plan the side-profile upgrade
Use the gallery to choose the look, then confirm the parts and fitting guidance for your hard mat.
- 01
Identify your mat
Check the model and version of the hard mat you want to update. Next Level Gaming Mat is outside the listed compatibility.
- 02
Compare the installed views
Look at how the arrow-and-gradient profiles sit alongside the top panels. Decide whether you are changing the sides alone or coordinating other artwork.
- 03
Confirm the fitting details
Ask L-TEK to confirm the correct profiles and fitting instructions for your frame before removing existing parts.
- 04
Fit and check the setup
Follow the confirmed instructions, inspect the fitted edges and check the mat before returning it to its usual playing position.

BEFORE YOU DECIDE
Good questions.
Useful answers.
Find the answer here, then follow the guide if you want the detail.
Are these replacement arrow panels?
These are side profiles for the outer edges of a compatible hard mat. Arrow panels are parts of the top playing surface and are offered as separate products.
Will they fit my L-TEK mat?
They suit most L-TEK hard mats; Next Level Gaming Mat is excluded. Confirm your exact model and version with L-TEK before ordering, particularly for an older frame.
Can I use them on Next Level Gaming Mat?
Next Level Gaming Mat is explicitly excluded from this accessory’s listed compatibility.
Do they change the mat’s sensitivity or controls?
These profiles change the aluminum side finish and printed appearance. They do not add active panels or provide input mapping.
Can I add my own image to the top of the mat too?
The separate panel-customization service covers selected top panels on supported hard-mat models. Choose its layout and print option independently from these side profiles, using artwork you own or have permission to use.
How should I fit them?
Obtain the appropriate fitting guidance for your mat and this accessory before removing the existing profiles. If other frame parts are being replaced at the same time, include that information when asking L-TEK to confirm the setup.

Testimonials and tales shared by our dance family
Love it! I used cheap foam pads for a few months, but could feel their limitations (sliding, inconsistent detection, etc). This new metal pad felt like a clear upgrade. The price is a little steep but feels fair given the quality of the board.
Highly recommend!
Marvelous pad. They’re sturdy enough for playing with shoes. I removed the center screws for each arrow and found the sensitivity to be fantastic. Well worth the price.
This pad is amazing!! Don’t listen to anyone saying theyre “not good enough” even without any mods, the pad feels exactly like the arcade! <3 Thank you iAmats for this amazing pad! i'd give it 20 stars if i could.
