Hello folks back again ... I have a dfgt wheel i have took some considerable time looking for a good worthwhile solution for this ... I have laminate flooring allout my house and my pedals of my dfgt keep slipping away even with the grip down it just scratches my flooring i cant think of anuly household items which would be ok as i need to pack it away after every use and i dont want anything sticking to my floor constantly has anyone had a simillar problem like this and could enlighten me on a feesable solution?
Thanks
 
Maybe an area rug, or a bathroom rug. One you can pin with your seat and have your pedal on. The rug wont slide after being pinned by the seat or chair. Do the same if your on the couch but pin an end under a couch leg

A rug sounds good. I used to have this problem even on carpet with my old pedals, I just put a heavy box behind them and used a CD to fill the gap between the two, since it was the only thing I could find small enough to fit under the wire so it wouldn't get bent. Don't know how well that would work on a smooth floor, the best way is if you can push it all against something that absolutely won't move of course(like a wall). Not familiar with the layout of the DFGT pedal unit but I think they are sort of similar to my old DF ones.
 
You could try this: it's non-slip matting. I've used this before in the car and it grips like the proverbial to a blanket. Cheap and you can cut it to size. 👍
 
The thing with the spikes on it that goes up and down is a carpet grip and should only be down when you're using carpet. If you're on laminate, it should be up out of the way.
 
I use a doormat (very high tech :lol:) works great 👍
 
If you don't mind a bit of residue try 3M double-sided tape. I am in the states so if you aren't from the US try some other brand. I use this and it keeps the pedals secure but removable.
 
Thanks for all the replies people i will sure look into all of these ideas and sujjestions and carczar il check that out first as i am very familliar with 3m tape products in my work to mask off car panels as i said i will look into all ideas thanks guys
