Your carpet is starting to lift at the edges and around doorways despite a clean installation — that is a failure that comes from inadequate edge securing. These #14 x 3/4-inch carpet tacks give you the grip to hold carpet edges tight where the knee kicker alone cannot reach. Brown diamond finish blends with most carpet colors. 3/4-inch penetration is enough to lock the carpet into the pad and subfloor without going through. The 1-oz pack is the right quantity for a typical residential install without excess waste. What carpet installers from Sioux City to Norfolk keep in their kits for securing carpet edges and transitions — the detail that separates a professional installation from one that shows problems within a year.
