In a method for keeping an easily removable mat or similar small carpet (5) in place in a carpeted or carpet tile covered area (1) of a floor, the mat (5) is provided with a pattern of engageable means, such as projections (6), distributed all over its lower side. One or more parts (2) of the floor area (1) to be covered by the mat (5) is kept or made free from carpeting or carpet tile covering, and said one or more uncovered parts (2) of the floor area (1) is provided with an anchoring plate material (7), the upper surface of which is performed with engageable to engage the lower side of the mat (5) for preventing a horizontal displacement of the mat. Then the mat (5) is arranged in place for covering the anchoring plate material (7) and for engagement between its lower side and the upper surface of the anchoring plate material (7). Thereby is obtained that the mats may be easily replaced and no risk occurs for the people walking on the carpeted area (1) during the replacement.
