Carpet under heating pipes

[wedge69]

Evening all,

As you can hopefully see from the photos we've ended up with central heating pipes closer to the floor than we would like.

We wanted to carpet the floor, but there's no way gripper rods would fit under. Is it possible fix the gripper in front of the pipes, or perhaps just glue the carpet down under their instead?

Thanks!

Yes. Leave enough space between gripper and pipe to allow the carpet edge to tuck under the pipe.

Box the pipes in first and carpet up to the boxing .
Or get rid of them pipes into the wall and under the floor . It spoils your radiator.
