That has been my experience. In an ideal world one strip would be pop-rive=
ted to the floor and the other part would be stitched to the carpet.
But my experience is that the regular snaps work well enough.

Thank you, Tim. Geo makes the point that he wonders if the adhesive holding
the strip to the floor may be weaker than the actual Velcro lock itself.
Wondering about that.

3M makes a Velcro alternative called Dual Lock that is IMO a big improvement

It comes in a variety of formats and colors, this is just one example:

The pieces snap together with an audible click and hold well. It does not
lose its grip over time like Velcro sometimes does. The sticky back may
or may not be better - depending on the surface you may have to add some
adhesive to get lasting attachment. Fabric/fiber is particular is
difficult as the connection strength of the product may be stronger than its
adherence to the item.

Any recommendations about, what one archive post calls "industrial Velcro"?
