FAQs

How do I measure my furniture legs?

Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the diameter (width) of the furniture leg.

What if I don't know the exact size of my furniture leg?

It is best to measure. If you are unsure, it's better to choose a slightly smaller size than a larger one, as they need to fit snugly.

Can these caps be used on outdoor furniture?

How long do the insert caps typically last?

The lifespan depends on usage and the type of floor. They should last several months to a few years with normal use. Check them regularly and replace them if they are worn.

Are these caps suitable for all types of flooring?

These caps are suitable for most flooring types, including hardwood, tile, and laminate. However, they may not be suitable for very rough or uneven surfaces.

How do I remove the caps if I need to?

You can often remove the caps by gently prying them out with a flathead screwdriver or similar tool. Be careful not to damage the furniture leg or the floor.

Can I use these caps on angled furniture legs?

The effectiveness of these caps on angled legs will depend on the angle. Check to see if they fit and provide a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Measure the leg diameter and ensure you have the correct size cap. Consider different sizes if the current ones are too loose or too tight.
