Whether you are replacing broken sofa feet, fitting new chair glides, restoring a traditional armchair, repairing a footstool or adding castors to a piece of furniture, this category helps you find the right part without having to dig through unrelated upholstery supplies.

The range includes wooden furniture feet, metal furniture legs, brass castors, Kenrick and poly castors, plastic glides, felt glides, nail glides and footstool frames. It is suitable for professional upholsterers, furniture makers, repair workshops, contract seating suppliers and domestic furniture repairs.

Find the Right Fitting for the Job

Furniture feet, castors and glides all do different jobs. Furniture feet provide support and finish. Castors allow furniture to move more easily. Glides help protect floors and reduce wear. Choosing the right fitting improves stability, appearance, floor protection and long-term performance.

The correct choice depends on the type of furniture, the fixing method, the weight of the item, the floor surface and the style of finish required. A heavy sofa, a footstool, a dining chair and a restored armchair will not all need the same fitting.

Wooden Furniture Feet

Wooden furniture feet are ideal for sofas, armchairs, footstools, stools and traditional upholstered furniture. They are often chosen where the finish is visible and the furniture needs a smart, classic or decorative appearance.

The wooden feet range includes options such as round feet, square feet, Queen Anne legs, L-shaped feet and footstool frames. These are suitable for replacement furniture feet, upholstery repairs, furniture restoration and new furniture builds.

Wooden feet are especially useful when repairing older furniture or when the finished look needs to match a traditional upholstery style rather than a modern metal leg.

Metal Furniture Legs

Metal furniture legs are a strong and practical option for modern furniture, contemporary upholstery, commercial seating, cabinets, benches and contract furniture.

They are commonly used where a cleaner, more modern look is required, or where the furniture needs a strong, simple support fitting. Metal legs are a good choice for workshops, furniture makers and repair jobs where appearance and strength both matter.

Furniture Castors

Furniture castors are used when chairs, sofas, footstools, cabinets or other furniture need to move more easily. They are also commonly used to replace worn, damaged or missing castors on existing furniture.

This category includes brass castors, grip neck castors, screw plate castors, cup castors, Kenrick castors, poly castors and castor sockets. These fittings are useful for both traditional furniture restoration and everyday upholstery repairs.

When replacing castors, always check the fixing type, stem size, socket size and wheel style before ordering. Getting that wrong is how a simple job turns into a workshop swear box.

Brass CastorsĀ 

Brass castors are a popular choice for traditional upholstery, antique-style furniture, armchairs, sofas, settees and footstools. They offer a more decorative finish than standard castors and are often used where the castor remains visible.

Brass furniture castors are ideal for restoration work and furniture repairs where the finished appearance matters as much as the function.

Kenrick and Poly Castors

Kenrick and poly castors are practical replacement castors for upholstery and furniture repair work. They are commonly used on chairs, sofas, footstools and other furniture where the correct socket or stem fitting is important.

These castors are suitable for trade workshops, furniture repairers and anyone replacing old or damaged castors with a reliable working alternative.

Furniture Glides

Furniture glides help protect floors, improve stability and allow furniture to move more smoothly without causing unnecessary damage.

This category includes plastic furniture glides, felt glides, nail glides, screw-in glides and knock-in glides. They are commonly used on dining chairs, stools, sofas, cabinets, display units, commercial seating and contract furniture.

Felt Glides and Nail Glides

Felt glides and nail glides are ideal for chairs, stools and furniture used on hard floors. They help reduce scratching, noise and wear, making them a practical option for homes, offices, shops, hospitality venues and contract seating.

They are especially useful where furniture is moved regularly and the floor surface needs protection.

Plastic Furniture GlidesĀ 

Plastic furniture glides are a simple and effective fitting for furniture protection, support and repair. They are commonly fitted to chairs, stools, sofas, display furniture and commercial seating.

Different glides use different fixing methods, so check whether you need a screw-in, nail-in, knock-in or push-in style before ordering.

Footstool Frames

Footstool frames are useful for upholstery workshops, furniture makers and repair projects where a strong, ready-made base is needed.

They are suitable for building or repairing footstools, ottomans and small upholstered furniture, helping create a neat, stable and professional finish.

Suitable for Trade, Upholstery and Furniture Repair Work

This category is designed for both trade and domestic use. It is suitable for upholsterers, furniture makers, repair workshops, interior fit-out companies, contract seating suppliers, hospitality furniture repairs and general home furniture repairs.

Typical uses include replacing broken sofa feet, repairing chair legs, fitting floor-protecting glides, restoring traditional armchairs, adding castors to footstools, updating furniture with metal legs and stocking upholstery workshops with everyday furniture fittings.

What to Check Before Ordering

Before ordering furniture feet, castors or glides, check the existing furniture carefully. Measure the height, width, diameter, stem size, socket size or plate size where needed.

For castors, check whether the fitting uses a grip neck, screw plate, cup, socket or stem fixing. For glides, check whether the fitting is nail-in, screw-in, knock-in or push-in.

Also consider the weight of the furniture and where it will be used. A decorative wooden foot, a floor-protecting glide and a load-bearing castor all have different jobs to do.
