Description
Chrome Round Metal Furniture Leg 50mm Diameter
The Chrome Round Metal Furniture Leg 50mm Diameter is a clean, contemporary furniture support available in three useful heights: 100mm, 120mm and 150mm.
Its straight cylindrical profile and polished chrome finish make it particularly suitable for modern sofas, armchairs, footstools, cabinets, benches and other furniture where the legs remain visible.
All three sizes share the same 50mm diameter, allowing you to choose the height that best suits the furniture without changing the overall style of the leg.
Choose from:
- 100mm high
- 120mm high
- 150mm high

The three height options make it easier to select the correct ground clearance and finished furniture height while maintaining the same chrome leg style.
Choose Your Leg Height
100mm Chrome Round Metal Leg
The 100mm height is the lowest of the three options.
Choose 100mm where:
- A relatively low furniture profile is required
- Only moderate ground clearance is needed
- Existing furniture uses a similar leg height
- You want the chrome leg visible without raising the furniture excessively
This size is particularly useful for sofas, armchairs, footstools and low cabinets.
120mm Chrome Round Metal Leg
The 120mm height provides a useful middle option between the 100mm and 150mm legs.
Choose 120mm where:
- Slightly more floor clearance is required
- 100mm is too low for the furniture
- 150mm would raise the furniture too much
- A balanced mid-height metal leg is preferred
It is a versatile choice for upholstered furniture, cabinets, benches and refurbishment work.
150mm Chrome Round Metal Leg
The 150mm height is the tallest option in this style.
Choose 150mm where:
- Greater floor clearance is required
- A more visibly raised furniture appearance is preferred
- Taller replacement legs are required
- Access beneath the furniture is important
Always check the finished seat, cabinet or furniture height before changing from shorter legs to the 150mm version.
100mm, 120mm or 150mm?
The correct height depends on the furniture and the finished appearance required.
Choose 100mm for the lowest and most discreet option.
Choose 120mm where a little additional clearance is useful without substantially increasing the furniture height.
Choose 150mm where a taller, more raised appearance and greater floor clearance are required.
When replacing existing furniture legs, measure one of the originals before ordering rather than estimating the height.

Polished Chrome Finish
The polished chrome surface provides a bright contemporary appearance that works particularly well with modern upholstery and interior fittings.
Chrome can complement:
- Grey and charcoal upholstery
- Black furniture
- Neutral fabrics
- Contemporary leather furniture
- Chrome handles and fittings
- Modern interior schemes
The smooth round profile gives the furniture a cleaner appearance than a square or corner-style metal leg.
Threaded Furniture Leg Fixing
Each leg uses a threaded fixing stem at the top for connection to a compatible fixing within the furniture frame.
Before ordering, check:
- Existing thread and fitting
- Condition of the furniture-frame fixing
- Available mounting position
- Required leg height
- Number of legs required
Do not force a threaded stem into an incompatible fixing.
If your furniture requires a new threaded insert or fixing, browse T Nuts, D Nuts & Fixings and check the required thread size before ordering.
Replacing Existing Furniture Legs
These chrome legs can be used when existing furniture legs are damaged, missing or being changed as part of a refurbishment.
Before replacing the original legs:
- Support the furniture safely.
- Remove one existing leg where possible.
- Measure its height and diameter.
- Check the threaded fixing.
- Inspect the furniture frame.
- Select the required replacement height.
- Fit the replacement legs securely.
- Check that the furniture sits level.
If the original furniture uses different-height front and rear legs, check each position individually.
Changing Furniture Height
Changing from one leg height to another can noticeably affect the furniture.
For example, moving from a 100mm leg to a 150mm leg raises the furniture by approximately 50mm.
That can affect:
- Sofa or chair seat height
- Ease of sitting down and standing up
- Cabinet height
- Floor clearance
- Overall furniture proportions
For straightforward replacement work, matching the original leg height is normally the safest option.
Floor Protection
The suitability of the leg base will depend on the floor surface and how frequently the furniture is moved.
For timber, laminate and other hard floors, consider whether additional floor protection is required.
Browse Furniture Glides for alternative floor-protection products.
Always check any floor protector regularly and replace it if it becomes worn or damaged.
Metal or Wooden Furniture Legs?
Chrome metal legs provide a clean modern appearance.
For furniture requiring a warmer or more traditional finish, browse Wooden Furniture Feet & Legs.
Choose the Chrome Round Metal Furniture Leg where:
- A contemporary appearance is required
- A polished metal finish suits the furniture
- A straight cylindrical profile is preferred
- 100mm, 120mm or 150mm height is suitable
Choose wooden feet where:
- A traditional furniture appearance is preferred
- A timber finish needs to match other furniture
- A bun, turned, square or decorative leg style better suits the piece
Check Before Ordering
Before ordering, check:
- 50mm diameter
- Required 100mm, 120mm or 150mm height
- Existing threaded fixing
- Furniture-frame construction
- Required finished furniture height
- Number of legs required
- Floor surface
Where replacing an existing furniture leg, remove and measure one original wherever possible.
