Getting started

Three things to know before you order.

Whether you’re a homeowner fixing one chair or a buyer specifying parts for a 200-room hotel, the right product depends on the same three things.

01

What floor are you protecting?

Hardwood, vinyl, and tile need a smooth-faced glide or a self-adhesive pad. Carpet and area rugs need a hard ABS slide. Hollow tube legs need a plug or saddle glide.

02

What does the leg look like?

Solid wood or metal legs take nail-on or self-adhesive products. Hollow tube legs take plugs or saddle glides. Sled-base frames need saddle-mount glides, not individual leg products.

03

How will it be used?

A dining chair pulled in and out a hundred times a day takes more abuse than a side table. Heavier loads, more frequent movement, and harsher environments call for heavier products.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What are furniture floor protectors?

Parts that go between your furniture leg and the floor to stop scratches, dents, and noise. They include glides, slides, pads, plugs, leveling feet, and sled base glides — each for a different furniture geometry and floor type.

What's the difference between glides and slides?

Glides (soft PA6 fiber) are for smooth, hard floors. Slides (hard ABS surface) are for carpet, carpet tile, area rugs, and rough hard floors with grout lines. The floor type decides which one you need.

Can I use these in commercial settings?

Yes. Every product line is engineered to commercial-grade standards and is in daily use at hotels, restaurants, universities, and healthcare facilities.

Do you offer volume pricing?

Yes. Volume pricing is available through our Business Solutions portal for facility, hospitality, and commercial buyers.
