FAQs
How do I know if I need M8 fittings?
The most reliable method is to take an M8 nut (which has an 8mm internal diameter across its flats) and try to screw it onto the existing bolt on your furniture leg. If it fits securely, you have an M8 fitting. A tape measure is not accurate for bolt thread sizes.
Can these legs be used on a bed frame?
Yes, if your bed frame has the correct M8 bolt fittings, these legs can be used to provide height and a decorative element.
What is the weight capacity of these legs?
The product information does not specify a weight capacity. However, they are designed for standard furniture and should provide adequate support when attached correctly to furniture with compatible fittings.
Do I need to sand the legs before painting?
It is recommended to lightly sand the raw wood legs before applying any paint or stain to ensure better adhesion and a smoother finish.
Are these legs sold individually?
This product is typically sold as a set of four legs.
What if my furniture has pre-drilled holes for screws, not bolts?
These legs are specifically designed for bolt-through fittings (M8). If your furniture uses wood screws, you would need legs with a self-fixing plate and appropriate screw holes.
Troubleshooting
Legs do not screw in fully.
Verify that your furniture has M8 (8mm) threaded inserts. If the thread feels different, you may have M6 or M10 fittings, or the insert may be damaged. Do not force the leg.
Wobbly furniture after attaching legs.
Ensure all four legs are screwed in to the same depth and are securely tightened. Check that the furniture's mounting points are level and undamaged. You may need to use a shim if the furniture's base is uneven.
Desire a different color finish.
The raw wood is designed for customisation. Sand the legs smooth and apply your preferred paint, stain, or varnish, following product instructions for best results.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Verify Fitting: Crucially, confirm your furniture requires an M8 (8mm) bolt fitting. The best way is to try an M8 nut on your existing leg fitting; if it fits snugly, you have M8. Do not use a tape measure.
- Prepare Surface: Ensure the mounting points on your furniture are clean and free of debris.
- Attach Legs: Screw the legs directly into the pre-drilled, threaded inserts on your furniture. Tighten securely by hand.
Compatibility:
- These legs are designed for furniture with M8 (8mm) bolt fittings. Ensure your furniture has corresponding threaded inserts.

Care:
- For the raw wood finish, dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
- If painting or staining, follow the manufacturer's instructions for your chosen finish. Ensure adequate ventilation.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the wood and any applied finish.
