FAQs
What is the maximum weight capacity of these hairpin legs?
These legs are guaranteed to support up to 300KG, making them exceptionally strong for various furniture projects.
Are these legs suitable for outdoor furniture?
Yes, they have a professional powder-coated finish suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. However, periodic checks and touch-ups might be needed in harsh outdoor conditions to maintain their finish.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a screwdriver or drill compatible with the provided screws. All necessary screws and floor protectors are included in the package.
Can I cut the legs to a custom height?
It is not recommended to cut the legs as this could compromise the structural integrity and finish. We offer a wide range of sizes to fit most needs.
What is the difference between twin and triple rod styles?
The twin rod style has two rods per leg, suitable for most standard furniture. The triple rod style offers enhanced stability and is recommended for larger or heavier applications.
How do I clean and maintain the legs?
For indoor use, wipe with a damp cloth. For outdoor use, periodically inspect the coating and touch up any damaged areas with metal paint to prevent rust.
What is the return policy if I'm not satisfied?
DT Ironcraft offers a 30-day money-back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the product.
Troubleshooting
Legs wobble after installation.
Ensure all screws are fully tightened. Check if the tabletop surface is perfectly flat. If the floor is uneven, the rubber protectors may need adjustment, or consider shims.
Screws do not seem to hold securely.
Verify you are using the correct size screws for your tabletop material. For softer woods like pine, ensure the screw pilot holes are not too large. For very dense hardwoods or thick surfaces, consider using longer screws or anchoring into a thicker section.
Rust appears on the legs (especially outdoors).
This can occur if the powder coating is compromised. Clean the affected area thoroughly, sand lightly if needed, and apply a rust-inhibiting metal primer followed by a compatible metal paint. Check and reapply protective coating periodically.
Difficulty aligning screw holes.
Slightly loosen all screws for a leg before fully tightening them one by one. Ensure the leg is positioned accurately before starting to screw.

Care:
