They are suitable for a wide range of furniture, including bed bases, sofas, chairs, cabinets, and footstools.

Troubleshooting

Furniture is wobbly after attaching gliders.

Ensure all gliders are securely attached and that the furniture base is level. Check that the gliders are correctly positioned on each support point and that the furniture's weight is evenly distributed.

Furniture does not glide smoothly.

Verify that the gliders are clean and free of debris. Ensure the floor surface is also clear. Check that the correct type of glider is used for the specific floor surface (e.g., hard floor vs. carpet).

Gliders are not staying attached.

Confirm that the furniture's base is suitable for the attachment method of the gliders. If necessary, consider using appropriate screws or strong adhesive (compatible with both the furniture and glider material) for a more permanent fix, ensuring the furniture's structural integrity is not compromised.

Noticeable scratching on the floor despite using gliders.

Inspect the gliders for embedded debris or damage. Clean the gliders thoroughly. Ensure they are the correct type for your flooring and are consistently making full contact with the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the furniture piece is safely lifted or tilted to access its base.
  2. Remove any existing feet or glides.
  3. Position one Hi-Q Furnishings glider at each corner or support point of the furniture base.
  4. Securely attach the glider according to the furniture's design (e.g., screwing in, pressing into place, or using adhesive if applicable to the furniture's base).
  5. Carefully lower the furniture onto the gliders.

Compatibility:

These gliders are designed for a wide range of furniture, including bed frames, sofas, chairs, cabinets, tables, and footstools. They are best suited for furniture with a flat or slightly contoured base where the glider can be securely affixed. Ensure the weight of your furniture is within the load-bearing capacity of the gliders.

Care:

To maintain the gliders, periodically wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish. Check the gliders regularly for wear and tear, especially if the furniture is moved frequently. Ensure they remain securely attached to prevent issues.
