FAQs
What types of floors can these pads be used on?
These pads are designed to protect wood, tile, and vinyl flooring surfaces.
How are these furniture pads installed?
They feature a hollow nail design and are installed by tapping them into the bottom of furniture legs with a hammer.
Can I use these on metal furniture legs?
These pads are specifically designed for furniture with wooden legs and the hollow nail design is intended for wood. They are not recommended for metal legs.
How often should I check or replace the pads?
It is recommended to periodically check the pads for wear and tear. Replace them if they become loose, damaged, or the felt surface is significantly worn to ensure continued protection.
Will the beige color be noticeable on my dark wood furniture?
The beige color is a neutral tone designed to blend in. While it may be visible on very dark furniture, it is generally discreet. For completely unnoticeable protection, consider furniture glides designed for specific color matching if available.
Are these pads suitable for very heavy furniture?
While durable, for extremely heavy furniture that is moved very frequently, monitor the pads closely for wear. Ensure the nail is securely fastened to support the weight.
Troubleshooting
Pad is not staying attached
Ensure the nail is fully hammered into the furniture leg. If the wood is very hard, pre-drilling a small pilot hole might help. Check if the pad is the correct size for the furniture leg.
Furniture still makes noise
Verify that the felt surface of the pad is in full contact with the floor. Ensure all legs have pads attached and that the pads are not damaged or worn out. Check for debris stuck to the felt.
Pad is difficult to hammer in
Ensure you are using a standard hammer and striking the center of the nail. If the wood is exceptionally dense, a pilot hole may be necessary. Avoid excessive force which could damage the furniture or the pad.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the bottom of the furniture leg is clean and dry.
- Position the Felt Gard pad over the center of the wooden leg.
- Using a hammer, gently tap the nail in the center of the pad until it is securely fastened to the furniture leg.
Compatibility:
These pads are best suited for furniture with flat-bottomed wooden legs. They are designed to protect wood, tile, and vinyl flooring. They may not be suitable for furniture with metal or plastic legs, or for use on very delicate surfaces where even felt might cause concern.
Care:
Periodically check the pads for wear and tear. If a pad becomes loose or the felt surface is significantly worn, it should be replaced. Clean the surface of the pads with a dry or slightly damp cloth as needed, avoiding harsh chemicals.
