FAQs

What is the weight capacity of these hairpin legs?

Each set of DT Ironcraft Hairpin Legs is guaranteed to support up to 300KG, making them exceptionally strong for furniture projects.

Are these legs suitable for outdoor furniture?

Yes, the professional powder-coated legs are designed for both indoor and outdoor use. However, for raw steel finishes, applying a sealant is recommended to prevent rust with prolonged outdoor exposure.

What sizes are available?

The legs are available in 10 different sizes, ranging from 10cm (4 inches) to 71cm (28 inches).

What types of rods are offered?

They are available in both twin (2-rod) and triple (3-rod) styles, offering different levels of stability.

Do I need to buy screws separately?

No, free screws are included with the hairpin legs to help you start your project immediately.

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.

How do I clean and maintain the legs?

For indoor use, wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed, drying thoroughly. For outdoor use, consider a sealant for raw steel and clean regularly.

Troubleshooting

Legs are wobbly after installation

Ensure all screws are fully tightened. Check that the surface the legs are attached to is level and stable. For uneven floors, the rubber protectors can offer minor adjustments; for significant issues, consider shims.

Screws don't fit or strip

Use the correct screwdriver type (e.g., Phillips head). If pre-drilling into hard wood, ensure the pilot hole is adequately sized for the screw. Do not overtighten.

Rust appears on raw steel legs (outdoor use)

This is expected with raw steel and prolonged exposure. Clean the rusted area with a wire brush, apply a rust inhibitor, and then coat with a clear sealant or appropriate metal paint. For future projects, consider a powder-coated finish if rust is a concern.

Uneven height between legs

Verify that the legs are mounted on a perfectly flat surface. Minor discrepancies can sometimes be compensated by the rubber floor protectors. Ensure you purchased legs of the same stated size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Prepare Surface: Ensure the surface you are attaching the legs to is flat and strong enough to support the weight. For wood, pre-drilling pilot holes can prevent splitting.
  2. Position Legs: Place the hairpin legs in your desired position on the underside of your furniture piece.
  3. Attach Legs: Use the provided screws to secure the legs through the pre-drilled holes in the mounting bracket. Ensure screws are snug but do not overtighten.
  4. Install Protectors: Attach the included rubber protectors to the bottom of each leg to prevent scratching floors.

Compatibility:

These legs are compatible with a wide range of materials including solid wood, reclaimed wood, tabletops, benches, and existing furniture carcasses. They are suitable for DIY furniture projects, upcycling, and refurbishing existing pieces.

Care:

  • Indoor Use: Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly.
  • Outdoor Use: While the powder coating offers protection, for prolonged outdoor exposure, it is recommended to apply a clear sealant to the raw steel portion of the legs to prevent rust. Regularly wipe clean and dry.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check screws for tightness.
