Furniture Castors & Rollers - Light & Heavy Duty Industrial Wheels for Furniture

Why castors for furniture?

Both wheels and castors are meant to be attached to a larger object so that the object can be moved easily.

However, there is a considerable difference between these two objects. A wheel is limited with just one spinning direction because it just has one axis. On the other hand, a castor is more sophisticated. It contains a wheel in its design, but because of a flexible mounting system, it can move in different directions. Castors are most recommended for objects that should be moved easily. Therefore, currently, a castor is more popular for most furniture.

Furniture castors are an excellent choice for almost any type of furniture, especially when this furniture must be moved often.

How to attach furniture castors?

Castors can easily be attached to your furniture. It is even almost as easy as moving the furniture with castors. Adding castors to your closet, desk or display just takes a few easy steps.

1.   The first step is to turn the furniture upside down. If the furniture is heavy, you might need someone to help with this. When your object is upside down you can decide which type of castor you need and where to place it.
2.   Build a solid corner. When you check the surface of your furniture, you can see if the corners are solid enough to attach a castor. From here you can decide which castor you need and how to attach it. Sometimes, when the corner surface isn’t solid enough, you can fix this by adding some wooden pieces on each corner. After you added the wooden pieces to strengthen the footing, it is possible to attach the castors. If you don’t think this is possible, we also have ladder castors which you can attach to the side of your furniture.  
3.   Add the castors to your furniture. Pre-drill the screw holes on the bottom or in the wooden pieces. After this, attach the flat plate with some screws and you are ready to go!
