Saddle Feet

Saddle feet for chairs and furniture are specialised external clip-on floor protection components designed specifically for tubular applications where the tubing runs parallel or at an angle to the floor surface. Unlike internal insert glides that fit inside tubular legs, saddle feet clip over the outside of round, oval, or shaped tubing, providing an innovative solution for furniture designs where traditional end caps or inserts cannot be used.

Manufactured from premium materials including durable LDPE plastic, high-strength Nylon 6/6 and robust polyethylene, our saddle feet are carefully engineered to deliver exceptional grip, floor protection and stability across both commercial and domestic environments throughout the UK. These versatile components serve multiple functions: raising tubular frameworks to required heights, adding stability to chair and furniture bases, increasing grip on various floor surfaces and preventing scratching or damage to expensive flooring installations including hardwood, laminate, vinyl, tile and polished concrete.

Our comprehensive saddle feet range encompasses three distinct product categories, each designed for specific applications and requirements. Saddle glides prioritise smooth movement and friction reduction, featuring felt, polyethylene, or polyurethane bases that enable effortless furniture repositioning whilst protecting floor surfaces. Saddle feet focus on adding height and grip, ideal for stabilising furniture on hard surfaces and preventing unwanted movement or slipping. Saddle bases provide maximum stability for tubular chair frames and furniture, distributing weight effectively and ensuring secure floor contact.
