Furniture castors 

What type of furniture is best suited to furniture castors?

Furniture castors are generally suitable for pieces of furniture that need to be moved regularly or require a flexible arrangement. These include, for example, small tables, cabinets, mobile pedestals or plant tubs. Larger and heavier pieces of furniture such as sofas or large cupboards can also be fitted with specially manufactured heavy-duty castors to make them more manoeuvrable.

What types of furniture castors are there and how do they differ?

There are various types of furniture castors that differ in terms of material, size, load capacity and area of application. These include swivel castors, fixed castors, appliance castors, transport castors and many more. Swivel castors enable flexible steering, while fixed castors ensure a stable standing position. Apparatus castors are often designed for use in industrial environments and are characterised by a high load-bearing capacity. Choosing the right castors depends on the specific requirements of the piece of furniture and the intended use.

How do I choose the right castors for my furniture?

When choosing furniture castors, it is important to consider various factors, including the size and weight of the piece of furniture, the flooring on which it is to be moved and the desired manoeuvrability. It is advisable to choose castors with a load capacity that can easily support the weight of the piece of furniture. The castors should also move smoothly and be easy to manoeuvre on the respective floor covering to avoid scratches or damage.
