The future belongs to interior aesthetics, because in a house where everything is in harmony, it is pleasant and comfortable not only physically, but also emotionally. Every year, interior designers surprise art connoisseurs in detail with a variety of innovations, including adjustable metal screw supports.
In the design of modern cabinet furniture, it is important that, if necessary, the design can be transformed, modified, adjusted. The screw support in this case is the ideal solution.
The scope of adjustable screw supports is the furniture industry. In the production of cabinet furniture, adjustable screw feet are an alternative replacement for standard factory furniture legs. Everything is explained by the functionality of such a device and ease of operation.
Screw support: what is this design?
The screw support looks like a screw with a cap made of metal or plastic. It cuts into the end of the base of the piece of furniture with the help of a counter element. The mechanism of action of the structure resembles the work of a screw jack. Using a screw support in furniture design, the manufacturerallows the user to adjust the height of the product independently and without much effort. You can be one hundred percent sure of the reliability of such a design: the support is selected based on the performance characteristics and parameters of the piece of furniture for which the element is used. I would like to note that this design in terms of its performance is superior to classic furniture legs.
This is a very comfortable and functional item. Furniture screw legs can be adjusted to the millimeter.
Features of screw supports
The model range is represented by products with a cap diameter from 17 to 120 mm.
In addition, there are several types of adjustable feet:
- Articulated. They are used when it is necessary to smooth out the unevenness of the floor. Thanks to the hinged base, you have the opportunity to change the angle of inclination of the base point relative to the furniture composition as a whole or its individual part.
- Rotary-articulated. Adjustable screw supports for furniture, which are based on a swivel-hinge element that allows you to adjust the distance from the floor using a key. In this case, the need to lift the furniture structure is eliminated. Such supports are covered with a special chrome coating and, becoming a natural part of the furniture, do not spoil its aesthetic appearance.
- Felt padded feet. A special protective layer applied to the support helps protect the floor from damage.
According to the shape of the base, adjustable screw supports are:
- round;
- square;
- rectangular;
- hex;
- conical;
- flat;
- convex;
- grooved.
Thanks to a wide range of adjustable feet, you can easily choose the model of the product that you need. Such adjustable screw supports for furniture can always be purchased by making an individual order that suits your interior.
Advantages of structures on screw supports
Of the advantages of screw supports, it is worth highlighting the ability to level uneven floors. You can adjust the height and angle of the structure so that it takes the most stable position. In the past, problems with uneven floors were solved as follows: wooden blocks, plywood or cardboard were placed under the furniture to compensate for drops or distortions. Now there is a simpler and more aesthetic solution - adjustable screw supports.
How to mount the screw post?
Another important advantage is the democratic price of the product.
In large-scale constructions, not very aesthetic steps in the form of screw supports are installed so that the false panel covers the technical detail. Of the methods for adjusting the height of a structural element, namely the support, there are:
- mechanical action on the support by rotating the hinged base;
- usinga screwdriver or a hex wrench, which is used to tighten the adjustable screw supports by running the tool through a special opening in the bottom of a piece of furniture.
This way you can adjust the height of a piece of furniture, whether it's a closet, wall or bookshelf, without emptying it and spending a lot of time folding things.
