Benefits of Using GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides
Investing in GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides offers numerous advantages that enhance both the functionality and longevity of your outdoor furniture:
- Surface Protection: One of the primary benefits of using threaded glides is their ability to protect surfaces from scratches and damage. By providing a barrier between the furniture legs and the ground, these glides prevent unsightly marks on decks, patios, and other surfaces.
- Enhanced Mobility: Moving heavy outdoor furniture can be a challenge. GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides make it easier to slide furniture without lifting, reducing strain on your back and arms. This feature is particularly beneficial when rearranging seating for gatherings or cleaning outdoor areas.
- Noise Reduction: Have you ever experienced the annoying scraping noise when moving furniture? Our threaded glides help minimize this noise by providing a smooth surface that allows for quiet movement. Enjoy peaceful moments in your outdoor space without disruptive sounds.
- Increased Longevity: By protecting your furniture from wear and tear, GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides contribute to the overall longevity of your outdoor items. This means fewer replacements and repairs over time, making them a cost-effective solution.
- Versatile Applications: These glides are not limited to just one type of furniture. They can be used on various items such as chairs, tables, benches, stools, and more. This versatility makes them an ideal choice for anyone looking to enhance their outdoor living experience.
How to Choose the Right Threaded Glides
Selecting the appropriate threaded glides is crucial for ensuring optimal performance. Here are some key factors to consider when making your choice:
Size and Fit: The first step in choosing the right glide is measuring the diameter of your furniture legs. Our GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides come in various sizes to fit different leg dimensions. Use a caliper or measuring tape to get an accurate measurement before selecting a glide.
Weight Capacity: Consider the weight of the furniture or equipment you will be using the glides with. Each glide has a specified weight capacity; ensure that you choose one that can support your items without compromising stability.
Environmental Factors: If your furniture will be exposed to moisture or extreme weather conditions, opt for glides specifically designed for outdoor use. GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides are made from weather-resistant materials that can withstand rain, sun exposure, and temperature fluctuations.
Installation Type: Easily installable with a simple screw-in design, each threaded glide measures 28mm in diameter and includes an M8 thread with a height of 25mm. For further size details, refer to the dimensional image. Be sure to confirm thread compatibility with your furniture before making a purchase.
Installation Guide
Installing GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides is a straightforward process that can be completed in just a few steps:
- Measure Furniture Legs: Use a measuring tape to determine the diameter of each furniture leg. This measurement will help you select the correct size glide before purchasing it.
- Prepare the Glide: If necessary, unscrew any existing feet or pads from the bottom of your furniture legs before attaching the new threaded glide.
- Attach the Glide: Align the glide with the hole at the bottom of the leg and screw it in securely. Make sure it’s tight enough to stay in place but not so tight that it damages the leg material.
- Test Stability: Once all glides are installed, gently test each piece of furniture by moving it slightly to ensure stability and proper fit.
With these simple steps, you can easily install GorillaOutdoor™ Threaded Glides on all your outdoor furniture.
