How to Choose Furniture Legs: Metal, Aluminium and Plastic

Legs shape both the look and the strength of a sofa or bed base. Consider load, height, thread and finish together.

• Metal legs: strong and modern, in gold, chrome, black, bronze and rose, 10–90 cm.
• Aluminium legs: light, decorative and corrosion resistant; 15/18/20 cm.
• Plastic legs: economical, in wood-look and colour options.

Match the leg bolt to the tee nut in the frame — usually 5/16", 3/8", M8 or M10 — and use centre legs on long sofas and bed bases. See all legs.
