Measure the widest part of the leg that will sit in the opening, on every leg, and enter the largest. Not sure? Choose Roomy. Does the leg lean? How to measure an angled leg.

Fit

The opening is the leg size plus this much room. More room makes a slightly larger riser.

More options

Opening depth

How far the leg sits down into the riser. Deeper holds the leg more surely and costs a little more. On a leg that tapers, measure its size this far up from the floor.

Look

Every look has the same opening and lift. Only the outside changes: a larger one costs more, and its base size is under Your riser.

How much taller

Make these leveling risers

For furniture on an uneven floor. Each riser gets a deeper opening and four thin plates (1, 2, 4 and 8 mm) to drop in under the leg. They raise it by anything up to 15 mm, about 5/8 in, in 1 mm steps, so there is nothing about the floor to measure. How leveling works

Style

Taperedwider at the floor Straight sides

How many

Sold individually. Most furniture needs a set of 4.

Weight on these risers together

The furniture and everything on it, including anyone who sits or lies on it. It is shared between the risers in How many. We need it to take the order: if unsure, round up.

Not for anything a person stands or climbs on. No ladders, step stools, bunk beds or cribs.

Color

My floor is out by more than 5/8 in (15 mm)

The plates raise a leg by up to 5/8 in (15 mm). A leg that needs more gets a taller riser, which costs a little more, and the plates do the rest. To find out what each leg needs:

Stand the furniture where it will live.
Slide coins or cardboard under the low legs until it is level and does not rock. A phone's level app works.
Set How many to the number of legs, then enter how much went under each one.

How far it had to be propped up

Leave 0 for a leg that needed nothing under it. Number the legs any way you like, and note which is which.

The tallest riser goes under the lowest corner. Risers differ by 3/8 in (10 mm) so you can tell them apart. Take the coins and cardboard away before the risers go on. More about a floor that is out by a lot.

We guarantee the opening and the lift match these sizes, within 0.5 mm or 1%, whichever is larger. You measure the leg and we do not check it, so compare the opening with your leg before you order.

A cautious estimate, worked out for a flat-bottomed leg that bears across the size you entered, and for a steady load pressing straight down. A leg on a glide or a hollow tube end carries less. It is not a tested rating.
