When converting does the table lock into place? How secure is it

Yes it locks into place. If you want to have a complete table you will need two units because 1 unit is only 1/2 of a complete table. My wife and I are 65+ and use it mainly as a bench on our porch since we already have a picnic table for our backyard.

We have used this table all summer long and have had no bad experiences with it.

You need two units; lift the back of one of the benches up and forward to meet the other raised back. They do not lock into place as a table but they are heavy enough that when they meet, they don't move unless you physically move/slide them apart. They are so handy as a bench, then a picnic table. We have two sets that end to end make a nice long table for company if needed.

No, the legs do not lock. And this can be a problem because it makes the table difficult to move if there are things on it. This is because when you lift the table by it's edges, the legs collapse and you will need at least one free hand to reposition the legs before you can set the table down. For this reason, if you want to move the table (other than scooting it a couple of inches), you'll need to remove everything first.

It doesn't have a lock, nor would you want one, as the top lifts up to put in envelopes. We were able to put it in the safe at the venue mid reception. If you give me your email, I'll email you a picture of the gift table....everyone was commenting on it.

it has a loop at one end, so you thread the lock part around a table leg etc and back through the loop so it tightens like a noose. Thats what we do anyway and it works fantastic. Leave it out at the merch booth every night, even when we are playing! as it is collecting emails.

No, they do not lock. However, I've not experienced slippage or collapse. As best as I can describe it, the legs "scissors." One end of the "scissors" is attached securely to the bottom of the shelf. The other side of the "scissors" is ~1" [finished] dowel rod. This dowel rod slides left--&gt;right (or maybe right--&gt;left depending on your perspective). There are two 1"x2" blocks attached to the underside of the table, and then attached to the two blocks is a strip/slat made of what appears to be standard military/industrial grade Aluminum (~97% Al with some magnesium and chromium for tensile strength). This strip/slat about 1/2" in width by 1/8" in thickness. The dowel rod for the "scissors" travels from block-to-block secured by the metal slat. It is possible to pick up the table and move ir, while simultaneously having your fingers on the dowel to ensure that the legs do not collapse while moving, or when you rest the table again on the floor (or other hard surface). I've never had a problem with it.

No, they don't lock, but it shouldn't roll away. I also would not use it as leverage to stand up. It's still the best table I have bought out of the last 3 or 4.

Thanks for all the answers - I have determined that my table's spinning is not normal behavior nor does it work as intended.

I purchased this item for a third party and don't recall weather it can be locked

It's very stable if you lock it down tight and I would use a ruler or tape for setting it rather than the markings on the table

No, they do not. Although, due to the sturdiness of the tables you would not need them to lock.

i turned the table upside down on the floor and unfolded the legs out and firmly lock them in place. been using this table for 3 years with a chow and have not had one problem with it not being stable. if you can't get it to work right call the company or send it back for a new on4e. amazon is easy to work with. i hope this help you, good luck.....jerry williams

the lock can be disassembled.. the programming code are inside on the label.. if those have not been changed by previous users.. the lock user codes should be able to be changed... which position the lock is in is unimportant until the lock is reassembled.. then it should be put back in in the same positions as it was removed.. Good Luck!also if you deleted all prior user codes.. unless they have the programming code.. no further codes can be added... the owner can change the programming code in the same way the user codes are changed.

I haven't tried it on locks, but it always manages to fix my dice when I'm playing an RPG!

Anything is possible, but why go to the trouble? If you need something that locks, pursue that furniture. This is just a cheap end table.

Yes it locks in place very well. With mine it had a slight error where twice it locked a little too well and wouldn't shut.

You have to flip the red lock switch to the unlock position. Located at one edge of the seam in the middle of the table (outer edge). Then the table will unfold. Then lock it once it's open.
