Do these work with furniture with a particle board backing?

I don't think it would hold. I think it would just bust through the particle board.

No. You need to attach it to a part of the furniture that the particle board is attached/nailed. The backing alone will not sustain the screws for the straps. Hope this helps!

i used them on an old french door, so i used them on actual wood. i think they would definitely work on particle board, however, if you have children (or pets) who like to climb, there's a possibility that the screws could pull out after a long period of time.

As long as you can nail them into the center of the leg, they will work, but may look a little weird on close inspection. But who, besides you, will be doing that. These did seem a bit small for 1", but they're functional on my chairs.

Yes they do but I did not find that they held up well. They show dirt very easily as well, but we were probably harder on them since my husband is very tough on furniture and we have 2 young girls. Not expensive and if you like to change things for a new look then they might be perfect.

Yes but they don't tuck all the way under to the chair backs. We have been very happy with the table and matching chairs.

I believe they will but you would have to use gentle pressure to get them in. Perhaps the smallest size would work best in soft wood.

I believe so. They are 1/2" thick dense particle board. However, I imagine they chip easily when drilled. A better solution would be to install horizontal cleats to carry the weight of the shelves with vertical support to carry the weight if the cleats & shelves. Another alternative would be to install 2 or more 1' x 2" x 3/4" vertical strips to drill for shelf pins My concern is chipping the particle board when drilling, or accidentally penetrating it.

Probably. They adapt to a lot of different kinds of furniture leg/foot types. I have mine under the legs of my modern style couch which are like pipes with flattened ends for feet.

I'd say just tap them in. Our chair legs are square, and they worked fine. The tip that you install is the only thing that will be coming into contact with the floor. It does not need to fill the entire tip of your furniture's legs. Now if you were talking about a rectangular leg tip that is six inches long, then I probably would tap in two of the tips for each leg. By the way, I had doubts about these tips being able to be hammered into our furniture legs (very hard wood), but I held the tip carefully and took careful aim with a hard rubber mallet. Do not use a metal hammer. They went in easily, and none have worked loose from the legs.

I'm not a Contractor or Builder etc., but I'm sure they would work with glue. I ordered several of these and used small nails, four along the back edge and three at the bottom of the lip. The only problem I would have with the glue would be the mess if/when you or someone after you would want to go back to the natural hardwood.

Yes, they do. I use them on a very heavy wool rug and my desk stays in place perfectly.

yes backing removes easily, and they stick on tight and stay in place.Work very well, I have them on all furniture on my wood and tile floors

They don't because they do not attach, the furniture just sits on them. I did not like or use after I got them.

I used them for livingroom endtables. They fit the size of the furniture I have, plus I have each one in front of a window and the height on the table is just high enough to look really nice from outside without blocking the view out the window. My answer would be yes, they will work.

Yes they will slip if you only use a few. The more you use the less they slip. Also anchoring the corners with weights or furniture is helpful.

Nope. They are of very sturdy quality, but are not wide and flexible enough to work for that width. I found out the hard way, as they did not work for me. I kept them and hope to be able to use them for something else.

I bought these to use to level a refrigerator sitting on a concrete floor. I could not make them work correctly, so I went back to using wooden shims. The package had already been opened, otherwise I would have returned them. They might work perfectly for what you describe, partly because they are semi-transparent and won't be so obvious and partly because they are not wood which might not do well in an outside area. They will probably be fine for something that does not move -- i.e., a table or chairs. But, definitely not for furniture that will be moved around -- i.e., dining chairs.

If you use wood screws I don't see it being a problem. Is it real wood or particle that may not work with particle board
