Can I use it for a chair to glideon carpet?

In a word, no. You need a different product, I think. Mine I use to keep my bed from gliding. Put under the wheels, called castors, of my bed these do a reasonable job of making the bed stay put. They might work as you describe if you could modify the edges. With a file, one might bevel the edges so that the chair might glide. I couldn't guarantee any success with this idea. In my opinion, this product wouldn't slide on carpet unless you bevel the edges. If you modified the product in this way and it didn't work, I doubt you could then return them. If I were you, I'd ask someone in a furniture store if such a product exists for the application you describe. Good luck! In a word, no. You need a different product, I think.

No. It is generally to keep a bed or couch from sliding on hard wood floors

My opinion is that these are best used to sit items in that you do not want to cause indentations in your carpet. The slider is all hard plastic so trying to move your item causes the item to slip out of the slider...and then you have to pick it up to move it.

I suppose you could, but with the way the padding is you might not be able to roll the chair around very easily. It would probably get caught where the pieces connect as well.

Hi-Thanks for your inquiry-If its just a stationary chair that's not moving it could be used.For a moving chair definitely not.Please advise with any question-

It can be if you buff it enough. It would be very slippery on floors. It is primarily for furniture and can be used on antiques. I have been using it since the 80s.

I suppose you could build it without wheels but I would add glides to it so it won't snag on carpet or scratch wood. It's a nice chair.

Don't know; test a piece in an inconspicuous place. That's what I did on my chair. I know it's great for carpets but would be very careful on fabric

You should be able to do that however depending on the surface it will be on the legs might damage the floor if hardwood. Carpet would probably be ok. I cannot say for sure that it will be the best solution however because the wheels may add an additional structural element as far as safety

It needs to be on an elevated surface, otherwise you will be sitting on the floor. The legs are only about 4 inches off the ground. Otherwise yes, you can put it on carpet. Hope that helps.

Yes! The type of screw (at least 2 1/2 inches minimum) use will depend on what lies underneath the carpet.

It should be fine. I have used it on a hardwood but it should be more stable on carpet.

Probably not well. The top of my desk is glass and I did try it -- it needed more friction as the roller couldn't grip. As for carpet, shorter types might work, but I'd stay away from longer versions.

I think so. I'm using it on a hardwood floor to put a bucket of fireplace woods. I don't move the bucket too often, only the time I vacuum around the area. But I've never have a problem. It may move around more than a plastic floor mat though. It's still tough enough to move around a chair, I think.

I guess you could, but they are slippery on carpet and you may not have much control on how fast you glide.

I'm sorry, we haven't used it on carpet. Depends on whether it's a smooth or nubby carpet. If it's smooth I'm sure it would do a nice job.

I have carpet and tile in my kitchen, so the chair does not slide well. The feet are plastic. I plan to look for a small slider that I can glue on to the bottom of the chair. Without protection on the bottom, I would not use them on a hard wood floor. I am sure the chair would scratch the floor. Perhaps Flash Furniture could answer that question for you. Otherwise, I am very happy with my two chairs.

I don't see why not! I use mine on the thin carpet at work and I usually can get a couple extra hours of standing in at a time. It's basically like a thick, firm cushion.

I would imagine that would depend on how plush the carpet is. Worst case, go to a local building supply store and have them cut you out a piece of plywood to match the base.
