can you attach these to casters? In other words, I would like to use it as a rolling cube open at the top

I would say not because the sides are adhered with 3M tape, not structural nails or screws. If you screwed the parts together with wood screws, perhaps, but I would look for a different product for this. The stability comes from the top.

These particular models do not support casters. Also note that "open at top" is not a recommended configuration. The backing board (which would become the bottom of the cube, in an open-at-top scenario) is not meant to support any weight (nor could it - it's more akin to a thick piece of paper than a wall). Way Basics does offer a cube that supports casters but it too is only meant for open-on-side configurations, not open-at-top. See http://www.waybasics.com/home-storage.html for those.

Hi Spring, Yes. Please note all customization is at your own risk and will void warranty. Many customers have customized, please be familiar with the product before doing so.Jimmy ChiangWay Basics, Founderjimmy@waybasics.com

You probably could do that. They are made from some material that is somewhere between particle board and paper, but very thick layered paper. They are actually extremely strong, but I'm pretty sure you could nail into them to attach wheels.

Amendment- I do remember that the backing is a thin material, so the other answer is correct, it wouldn't support that. Sorry, I didn't remember that.

The legs have screw-in feet with 1/4-inch screw diameters. There are holes in the bottom center of the legs to accommodate these screws. If you can find casters with the same size shanks, you could replace the feet with the casters.

I wouldn't recommend it; the unit's it not set up for them. It wouldn't be impossible, though. You could search on Amazon for "casters set of 4", and pick some 2" ones that swivel. Mounting them with screws might be difficult, so consider a strong adhesive, like gorilla glue. Just avoid getting the glue in the center of the base plate, which would nullify the swivel feature.

I would think you could. The stools come with protective tips that slip onto the legs. Most likely, casters could be inserted in place of these tips, though I have not attempted this.

Do not buy these for that purpose. I had the same problem with my bed last year and bought some wonderful casters from Amazon that immediately corrected the problem.I will find the name of the product in the morning and get back to you so that annoying problem with the bed can be resolved. Until then ....

Someone else put them together for me, Amy, so I'm not sure. However, they're very stable on the casters -- they don't move around unless you push them. They're very heavy-duty, and very heavy, period, so I wouldn't worry about them moving. Mine have been in the same spot for months. Hope this helps.

Hello! I had this piece for a short while (had to return it as the size wasn't right for me) so I can't say for sure if casters would work, especially given the size and "curve" of the legs at the bottom. However I can say the piece is very sturdy, so that could help!

I wouldn't recommend trying to attach casters. I agree that this cabinet is too large and heavy to be moved on casters. There is no secure area on the bottom of the unit to put casters. Try getting a unit that has casters or wheels as original equipment.

Not designed for casters; no casters were included. You might be able to rig something on it personally to make casters work. Joey

I assume you mean wheels. Any caster that comes with a 3/8 inch bolt for screwing in should work. Remove one of the adjustable feet and take to a hardware store. Shouldn't be a problem to match the thread on a caster.

You "could" stack them if you don't put casters on ANY of them. But there is nothing to lock them into one another so they would be simply balancing on top of one another. If you had them loaded with heavy items in the drawers that might keep them from getting knocked side ways when you pulled out drawers but I don't think stacking them would be too effective unless you put Velcro on the bottom of each cart so that they literally "Stuck" together.

yes, just make sure the caster's pegs are small enough to fit in the -- pretty small -- holes.

I don't see why not. They are identical to the standard wheel your chair probably came with, but the plastic (greyish in the picture) is slightly softer/more rubbery than the standard caster.

I do not believe that the metal frame ( hollow tubing) is sufficiently strong or thick to attach casters. The bed is very light and can be easily manipulated ( tilt up) or moved when vacuuming. It has made my clean up around the dog bed much easier.

No, the side grid in the picture is replicated for the bottom. You would have to put in on a piece of plywood or something to mount casters.

My recollection is that you remove the plugs at the bottom of the posts (push through other end w/ anything thinner), and then fit the casters in. Hope that helps!

You probably could - I think the biggest problem would be finding casters that would fit, I don't know where you would look for them.
