Know before you buy
No, these legs do not come with pre-drilled mounting holes. This allows you to choose the specific mounting hardware and attachment method that best suits your table apron construction.
Each order includes one individual leg. You will need to purchase four legs to complete a standard dining table.
Yes, Alder is a versatile hardwood that accepts both stains and paints very well. Because it is a natural wood product, we recommend sanding lightly and applying a wood conditioner before staining to ensure an even finish.
Yes, the 5-inch square profile provides significant structural support. It is designed to handle the weight of large, heavy dining tables, provided they are properly joined to a sturdy apron system.
The leg is exactly 29 inches tall. While it can be trimmed to a shorter height, keep in mind that doing so will alter the proportions of the square profile and may require re-leveling the base.
