Choosing the Best Table Leg Format

Legs are offered in a few different formats - single legs, end legs, frame legs. Each have pros and cons related to strength, stability, build and usage.

Seating Positions

Generally speaking, corner leg formats such as Hairpin Legs & Single Pins provide the most flexible seating arrangement.

Fixed Leg Options

For end leg and full frame formats, a little consideration is needed when pairing legs with a table top to ensure you achieve a seating layout that will work best for you.

6 - 8 People: 180cm x 80cm Top

Insetting legs in from the end by around 30cm allows for comfortable top-of-table seating at the slight expense of legroom and chair tucking for the side seats.

4 - 6 People: 150cm x 75cm Top

As above, insetting the legs allows for comfortable top-of-table seating as the expense of side seating legroom.

4 People: 120cm x 60cm

A 2x2 seating layout works well with 58cm wide legs at the ends. For a more flexible 1x4 arrangement, corner legs such as hairpin legs are a better choice. With corner legs it is possible to squeeze 6 small people / children onto a table, espeically when pared with stools or benches.
