Begin with the visible form
Consider how much of the leg will remain visible below the sofa and how the profile relates to the upholstery. Angular, rounded, sculptural and hairpin designs create different visual outlines. Our photographed designs offer starting points; shape alone does not establish strength, material grade or compatibility.
Review the connection to the furniture
Bring the underside drawing into the choice early. A plate that looks suitable in isolation may conflict with a rail, corner block or upholstery attachment. Compare the fixing layout, orientation, height and footprint against the furniture construction. Tell us whether the brief is for an existing style, an adaptation or a new drawing.
Agree the appearance on a physical sample
A screen reference is useful for discussing colour and sheen, but lighting and display settings change the appearance. Identify the visible faces and any particular surface expectations. Agree the material and treatment with the project, then review a physical finish sample before using it as an approval reference.
Define intended use before requesting claims
Tell us how the finished furniture will be used and what loading, durability or other acceptance requirements apply. No universal load capacity follows from a leg photograph. Outdoor use, corrosion resistance, material grades and test performance need specific agreement and supporting evidence.
Compare the complete supply brief
Confirm the number of legs per furniture item, left/right variants, any specified fittings and packing requirements. Sofa legs normally start at 500 pieces, depending on price and project details. The final quantity, sample scope and schedule belong in the quotation; a style choice by itself is not an order specification.
Your preparation checklist
Use this as a working reminder. The checks stay on this page and do not submit or approve an order.
Turn the details into a brief.
Choose an existing design or bring your drawing or physical sample. The project review establishes the dimensions, material, finish, quantity and sample requirements.
