Hey there! I’m a supplier of Aluminum Table Bases, and I often get asked about how to install these bases. So, I thought I’d break it down for you in this blog post. Aluminum Table Bases
First off, let’s talk about why aluminum table bases are a great choice. Aluminum is lightweight, which makes it easy to move around, yet it’s also incredibly strong and durable. It doesn’t rust like some other metals, so it’ll last you a long time, even in humid environments. And let’s not forget about the sleek look it gives to any table.
What You’ll Need
Before you start the installation process, you’ll need to gather a few tools. You’ll need a drill, a screwdriver (either a Phillips or flathead, depending on the screws), a measuring tape, and a level. It’s also a good idea to have some safety gear, like safety glasses and gloves.
Step 1: Prepare the Tabletop
The first thing you need to do is prepare the tabletop. Lay it down on a flat surface. Make sure it’s clean and free of any debris. Use the measuring tape to find the center of the tabletop. This is where you’ll attach the table base. Mark the center point with a pencil.
Step 2: Check the Base
Take a good look at your aluminum table base. Make sure all the parts are included and in good condition. There should be a mounting plate and some screws. If there are any parts missing or damaged, contact me right away.
Step 3: Attach the Mounting Plate
Place the mounting plate on the center point of the tabletop that you marked earlier. Align the holes in the mounting plate with the pre – drilled holes in the tabletop. If there aren’t any pre – drilled holes, you’ll need to use the drill to make them. Make sure the holes are the right size for the screws that came with the base.
Once the holes are aligned, use the screwdriver to insert the screws. Tighten them firmly, but don’t over – tighten. Over – tightening can damage the tabletop or the mounting plate.
Step 4: Assemble the Base
Now it’s time to assemble the base. Most aluminum table bases come in a few pieces that you need to put together. Usually, there are legs and a cross – bar or some kind of support structure.
Start by attaching the legs to the cross – bar. There are usually pre – drilled holes and bolts for this. Insert the bolts through the holes and use a wrench to tighten them. Make sure the legs are evenly spaced and at the same angle.
Step 5: Attach the Base to the Mounting Plate
Once the base is assembled, it’s time to attach it to the mounting plate on the tabletop. Lift the base and align the holes in the base with the holes in the mounting plate. Insert the screws and tighten them using the screwdriver.
Step 6: Check the Level
After the base is attached, use the level to check if the table is level. Place the level on the tabletop in different directions. If the table isn’t level, you can adjust the legs. Some bases have adjustable feet that you can turn to raise or lower the legs.
Troubleshooting
Sometimes, things don’t go as smoothly as planned. If you have trouble aligning the holes, try using a drill bit to slightly enlarge the holes. But be careful not to make them too big.
If the table is wobbly even after adjusting the legs, check if the floor is uneven. You can use shims under the legs to make the table stable.
