Product Information
Product Overview
A leg mounting plate connects a furniture leg to the body and transfers the load from the leg into the frame. By distributing that load across the plate surface rather than a single screw point, it reduces the risk of the leg separating or the joint cracking. It also sets the angle at which the leg meets the body.
Product Advantages
- Spreads load across the plate surface, reducing strain at the joint.
- Fixes the angle at which the leg meets the body.
- Multiple screw holes provide balanced hold.
- Available in stainless and corrosion-protected surface options.

Technical Drawings
These drawings are here to show how the mechanism works and how it goes together. They are not to scale, so please do not measure off them. The numbers on each drawing match the notes below it. If you need a dimensioned technical drawing for your own project, write to us and we will prepare one.
Hole layout
- 1 Corner mounting holes. The plate screws to the furniture body through these. They are slotted, so the plate still seats correctly if the holes in the body are a few millimetres out.
- 2 The four holes the leg bolts into, in a 2 × 2 pattern and countersunk (cone-shaped mouths). The screw head therefore finishes flush with the plate and the leg sits flat against it.
- 3 Side notch. It leaves clearance where the plate meets a load-bearing rail or a corner profile, so nothing fouls.
Usage Areas
Table legs
carries the joint between top and leg.
Chair assembly
keeps the leg angle fixed.
Coffee table systems
provides balanced load transfer in small-surface furniture.
Sofas and armchairs
used for legs mounted under the frame.
Frequently Asked Questions
What angles is the leg mounting plate produced in?
Options can be produced for both perpendicular and angled connections. Tell us the angle at which the leg meets the body and we can identify the right type.
Why not screw the leg directly into the body?
Direct screwing concentrates the load at one point; in chipboard and MDF bodies especially, the screw hole widens over time, the leg loosens and the body cracks. The mounting plate spreads the load across a wide surface and prevents this.
What material is the leg mounting plate made from?
It is made of steel, protected with an electrostatic coating. We can manufacture in different sizes, angles, materials and surface treatments to suit your project.
Does the plate hold the leg at a fixed angle?
Yes, the mounting plate fixes the leg at the specified angle, and the lateral forces of sitting do not push it out of that angle. If a different angle is required, it can be produced on a project basis.
