Furniture Fittings & Connectors

Six fittings for sectional sofa, sofa and furniture manufacturers: two parts that join corner-set modules, two plates that fix a leg to the body, a connector plate and an armrest slide. This page sets out what each one does, where the two sectional connectors differ and what to include when you ask for a quote.

What each one does

Joining sectional modules

Both lock two seat modules of a corner sofa together; both are screwed to the module frame, and the modules come apart without undoing any screws. They work differently: in the alligator connector a spring-loaded pawl rides over the teeth and holds at the step where you release it; the bracket type has no moving parts — the raised bodies of two facing plates slot into each other. How many you need depends on the number of joints in the set.

Fixing legs to the body

Fixes a furniture leg to the body and carries the load on the leg into the body across the plate surface instead of through a single screw point; this is what stops the screw seat widening and the leg working loose in chipboard and MDF. The leg bracket also sets the angle at which the leg meets the body; the leg mounting plate is for screw-in legs: the leg screws into the threaded boss at its centre (M8 or M10).

Connector plate

A flat steel plate that sits under the screw when two bodies or profiles are joined. Its square holes stop a square-neck bolt turning, so nobody has to hold the bolt with a spanner from the other side and assembly is done from one side. It spreads load across the plate instead of the narrow area under the screw head.

Armrest slide

A rail of two nested profiles: one part slides along a straight line, and balls between the profiles reduce friction, so the movement is smooth and quiet. It is used to slide sofa arms and bed headboards on and off, and also lets drawers open along a straight line. Made in lengths from 12 to 19 cm. In the trade it is also called an arm clamping slide.

Alligator connector or bracket?

Both lock two modules of a corner set together and are used in the same places: corner sofas, modular sofas, seating that is taken apart and rebuilt. Where they differ is how the lock works.

How it locks A spring-loaded pawl rides over the teeth, holds at the step where it is released and locks in the opposite direction The raised bodies of two facing plates slot into each other; no moving parts
How it comes apart Once the pawl passes the last tooth it disengages; no tools, no screws to undo Lifting the upper module separates it; no screws to undo

  • The alligator connector gains you steps: modules are held at the step where they are released, and when not in use it swings left or right out of the way.
  • The bracket gains you simplicity: no spring and no toothed jaw, the lock is simply two parts slotting together.
  • Which one suits depends on the project; tell us the module layout of the set and we will decide together.

We do not publish figures such as sheet thickness, load capacity or cycle life without verifying them, which is why they are not in the table.
