We all know no one likes a wobbly table, but how can you prevent it from becoming that? The longevity of commercial furniture requires proper maintenance, including table legs.

To ensure maximum life and use for your restaurant table, here are some practical ways you can care for your bar and table base:

Perform Joint Inspection

In high-occupancy spaces, table joints and connections may come loose. This puts extra stress on the base, causing instability and damage to the sides of the table. To avoid this, get in the habit of turning the table over every three months or so to make sure the binding is still strong.

Material Based Cleaning

Our table bases are usually steel or cast iron. Some tables have solid wood legs. To maintain any restaurant table base, we recommend daily cleaning. However, cleaning these different materials varies widely.

For our metal base, clean it with warm soapy water and a soft clean cloth. For wooden bases and legs, never soak or water directly on the surface. Instead, clean with a damp towel and make sure to dry completely. Steer clear of any harsh chemicals, such as bleach or citrus chemicals, that could damage the finish.

Don't Ignore the Chips

Sand and repaint any debris on the base immediately. Chips can stack on top of each other and can quickly compromise the integrity and appearance of the base.

Pull Outdoor Tables Inside

This may seem obvious, but prolonged exposure to weather-related elements can cause rapid damage to the table base. To avoid rust and oxidation, be sure to store your coffee table indoors during the harsh winter months.

Start with Quality Products

Ultimately, the stability of your base starts with purchasing a quality-constructed table. Commercial restaurant tables are built to last, so investing in a vetted, durable product can make a big difference to your bottom line (and your mind) in the long run. If you're constantly fixing joints or having to buy new tables to replace broken ones, the low price may not be a bargain at all.

When you follow these simple maintenance tips, we're sure your base will thank you, providing your customers with a long-lasting and stable place. If you are looking for high-quality restaurant tables and chairs, welcome to contact us.
