APCO Worldwide Revolutionizes Furniture Stability with Innovative Mounting Plates

TUMWATER, WA – November 8, 2023 – APCO Worldwide LLC, a leading provider of specialized hardware solutions, is making waves in the furniture manufacturing and repair industry with its newly enhanced line of furniture leg mounting plates. Based in Tumwater, Washington, APCO Worldwide has spent decades quietly becoming a critical supplier to manufacturers across the globe, but is now putting a spotlight on a product line designed to solve a common, frustrating problem: wobbly furniture. “We’ve been making these plates for years, honestly, supplying big furniture companies you’d definitely recognize,” says a representative from APCO Worldwide. “But we realized a lot of people don’t even know these exist, or that there’s a really solid, easy fix for those shaky tables and chairs. So we’re stepping up and letting folks know there's a better way than glue, shims, and hoping for the best.” The Problem with Wobbly Furniture: More Than Just Annoying Let’s face it, a wobbly table is more than just a nuisance. It's annoying during dinner, can spill drinks, and frankly, just looks unprofessional. But beyond the inconvenience, it's a sign of structural weakness. Over time, repeated stress on loose joints can lead to more significant damage, requiring costly repairs or even replacement. Traditional fixes like wood glue are often temporary and require disassembly. Shims can be tricky to install correctly and might not even work on uneven floors. APCO’s Solution: A Simple, Durable, and Effective Fix APCO Worldwide’s furniture leg mounting plates offer a permanent, robust solution. These aren’t flimsy, throwaway pieces. They’re precision-engineered from heavy-duty steel, built to withstand years of use and abuse. But what are they, exactly? Essentially, these plates act as a strong intermediary between the furniture leg and the frame. Instead of relying on potentially weakened wood joints, the plate is securely attached to both the leg and the frame using standard wood screws. This creates a much wider and more stable connection. “Think of it like a brace for your furniture,” explains the APCO representative. “It doesn’t just mask the wobble, it fixes the underlying problem. It redistributes the weight and eliminates the movement.” Key Features and Benefits: Heavy-Duty Steel Construction: Provides exceptional strength and durability. These plates won't bend or break under stress. Universal Compatibility: APCO offers a wide range of plate sizes and configurations to suit various leg shapes and furniture types, from dining tables and chairs to sofas and desks. They’ve got plates for square legs, round legs, even oddly shaped legs. Easy Installation: No special tools or expertise are required. Simply position the plate, pre-drill pilot holes (recommended for hardwood), and secure with wood screws. Most repairs can be completed in under 15 minutes. Permanent Fix: Unlike temporary solutions, APCO’s mounting plates provide a long-lasting, reliable repair. Versatile Application: Not just for repairing existing furniture. These plates can also be used during the manufacturing process to build even more stable and durable pieces. Protects Floors: By providing a solid connection, the plates help distribute weight more evenly, reducing the risk of scratches or dents on your floors. Beyond Repair: A Manufacturing Advantage APCO Worldwide isn't just targeting homeowners and DIY enthusiasts. Furniture manufacturers are increasingly incorporating these mounting plates into their production lines. “We’re seeing a growing demand from manufacturers who are focused on building quality furniture that lasts,” says the APCO representative. “They understand that a little extra investment upfront in a robust connection can significantly reduce warranty claims and improve customer satisfaction.” By using APCO’s mounting plates, manufacturers can: Increase Furniture Stability: Deliver a more solid and reliable product. Reduce Manufacturing Defects: Minimize issues related to wobbly legs or loose joints. Improve Customer Satisfaction: Build a reputation for quality and durability.
