How do you keep a sectional couch from sliding around on laminate flooring?

Question

I've tried sticking rubber grips on the bottom of the legs but the legs are hollow so the grips don't last long. Once the middle sections shifts the rest of the couch seems to follow.

Answer 1

You can buy rubber discs/squares from Home Depot that go under the legs. They are designed specifically for this purpose.

Answer 2

There is this stuff that you can by at the dollar store, it is used as shelf liner, It comes in a roll about 5-6 feet long and it looks like a wafer (with little holes in it) it is kind of rubbery. I use it for everything except shelf liner. It holds my couch cushions in place and my area rugs in place.

Give it a try, if it doesn't work all you have waisted is a dollar.

Answer 3

Glue some felt to a piece of very hard cardboard, and stick that to the bottom of the legs. Worked for me.

Answer 4

I use that rubbery shelf covering under a lot of things to keep them from sliding. One
roll would last a long time. Might be worth a try.

Answer 5

If they are accessible, you can tie the legs together, or tape them together, or rubberband them together.

Another idea would be to put velcro on the material where the sections come together, and stick them to each other.

Answer 6

HAVE YOU TRIED PUTTING SOMETHING ON THE ENDS OF THE LEGS SO THAT THEY AREN'T HOLLOW? MAYBE ADDING ANOTHER PIECE OF WOOD AND THEN PUTTING THE RUBBER GRIPPING ON IT?

Answer 7

Superglue

Answer 8

you can buy rubber "pads" at your local hardware store (home depot, lowes) and they rest under the sofa so you don't get the sliding around.

Answer 9

Maybe try some thick cork board.

Answer 10

small pieces of rubber
