Custom Metal Table Legs

Metal table legs offer a unique configuration option, as opposed to single piece metal table bases. Individual legs can be used for a number of different applications and can be repositioned as necessary to accommodate various seating configurations. Individual legs are able to be flat packed which helps drastically reduce shipping costs. As such, metal table legs offer a cost saving option as compared to a similar design single piece metal table base. However it is important to note that individual legs require a secure connection to the tabletop to maintain stability. While the legs do offer support to the tabletop throughout the length of the top mounting plate, the legs do not offer an longitudinal support to the tabletop. Therefore, applications using glass tops or thin and fragile tops should strongly using a single piece Metal Table Base.

Why ECon Welding?

We initially entered into the market of metal table legs and bases offering the "Best price guarantee" and focused heavily on volume over quality. This is the approach a majority of our competition still aims for; However early on we decided to transition to quality over quantity, making high quality pieces that we could be proud of. We know we're not the cheapest option, but we also strongly believe that you get what you pay for. We are not marking up our product prices simply for the brand name. Our staff is highly skilled, and takes great pride in the products they make. All of the metalworking here is done from start to finish by the same fabricator, as opposed to being passed off from person to person down an assembly line. This method instills a sense of pride in our staff, so that when a product is completed, they can look at it and be proud of the work they have done. This allows for our fabricators to pay extra attention to the minor details and provide a product of impeccable quality.

We have well over 100 years of combined experience building metal table legs and bases and as such we know what's important when it comes to the various designs and builds. We don't offer products with a limited weight capacity. As long as they are sized appropriately, all of our products can withstand the weight of the heaviest of tabletops. Our products are fully welded and therefore have no nuts and bolts that will loosen over time causing the table to sway and wobble. You are so confident in our product offerings, we offer a Lifetime Satisfaction Guarantee on all of our products. You can rest assured that when you buy a set of metal table legs from ECon Welding, you are buying a generational, heirloom quality piece of furniture that will be a conversational piece for decades to come.

Quick Sizing Guide for Metal Table Legs

Width

A quick, general rule of thumb is to take the overall width of your tabletop, and subtract 24" to get the width of your table legs. Make sure the legs do not go below these minimum widths:

Dining height - 20" width minimum
Counter height - 24" width minimum
Bar height - 28" width minimum

For any metal table leg designs that taper in at the floor, add 6-8" to the above minimums for the minimum leg width since the width is measured at the widest point of the legs, at the top, and they taper in 6" to 8" at the floor.

Height

Dining height is finished at 30", so subtract the thickness of your tabletop from 30" to get the height of the table legs. Round down to the nearest inch to account for the included leveling feet.
For counter height, subtract the thickness of the tabletop from 36".
For bar height, subtract the thickness of the top from 42".

Coffee tables, side tables, and bench legs

You typically want the width of the legs for smaller sized builds to be just a couple inches smaller than the top.
Benches typically have a finished height that is 12" less than the table height. So subtract the thickness of the top from this measurement to get the height of the legs.
Coffee tables typically have a finished height equal to, or a couple inches below the surrounding seating height. Usually around 18" to 20" tall.
Side tables typically have a finished height equal to, or slightly below the surrounding arm rest height of nearby seating.

Tubing Size

1" tube - Reserved for small, lightweight tables, such as side tables or coffee tables
1.5" or 1x2 rectangular tube - Suitable for smaller tables, dining tables with a minimalistic style, or bench legs
2" or 1x3 rectangular tube - Most common size material, suitable for most applications
3" or 2x3 rectangular tube - Suitable for heavier or larger tabletops, or where a more prominent look is desired for the metal table legs
4" or 2x4 rectangular tube - Gives a massive look to the table legs, suitable for the heaviest and largest of tabletops.
