FAQ
What is a Space-Plug Adjustable Spacer Fixing?
Space-Plug is an adjustable spacer fixing designed to bridge a gap between suitable floor-standing furniture or cabinetry and a wall. It creates a rigid bridge across the gap while allowing a fixing screw to pass through to an appropriate fixing point in the wall.
What can Space-Plug be used for?
Space-Plug can be used in suitable applications where floor-standing furniture or cabinetry needs securing back to a wall but a gap prevents a direct fixing. Applications can include bookcases, dressers and chests, bathroom storage cabinets, storage cabinets, floor-standing cabinetry and suitable racking.
The furniture or cabinetry must have a suitable structural fixing point, and the wall fixing must be appropriate for the wall construction.
Can Space-Plug be used to anchor furniture to a wall?
Yes, where the furniture construction and installation conditions are suitable. Space-Plug can bridge the gap created by features such as baseboards or the design of the furniture, allowing a suitable structural part of the furniture to be secured back to the wall.
For more information, see our Furniture Wall Anchor Guide.
Can Space-Plug be used with baseboards or uneven walls?
Yes, in suitable applications. Baseboards, trim and uneven wall conditions can leave a gap between floor-standing furniture or cabinetry and the wall. An appropriately sized Space-Plug can bridge that gap to create a controlled fixing point.
Does Space-Plug replace the wall anchor or wall plug?
No. Space-Plug bridges the gap between the item being secured and the wall. The screw, wall anchor or other fixing used must still be suitable for the wall construction and application.
Can DIYers use Space-Plug or is it just for professionals?
Both. Space-Plug is designed for professional and DIY applications. No specialist Space-Plug tools are required, but the furniture or cabinetry must have a suitable structural fixing point and the wall fixing must be appropriate for the wall construction.
