Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Garden Bistro in Norwich was struggling with wobbly outdoor tables on their charming but uneven flagstone patio, leading to the odd spilled drink. They upgraded all 15 of their patio tables with the Bolero GH449 rectangular cast iron table base.

"Our patio is a huge draw, but the wobbly tables were a constant headache. Since we switched to these Bolero bases, the problem has completely vanished. The adjustable feet were simple to use, and  the tables are now rock solid. Customers have even commented on how much more comfortable it feels."

Robert Green – Manager, The Garden Bistro

The switch completely eliminated drink spillage complaints and  improved the overall guest experience, contributing to a 15% increase in positive online reviews mentioning the comfortable atmosphere.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure you have a clear, flat area for assembly. The box is heavy, so we recommend two people lift it.
  • All fittings required to assemble the base itself are included. Follow the simple instruction sheet.
  • Before attaching your tabletop, place the assembled base where it will be used and  adjust the glider feet until it sits flat without rocking.
  • Tabletop screws are not included, as the required length depends on your specific tabletop's thickness.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down regularly with a damp cloth and  a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive or corrosive cleaners.
  • For outdoor use, consider covering during prolonged wet weather to maximise its lifespan and  finish.
  • Periodically check that the main column bolt is tight, especially in high-use commercial settings.
  • Check the adjustable gliders now and then to ensure they haven't loosened or become clogged with dirt.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Restaurant Table Base

Not sure which table base is the perfect fit for your venue? Let's break down the key things to consider to ensure you make the right choice.

Weight Equals Stability

When it comes to bases, heavy is good! A weighty cast iron base provides a low centre of gravity, making your tables far less likely to tip or wobble, which is crucial for customer safety and  comfort.

Base Spread vs. Top Size

Make sure the base's footprint is large enough for your chosen tabletop. A base that's too small for a large top is a recipe for instability. This base is ideal for tops up to 1100x700mm.

Material Matters

Cast iron is the industry standard for a reason: it's incredibly durable, heavy, and  long-lasting. It’s a sound investment for any busy commercial setting, handling daily wear and  tear with ease.

Indoor or Outdoor?

If you have a terrace or garden, choosing a base rated for both indoor and  outdoor use, like this one, offers great flexibility and  value. It means you can maintain a consistent look across your whole establishment.

Consider Your Floors

Got slightly uneven floors? Don't worry. Look for bases with adjustable feet or 'gliders'. They are a lifesaver for levelling tables on patios, old wooden floors, or anywhere that isn't perfectly flat.

Say Goodbye to Wobbly Tables: The Magic of Adjustable Gliders

Ever had a table that rocks back and  forth on a slightly uneven floor? It’s a common problem, especially in older buildings with character. That’s where 'adjustable gliders' come in. Think of them as tiny, adjustable feet built into the bottom of the table base. They are small threaded pads that you can twist to extend or retract by a few millimetres.

By simply turning one or two of the gliders, you can raise a corner of the base just enough to make solid contact with the floor, eliminating the wobble instantly. It’s a simple but brilliant bit of engineering that means you get a perfectly stable table on paving slabs, old wooden floors, or any surface that isn’t perfectly flat. No more folded napkins shoved under the base!

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants & Bistros: Provides a reliable, heavy-duty dining table support for two-to-four-person tables in high-traffic areas.
