My recliner has 9"x14" bolt pattern, & I will make a plywood adapter for this 8"x8" base. Anyone know if the plywd should be 3/4" or 5/8" thick?

I used to 2 piece's of square tubing for each chair, 1" x 14". I thought I needed to make a mounting plate but this idea was much more simple. This was for my rocker recliner's that is now a swivel rocker recliner's. They both work great.

I would think either would be fine, I used a scrap of 3/4 inch particle board for a base and it worked great. Chair now rotates very easily and very happy with the results.

About 3/8" would be the minimum. Or consider using a bolt and nuts, with washers.

Measure the square base where the recliner sits on....some come with pre-holes in them for a aftermarket swivel....

The board I got was 12'' wide alright, but the length was only 7 1/2' or 7 3/4' -- slightly less than 8'. The two bolts for the board were 6'' each. I had to buy a similar 7'' ones from Home Depot (about $6 each). 6 1/2'' bolts would have worked fine.

Not sure what size you base is across you lazyboy. You might want to measure your recliner across the bottom and get one that will not extend pass it, and maybe an inch shorter. I had to do some drilling in my framework to secure it good.

Original was probably 3/16th inch. I couldn't find that size so I read where 1/4 inch had been used by some that repaired there gravity chairs. It was a little tight but I believe it is much stronger. Time will tell.

I have never seen a 5/8 to 1/2 bearing. If you made a bearing this size the wall thickness would only be 1/16" thick, which would include the bearings. Please let me know what you are trying to accomplish so I may offer an alternative. Thanks, Thom

Hi. Measurements will be the death of us. We have two of these for our two Faulkner Zero Gravity Recliners and the covers fit beautifully. We store the recliners on the bed in the camper, thus the covers. Have had them for many years. Hope I helped "a little"

You probably need the longer version. This particular item has closer to a 3 inch exposed wire. Thanks, Angela with Recliner-Handles.

You want to go bigger then the 3/8th so there is room to get the bolt in straight, I use a 9/16th so that I have plenty of room to move it the bolt around and make sure that it seats good in the t-nut, you can go smaller if you drill really straight, make sure you test your t-nuts and get them straight before you attach your panels

Responding to your enquiry and to the other one regarding the mounting adapter. You said that the original opening was rectangular and the adapter was round. This isn't necessarily a problem if your rectangle isn't bigger that the adapter, so that the adapter would cover it. If it doesn't cover the rectangular opening (my word you must have a big cat to demand that big an opening!) you could always come up with your own adaptor. All you need to do is to have a piece of Plexiglas cut to cover your rectangular opening and then cut an opening in the Plexiglas to take the SureFlap. If you use something like 1/8" thick it should be strong enough to take the weight of the Flap. Leave enough room between edges and when you cut the openings in the Plexiglas, make sure that where you have two straight edges coming together, that they are joined in a drilled round hole. This stops a crack propagating at the join. You might need to use slightly longer screws to account for the additional thickness, but it will work

It is 18inches wide between the legs. Depending on the height of your recliner it might be too low as well. When floor mounted its 20.5 inches high. hope this helps

Thanks for the questions. You may use 1/2" - 3/4 plywood if you like it will be fine, the only issue may be that the mattress may sit too low, personal preferance? Please feel free to call toll free at 1 866 753 8001 or go to the website at thegoodtimber.com

I returned the recliner base because it was too low for the chair top. So I am unable to provide an assessment. Shelomo Wugalter

Actually a very good question. No, the Amazon Prime vendor does not tell you, but a different listing (not prime) had it laid out in more detail. This gave me an opportunity to get some lumber education. You will want to use Cedar. The legs are 4"x4"x8'. The beam is either a 4"x6"x10', or 2-2"x6"x10' pieces bolted together (I used the bolts that are included and a tube of commercial grade liquid nail). The things you'll have to settle on are how long you really want the beam. It could be a little longer or shorter. My lumber guy only had 12' so I cut some off. If you use 2"x6" material, you will want to add a piece to fill the bracket from side to side. The other thing you need to decide before you buy lumber is "rough" or "smooth." Rough cedar is larger than smooth cedar. Best thing you can do is go to a good lumber yard and give them the exact inside dimensions of your brackets, or even wait and take one in with you, and have them explain the dimensional difference between rough and smooth so you get the right thing the first try. In the end, I bought the smooth, filled the bracket perfectly with short cut pieces, and shimmed the leg brackets so they would be tight, also. Good luck.

Yes it will work but you need to drill long bolts 3 1/2". Make sure that is rest's against the baseboard for a more secure fit. We went from a Queen to a King and everything was Amish design. 5" square Oak legs so very Heavy but this did the trick for us. Did the foot board as well.
