Safety

Keep your furniture secure and your home safe

Certain furniture may become unstable and tip over, leading to possible injury or death. Tip restraint devices may prevent tipping of furniture when properly installed.

These devices are a good choice for keeping your favourite larger pieces in place and avoiding tumbles or accidents. Heavy furniture can become unstable and tip, which can be especially dangerous if you have small children at home. While tip restraints are available with all of our pieces over 30” high, we’re making them available to you should you want to secure any other pieces in your home, like top-heavy furniture or TVs.

You can easily install your tip restraint to a wall stud in five steps:

1. Attach a bracket to the back top rail or back top edge of the furniture using the 5/8” screw provided, through the smaller hole in the brackets.
2. Place the second bracket on the wall over a wall stud and two inches below the mounting bracket secured to the back of your unit. Attach the second bracket to the wall stud using the 2” screw provided, through the smaller hole.
3. Place the furniture into position so both mounting brackets are vertically in line.
4. Lace the end of the restraint strap through the larger hole in each mounting bracket. Bring both ends together and slide the flat end through the locking end and draw it through until all slack is removed.
5. Confirm that the strap is securely laced and locked.
