Frequently Asked Questions

What are the advantages of using Kenrick Shepherd Metal Ball Castors?

Kenrick Shepherd Metal Ball Castors provide the advantage of 360-degree movement, which is particularly useful for furniture that needs to be moved in multiple directions. Their metal construction ensures they are robust and long-lasting, making them suitable for both domestic and commercial settings. Additionally, their low-profile design allows them to be incorporated into furniture without being overly visible.

How do I choose the right size Kenrick Shepherd Metal Ball Castor?

Choosing the right size depends on the weight of the furniture and the type of surface it will be used on. Larger ball sizes may be more suitable for heavier furniture or softer surfaces like carpet, as they distribute weight more effectively and reduce indentation. Conversely, smaller balls may suffice for lighter furniture or hard surfaces where minimal clearance is required.

Are Kenrick Shepherd Metal Ball Castors suitable for hardwood floors?

While they can be used on hardwood floors, it is advisable to add a protective layer such as a felt pad to prevent potential scratching. This precaution helps maintain the integrity of the flooring while still benefiting from the castors' mobility. Regular maintenance and cleaning of both the floor and the castors can also help minimise wear and tear.
