Product Details


Using these parts creates a framework that is capable of raising the majority of furniture available today including armchairs, settees, riser recliners & recliners and recliner settees with the added feature of granting total access from the front or back for a stand-aid, overchair table or trolley.

The golden rule for furniture raising is to support all legs, feet or castors that are in contact with the floor before the furniture is raised. Because of this a single base frame cannot raise a piece of furniture on its own, two would be required as a minimum. The total number may be larger depending on the furniture you are wanting to raise. You also need to add a fitting suitable for the feet or wheels of your furniture.

There are two main things to consider: the raising element and the fixing element.

There are three types of raiser available here:

 - The Alexander Universal Raiser Mk1 has a simple, horizontal bar in contact with the floor;

 - The new Alexander Universal Raiser Mk2 has a very thin elliptical foot which gives improved stability and a zero trip hazard;

 - The Furniture Disc Raiser is a single leg raiser with a thin, trip-resistant base. Several of these can be used or it is often used with the Mk2 above to support a 5th leg.

After the raising element comes the type of fixing. These are the parts that fit your furniture, feet or castors. There's a wide choice available so please click on each option to review each image along with more information in the specifications below.

Lastly, for wider furniture, you may need an extender bar which increases each Universal Raiser frame up to 38cm in length.
