Determine the Cane Size for Your Chair

The size of cane to seat a chair is determined by the diameter of the holes and the distance of holes from center of one hole to the center of another hole.

Measure the diameter of the holes in your chair. Then measure the distance from the center of one hole to the center of the next hole. Locate the dimensions in the chart below that correspond to the measurements of your chair. Look to the left for the size cane you will need. 

If in doubt as to the size cane you need, send us a sample.
