Square End Extension
This square table is made larger by adding leaves to the ends.
Quick Points
- Our end extension leaves are simple to install. We include a drawer slide that you pull out and then you place the leaves on top of the slide, pushing the slide back in to tighten up the leaf to the table.
- One detail to note is that the grain in the end extensions runs across the width of the table, while the grain of the table itself runs the length of the table.
What sorts of spaces Squares are good for?
A Square table is great for a space that is as long as it is wide.
How the shape affects table use?
A Square is an interesting shape of table as it helps everyone around the table to see each other. This makes for great conversation.
How End Extension works?
A Nautley edge is a great choice for rectangular dining tables and for coffee tables. Because the desired effect is to create a lighter looking piece, it is usually applied to tops made with 6/4 thick planks rather than 8/4.
How they compare to rounds?
Round and Square Extension Tables both work well in square shaped spaces in their everyday form. With extensions added, the square table becomes a rectangle and the round becomes an oval. With a square you can choose either end extension or center extensions while with a round, the extension have to be added to the middle.
How they compare to rectangles?
A Square End Extension Table is similar to a rectangle extension table in that they both add leaves to the ends and create a rectangle or at least a larger one when the leaves are in place. A Square End Extension Table, though, is a great solution for a smaller space as the everyday size is smaller, typically perfect for 2-4 people.
They can be center extension tables?
Alternatively, a Square Extension Table can have the leaves added to the middle of the table. This would be called a Square Center Extension Table.
