Our freestanding office partitions slide every time someone bumps them. The floor is polished concrete. What actually works to keep them in place?
Standard rubber feet slip on smooth surfaces. Try these solutions:
| Solution | Cost | Effectiveness |
|---|---|---|
| Non-slip rubber pads (under each foot) | $10-20 | Good – basic grip |
| Silicone coasters (larger surface area) | $15-30 | Better – spreads weight |
| Double-sided carpet tape (on feet) | $5-10 | Best – but leaves residue |
| Adhesive felt + rubber dots | $8-15 | Good – for light partitions |
| Sandbags or weighted base plates | $30-50 | Excellent – heavy, but visible |
Quick fix: Wet the floor slightly under each foot – moisture creates suction on polished concrete. Lasts a few hours.
Permanent solution: Replace standard feet with suction cup feet designed for hard floors. They lock onto polished concrete and release with a lever.
