    Office Chair Parts

    Office chairs can last a very long time, not forever, and not all survive an office move. A common part that breaks is the wheel or castor that supports the whole chair. When replacing all five castors you can also upgrade them with Roller Blade Style wheels, they are taller and do not work well in partial sets. Working From Home may have your chair on a hard (not carpet) surface and there are hard surface castors that keep the chairs from slipping around. Above the base that holds the castors can be a pneumatic “gas lift”. When working it gives the chair some cushion and adjusts the height by pulling a lever. Sometimes the roller bearings on the bottom of the gas lift get knocked off or just break and a new Bearing Kit will be needed. The old-style threaded type adjusts the height by turning the seat and screwing it up or down. The other most common part that takes a beating and will need to be replaced eventually is the ARM PAD. These can be a very easy 4 screw fix or more complicated. There may be a part called an “underlay” that helps hold the soft arm pad top in place, remove that, and then you can get the arm pad screws. If you have a Herman Miller Aeron chair there is a Re-Fresh kit available. It can get that chair back to useful life supporting your body and work.

    Herman Miller has a very long history in the ergonomic chair industry and it can be said they are The Best. Their chairs are built to last, to support your body for decades and some parts may need to be replaced. Ergon, Equa, and Aeron parts are easy to get and may be easy to replace. The Aeron introduced mesh seat and back technology and in the 1990’s we thought they would last forever. Now you can replace the Aeron mesh seat.

    The next most popular brand is Steelcase and they make many styles of chairs and it can be said they are The Best overall office furniture manufacturer. Everything they make is very high quality, can last for decades, but may need some new Steelcase parts.

    Refurbished Chairs

    Why throw the old in the landfill when people can repair and refurbish products to “Like New” condition? Many used office chairs get disposed of every year and Crandall Office Furniture has been collecting, repairing, and replacing old parts with new parts since 2002. Great office chairs have already been created and improved on. Why buy a new chair, when you can buy a refurbished one “Like New” with a warranty.

    We are talking about Herman Miller and Steelcase Authorized Factory Returns. Steelcase has partnered with Crandall Office Furniture to handle the chairs returned before 14 day trial period. They are Grade A, as they are nothing wrong when inspected from a 2-3 distance. Grade B allows for some scratches or dings and no structural damage. When shopping for grade A and grade B chairs allow for changing inventory quantities. Upon receiving all chairs, grade C chairs are sent to the refurbishing process when any repairs or new parts are needed.

    Refurnished Chairs

    The first thing is getting old chairs. Crandall Office Furniture has long-standing agreements with environmental caring corporations to give their chairs a “landfill-free end of life” solution. The chairs are sent to the Michigan facility, for counting and sorting into grades A, B, or C. Upon a customer placing an order, the right chairs are pulled from inventory and get ready for refurbishing. The whole chair is disassembled down to the core and inspected for “Repair or Replace” parts. Since the company has been doing work for over 20 years, they have very strong relationships with suppliers and has the “know-how” to get “the doing” done right. All foam is steam cleaned to reactivate and sterilize the seats and backs. This allows for the removal of all upholstery and adhesives. All new upholstery is used and you can choose the color and pattern. Also, you have the option of adding your brand logo to it. Every moving part is tested, serviced, and repaired. Common parts that get replaced are arm pads, castors, and gas lift cylinders. Unusable items get recycled when appropriate or disposed of properly. The order is prepared for semi-trailer loads by shipping chairs fully assembled or boxed delivery with partially assembled chairs for small orders. Because Crandall Office Furniture uses this time-tested system all chairs come with a 12-year warranty. This keeps old chairs out of the landfill and prolongs their useful life and promotes America’s economy with U.S. jobs. Other furniture and components can be replaced over time. Planning ahead during the purchasing process can help extend the useful life of your office furniture.
