Replace Pirelli Style Straps Using 50mm Elastic Seat Webbing
The following instructions assume you have already identified and purchased a suitable replacement webbing straps and fastening clips from Sofa Rehab and have already removed any fabric, padding, cushions or frames in preparation to start the D.I.Y repair.
To replace webbing straps on upholstered furniture it is the same process whether you are changing the webbing straps on a seat, backrest or armrest of a chair, recliner or larger item.
We recommend taking a photograph of the original layout of the webbing straps to refer back to if required during the repair.
- Make a mark with a pencil on the timber frame at the centre of each webbing strap end as an indicator to locate the correct position for the replacement webbing strap (Tip: Use pencil so you can rub out the mark once finished).
- Measure the distance between the grooves on the timber frame where the original webbing straps are attached and note this down.
- Cut the replacement webbing straps to the desired length and attach one webbing clip to either end.
- Carefully remove the original webbing straps from the frame and dispose of the waste.
- Install the webbing straps by positioning the the first clip in the centre of the pre marked indicator and pushing the clip into the groove then carefully stretching the strap to the opposite frame pushing the second clip and strap into the groove at the centre of the pre-marked indicator.
- Repeat the process until all of the webbing straps are installed.
- Reattach any padding, fabric or cushions removed at the beginning.
Note – If you are installing the webbing straps for the first time on a new frame then as a guide we’d recommend spacing the webbing straps evenly apart at the same width as the webbing strap. i.e If installing 50mm wide webbing straps space the straps 50mm apart.
