I want to buy some but don't know what they are called!

Need to raise my son's bed by a few mm so his storage boxes fit now we've had carpet fitted in his room, and these seem as good a way of doing it as any, but can't for the life of me think what to search for on t'web.

Thanks!

sort of thing, you mean? Caster cups.

Lakeland always used to sell them, don't know if they still do......

The only thing is, they seem to be round-shaped and I'm not sure the bed will sit on them as they are smaller than the legs. Ah well, was a good idea but I'll go to to plan A of putting a block of wood under each leg.

Thanks for your help though.

Caster cups - you can get different sizes if you go to a junky DIY old fashioned kind of shop. I had them on DD's old bed and I got them for peanuts.
