FAQ

How many people can the Harper Trestle Table seat?

Most families seat 4 to 6 guests comfortably on the base sizes, with room for additional guests when extensions are added.

Does the table include leaf self storage?

Yes. The Harper includes standard self storage for leaves that meet the storage guidelines. Our team can confirm which combinations will store internally for the size you choose.

What makes wooden geared equalizer slides beneficial?

These slides allow the table to open smoothly and evenly, so one person can extend the table without strain. It preserves the alignment and stability of the top over time.

Which wood type is best for a smooth, modern look?

Hard Maple and Brown Maple offer a cleaner, more uniform grain that pairs well with contemporary spaces. If you prefer visible grain character, Quarter Sawn White Oak or Rustic Cherry are excellent choices.

Handcrafted dining tables typically take 8 to 12 weeks, depending on finish selection and seasonality. Quality takes time, and every table is made to order.

Seating Tips

Trestle Tables

Seating around the H-frame base can offer a little bit of a challenge.

A 60” table with a trestle base can only fit one person between the base supports, so it typically seats 4 people, while other styles can seat up to 6. Larger sizes like 66” and 72” can fit two people between the supports, allowing for about 6 seats, while other styles may seat up to 8.

Some of our tables can also expand to accommodate up to 18–20 people with the addition of drop-down support legs.

We also recommend adding a leaf at all times to increase the clearance at the ends of the table, for adequate knee clearance.

Drop Down Legs

For tables with five or more extensions, our builders add drop down legs to allow stability at extended lengths. The legs use hinges at the top and they can fold under the top and rest on the mounting plates when not in use. They only need to be used when the table is extended with more than 4 leaves.

Geared table slides

Geared table slides are used on tables with 1 - 4 leaves (unless otherwise noted). These slides allow for ease of use when opening and closing. They cannot be used on tables with 5 or more extensions.

Wooden Table slides

For Tables with five or more extensions, we use wooden tables. These are lighter-weight than the geared extensions and allow for the telescoping function needed to expand to hold up to 12 extensions.
