Amazing video. How is this literally only video on earth that shows this. Thank you. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Literally the only video I could find to help me and was just what I needed to get my sofa apart, I can't thank you enough.
I had a feeling it would help SOMEONE!
Excellent video! Thank you so much. Your information is very clear and ez to understand. Thank you for the models of each type of locking mechanism per sofa. This is the best video I have seen on this subject, and it has helped me immensely. Thank you.
Very glad to hear that! Thanks for watching
I filed a claim for replacement and could get no response from the manufacturer when they asked for a pic of the label on the bottom of the section! This is what I needed. Thank you
How do you repair the power connectors bolt part thats pulled out of and broke the wood on a piece of the sectional. The whole unit has the bolt and angled slider connectors
Hallelujah! Thank you! Furniture stores need to explain this!
I completely agree!
Thank you so much! Only video I found who could demonstrate for my reclining sectional. Great demo!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much! I was trying to disassemble a 3-piece sectional and was stumped. Thanks to you, & the 3rd type, I did it! Thanks for un-stumping me! 😃
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!! That helped a lot. I won my fight with my husband!!
Glad it helped!
Thanks a lot bro!! Sure enough manufacturer installed my hooks all the same direction so i flipped half of them over. Really appreciate it
Glad it helped!
Agree with Bethany! Thank you so so much for this informational video there wasn't anything out there to simplify locking these clips!
Thanks! Glad it helped
Thanks you just saved the day 🙏 😊 🙌
Very glad it was helpful, thanks for watching
Thank you very much for this helpful video. I saw the connector when they delivered the items, but the store left no instructions. Mine was the last one in your video. I think this will help me a lot.

Great detail, thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Most helpful video I’ve seen . My issue is that the connectors are difficult to align because the cushions are large (non detachable) - any advice for this?
I have definitely struggled with this issue myself! If you have any clamps that fit the cushions, I would try that. Put some towels in between the clamp head and the cushions so you don’t get them dirty. If you don’t have clamps that big, you might see if somebody can help you pull the cushion back while you align them
God bless you
Thanks!
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Awesome thanks you
My pleasure!
Recently got an older reclining sectional. The previous owner did not use (and probably threw out) any connecting hardware. I bought the second style shown, but because the bottoms move with reclining, we can’t use them. What would you recommend?
I was thinking the recliner usually had connections built in to the metal frame. Feel free to send images of it to my email and I’ll try to help. The323concept@yahoo.com
Hi, great video!
We bought 3 seat sofa with 2 recliners on each end. Unfortunately manufacturers didn't align middle seat properly. So, it's sort of more pulled inside.
Is it hard to realign those locking brackets?
One side is like your last example, while other is like your 2nd locking example? Thank you
Sorry for the delayed response. Two out of the three brackets can easily be screwed into a different place. The ones that are part of the metal frame obviously can’t be relocated.
@@the323vlog4 Thank you for your reply. I have managed to relocate the brackets. It was about 15mm each side. I was a little afraid to do it and honestly very annoyed.
Thanks to videos like yours it came out good!
Cheers and all the best 👍
It can definitely be intimidating at first. Glad you decided to tackle it
Yes the head piece.
Not sure what the question is. Maybe it was a continuation of another convo…
My sectional came with the plastic alligator clips…they continually work loose. I bought the interlocking, I’m a little nervous to drill them into my sectional. Which do you consider the best?
The interlocking connectors work great if there’s not too much padding on the side of the recliners, and you actually can get them connected. I would not recommend putting them on there if you ever intend to separate the pieces with a visible edge. They also make metal alligator clips that are much better at staying together.
I have an older Natuzzi leather sectional. Any idea which type of connectors they use?
No idea unfortunately, sorry. If you sent some pictures of the section where they connect I could probably advise better
The braxton java by ashley furniture
?
I have a power recliner, but the first 2 seats would not connect because it's male to male (bolt to bolt). Any advice to fix this?
Feel free to send pics and I’ll try to help. Email is the323concept@yahoo.com
Is there a way to disconnect the last system demonstrated with one person instead of two?
I just can’t get it disconnected by myself
I usually stand behind it and pull backwards at an angle. It’s hard to explain. Sometimes, it helps to have someone at least hold the piece that you’re disconnecting from because it tends to pull with it.
I am a traveling repair tec. I am on my own in customers house . Some times a heavy sofa is sunk in to the carpet vary difficult to unhook. So I get 2 2x4s under the pice I won’t to lift out and just shake them they fall apart…
I want to remove the c shaped section of my sectional. Do I need to turn the couch on it side?
No, you need to identify which type of bracket you have and try to follow the steps in the video.
Any chance you know where to get a replacement for the last type you showed?
Are you looking for the male or female end?
Female
I’ve contacted the store I bought it from. The company that made our couch is called Cheers Manwah. Can’t find it on Amazon, at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
@@christinchristensen3898 I was going to say that will probably be your best bet. Or possibly eBay. I’ve never found them online . Feel free to send pictures of it to our email and maybe we can help with a solution. Our email is the323concept@yahoo.com
Can I rearrange them in order to face the TV better in my new living room? I have a [__ shaped sectional with one end piece being the arm rest with 2 complete seats plus a 1/2 of corner seat that attaches to the other 1/2 (completing the corner) with 3 complete seats that attaches to the chase with arm rest at end. The corner seat and the arm rests on both pieces makes it impossible to rearrange for a different shape. My living room is too small to turn the whole sectional the other direction as that cuts off over half of our space and there's only one viable option for our "TV wall" I just paid this piece off unfortunately, so new furniture isn't an option rn... Any diy suggestions you can suggest? I am willing to add a piece if I can get the chase part with 3 seats to also face towards the TV wall as well. The best way to explain my issue is the only part facing the TV directly is the 2 piece with 1/2 corner.. the rest is like sitting in a theater with the screen to the left instead of ahead infront... Watching TV as a family of 4 isn't a luxury we have now unless 3 of us sacrifice the crick in our necks after an hour or so... (We have 2 dogs that also have their own seats, usually on end of chase & corner spot) Any advice?
Sorry for the delay. Sometimes it depends. I’ve seen where the vendor doesn’t create a finished look where they connect. Sometimes they don’t run solid fabric where they connect, instead they’ll use a decorative black silky material
I wish they would have put the bolt on the recliner side instead of the sectional side. because it is easier to lift the recliner than the sectional.
Yeah, they’re a huge pain
Yea looks easy on wood mot so easy on a couch
Yup pain In The butt. Even harder to film it on a sofa ;)
That helps but what about the head piece
Which head piece? The back rest? I have a separate video on taking those off
What one do you suggest?
I like the metal alligator clips . They seem the most secure
I can never get my power sofa together where it curves. I had it once then disconnected while cleaning.
Yeah, the wedges are the most difficult for me as well. Seems like the cushions are always thickest there. If the cushions are removable that always helps. If not, having someone hold the cushion back might help.
I bought the second ones and it is nearly impossible to connect them while on the sofa because of all of the fluff 😟
Yes! Those can be very difficult. I have tried carefully bending the connectors outward so that they connect more easily. I also relive the cushions if possible
Question: did your couch come with brackets or did you add them? I’m asking because I have a modular couch and the pieces always move.
@@sarahsselflovelifestyle463 mine did not. I got them from Amazon.
@@the323vlog4 I'd like to use the alligator ones, but there's no actual wood wide enough to screw into. 😒
It would not be impossible to add framework in there, if you absolutely had to., However, it is unfortunate that you have to do that.

My alligator male clips look different I’m having trouble disconnecting
Which ones do you have? The black plastic ones?
@@the323vlog4 no they are silver and metal I wish I could post a picture they are rounded at the bottom it doesn’t look like the one in the video
@@briawilliams3326 feel free to send some pictures to our email. The323concept@yahoo.com
Eg po
?
None of this shows me how to take the sofa apart
All of it shows you how to take it apart. You have identify which style you have and follow the directions and it should work.
If you have one that’s different, feel free to send a picture of it and I’ll try to help
I don't know what I have, that's the trouble.i don't know how it goes together or how to remove the section. You show the clips .I have no idea
@the323vlog actually, no it doesn't it shows how the different fasteners work. It doesn't explain how to find out which ones I have, where they are and how you actually move the pieces apart. I figured it though. Have a beautiful day
@@WiWaChanpi 😂glad you figured it out
