"When it comes to school halls and community centres, Gopak tables are a no-brainer—lightweight, stackable, and tough as old boots. Invest in folding furniture that can take a daily beating and still look smart for assemblies, bake sales, or bingo night!"

How Gopak Tables & Folding Furniture Work

The genius of Gopak folding tables lies in their clever engineering. Constructed with a lightweight aluminum frame and durable melamine or laminate tops, they feature a patented locking mechanism that deploys in seconds. Simply flip the table over, release the legs with a quick motion, and they lock securely into place—no tools needed! The contour-edged design protects against bumps and scrapes, while the sturdy frame distributes weight evenly. When you're done, they fold flat to just 7-10cm thick, perfect for storing on purpose-built trolleys or against walls, turning multi-functional spaces around in minutes!

Safety Guidelines

  • Proper Lifting Use two people for larger tables—protects backs and tables.
  • Check Mechanisms Ensure legs lock securely—prevents collapse.
  • Adult Supervision Always have staff present during setup—keeps everyone safe.
  • Stable Flooring Use on level surfaces—prevents wobbling.
  • Observe Weight Limits Stay within 100kg distributed load—maintains integrity.
  • Clear Instructions Train all users in proper handling—prevents accidents.

Top Tips for Using Gopak Tables & Folding Furniture

To maximize your Gopak investment, always store tables on appropriate trolleys rather than leaning against walls to prevent warping. When handling, lift rather than drag to preserve the leg mechanisms and floor surfaces. For cleaning, warm soapy water works brilliantly—avoid harsh chemicals that can damage laminate surfaces. Consider color-coding your tables by size or purpose for easier event setup, and inspect the locking mechanisms monthly for smooth operation.
