Bolts for Jack Knife Sofa Brace
Posted: February 6th, 2026, 4:46 pm
Hello everyone,
I’m running into an issue removing the bolts that secure the brace for my jackknife sofa. When I attempt to back out two of the floor bolts, they loosen initially but then reach a point where they simply spin without coming out.
I’ve tried applying slight upward pressure while turning the bolts, which helped a bit but not enough to remove them completely. At this point, I’m wondering if these bolts can be safely cut, or if there’s a better approach I should try first.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
