ABSTRACT:
An integrally molded glide cover has a top and a base that interlock together to surround and encapsulate the lower portion of an existing furniture glide. A rim protrudes downwardly from the bottom of the base and surrounds a recessed bottom surface for receiving an insert that is adapted for sliding on floors without damaging the floor surface. A hinge allows the base to close over the bottom of the glide and into direct alignment with locking prongs on the top for interlocked attachment of the base to the top using one hand and no tools. When interlocked, the top and base provide a tamper-proof permanent attachment that presents a low profile appearance closely resembling the exterior configuration of the encapsulated lower glide portion.
