ABSTRACT:
An improved leveling device for adjusting the height of a substrate with a leveling device located between the floor and the bottom of the piece of furniture. The leveling device is comprised by a threaded stud which resides in a propel nut. The threaded stud is comprised by a first end, an end cap, and a second end, a leveling surface. The leveling device is inserted into a bore in the bottom of the piece of furniture. The propel nut of the leveling device grips the bore and holds the leveling device in the bore. The oversized end cap with respect to the threaded stud and the propel nut in combination with the bore of the substrate is resistably movable and exerts a force against the bore in the substrate to counter forces exerted against the leveler by the floor when dragging the furniture.
