How It Folds Architecture
FoldHouse is built to be the table you actually want in your living room on game night, and one you can put away again in minutes. Here is how it goes up, how it comes down, and what to expect along the way.
Built to hold its shape
A folding table is only as good as its frame. FoldHouse uses a reinforced tubular steel frame with locking cross-braces, so the legs stay put when someone leans on the rail to push an all-in. The rail itself is padded, wrapped in wipe-clean vinyl, and fitted with deep steel cup holders so drinks stay off the playing surface.
Setting up
- Choose your spot. Pick a flat, clear patch of floor with room for chairs all the way around.
- Unfold the table. Stand it on its edge, open the legs, and lower the table to the floor.
- Lock the braces. Check that every leg is fully open and the cross-braces are locked before you put any weight on it.
- Drop in your mat. Unroll the Texas Hold’em or Blackjack mat and lay it flat inside the rail.
- Deal. Set out your chips and cards and you are ready to play.
Putting it away
- Clear the table and lift off your mat.
- Roll the mat loosely (never fold it) and slide it into its storage tube.
- Release the cross-braces and fold the legs flat.
- Stand the folded table in a closet or against a wall, or slide it under a bed.
Handy tips
- Open and close the table on a clear floor, away from furniture and doorways.
- Keep fingers clear of the hinges and brace joints while folding.
- Lift with your legs and keep the folded table close to your body. If you are going up or down stairs, ask a friend to help.
- Check the locks every time you set up. It takes a few seconds and keeps the table steady all night.
