Here is what the workshop will send, and what it won't.* Also asked as: Can I buy just one of the metal bars?; One bar is damaged and needs replacing. > **The quick answer:** Not as a standalone product: the floor sofa's metal bars and frames aren't sold on their own, not even for DIY or art projects. Owners can get replacement bars, and bars can be added to a covers-only order. They come in standard sizes and silver/chrome only, and a set of 2 is better value than one.

A buyer wrote that the metal frame pieces had gone missing somewhere between the old house and the new one. The cushions made it. The bars didn't. That is exactly what replacement bars are for: an owner who needs the frame back under the sofa. They come in the standard size and the only finish there is, silver/chrome, quoted in messages. And since shipping costs the same for one bar or two, a set of 2 is the better buy. ## Before you message about parts Check what you already have. The 'sofa only' option of the [modular floor sofa](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/modular-floor-sofas/) is complete on its own: 2 seat cushions, 2 L-shaped backrests and the metal bars. The [support bars setup Pattern](https://cushionguide.com/guides/floor-sofa-support-bars-assembly/) shows how they fit together, and the glossary entry for [metal support bars](https://cushionguide.com/glossary/#metal-support-bars) names each part. If it's the covers that are tired rather than the frame, [replacement covers](https://cushionguide.com/guides/floor-sofa-replacement-covers/) are the other road, and bars can ride along with that order. Which piece went missing at your house? > **Tailor's margin:** Replacement metal bars for a floor sofa come in silver/chrome and standard sizes only; a set of 2 costs the same to ship as one bar. > The floor sofa's metal frame isn't sold on its own, but owners can get replacement bars or add them to a covers-only order. > > — Rosa ## Buyer questions **A common question:** Can I buy just one replacement bar for the floor sofa frame? **The workshop's answer:** A single bar is possible, but shipping costs the same for one bar or a set, so the standard set of 2 is the better buy. Bars come in standard sizes only and can't be customized. **A common question:** Can I get the metal bars or floor brackets in black, without the couch? **The workshop's answer:** Bars go to owners and covers-only orders rather than being sold alone, and they come in silver/chrome only, not black. L-shaped backrests bought separately don't include bars. **A common question:** Can I buy the chrome frame by itself for a DIY project? **The workshop's answer:** No. The metal frames aren't sold on their own, even for DIY or art projects, and they aren't made in custom sizes. Existing owners can get replacement bars, and bars can be added to a covers-only order. **A common question:** Which option gets me the whole sofa, bars included? **The workshop's answer:** 'Sofa only' is complete: 2 seat cushions, 2 L-shaped backrests and the metal bars. 'Sofa with ottoman' is the main-photo set, with bars and a foldable ottoman. ## Questions buyers ask next ### Do you sell the bench or platform shown under some cushions? No. The workshop makes cushions and pillows in any size and thickness, but no benches, platforms or frames. The bench in some photos is a 12-16 in (30-40 cm) staging prop, not a product. ### The floor sofa listing disappeared. Can I still order one? Yes. The listing is paused now and then for a new version or after a rush of orders. Existing orders still ship, and the workshop can send a custom link in your color at the same sale price. ### Can longer bars be made for a wider layout? No. The bars come in standard sizes only, with no custom lengths. If you are planning a different layout, ask the workshop which standard pieces fit your space before you order anything. ## Related at the atelier - [Can I buy just the backrests and bars and use my own mattress?](https://cushionguide.com/answers/floor-sofa-backrests-own-mattress-diy/): Yes: floor sofa backrests and metal bars are sold separately, so you can build on your own mattress or base. - [The teddy sofa listing disappeared.
