Do mobile pedestal casters have a locking mechanism?

Some mobile pedestal casters include a brake mechanism — a lever or tab on the side of the caster wheel that locks the caster in place and prevents rolling. Locking casters are useful when the pedestal is being used as a seated surface (cushion top) and needs to stay stationary, or when the pedestal is placed in a location where it might roll (sloped floor, near a door). Most standard commercial pedestals ship with non-locking swivel casters, and locking casters are an upgrade option on select models. Locking rear casters only (allowing the front to swivel freely for steering) is a common configuration. OfficeFurniture2go.com can specify locking casters on pedestal orders — call 1-800-460-0858.
