Mobile Pedestals — Expert Answer

Do mobile pedestals have brakes on the casters?

Many commercial mobile pedestals include at least one or two casters with locking brakes — a foot-activated mechanism that locks the wheel to prevent rolling. Some models have a brake on every caster; others only on the rear two. Braked casters are important if you use the pedestal as a secondary work surface, a seat (with cushion top), or if it's stored in a position where it could roll into walkways. If you don't need a brake, unlocked casters roll more easily and are slightly cheaper. For ADA compliance in some configurations, a lockable pedestal that doesn't move during transfer is required.
