Buy Knee Kickers by Roberts & Crain from Oodles Trading. A carpet stretcher also known as a knee kicker is a specialized tool used to install wall-to-wall carpet. The tool grips the carpet with a set of tines on the head. A force applied to the tool then tensions the carpet and pulls it closer to the wall. It is then be fixed to a tack strip.
There are two main types of carpet stretchers, power stretchers and knee kickers. Power stretchers apply tension with a lever, and use a pole, typically collapsible, to extend the tensioning force across the room. Power stretchers create more tension than knee kickers, and are used to tension carpeting in large rooms. Knee kickers apply tension using a kick of the knee to the back of the tool. They are used to tension carpet in smaller spaces, such as closets, staircases, and rooms up to three meters square. Failure to properly stretch carpet during installation can lead to the formation of wrinkles over time.
