For 30 years we have professionally and creatively addressed the commercial seating needs of clients across the United States. We feature lines of seating specifically selected for their durability, style, and minimal maintenance needs.

What goes into a durable chair?

When it comes to theater seating or auditorium seats, they are only as durable as the standards that they rest upon. Cast iron standards have traditionally been the sturdiest. Today, heavy gauge steel standards that are robotically welded can compete very well with cast iron. When it comes to the seat bottoms and seat backs, many grades of plastics are used in commercial seating. We use the highest grade plastic with the highest UV inhibitors that will not crack or fade over time.

How much can seats be customized to fit specific needs?

Select from many different seat colors. Determine the width of seat that is needed. Some types of seats offer the option of front or back cup holders. If upholstered chairs are preferred, select from plush velvets to modern super stain resistant fabrics. The ability to customize new theater seating can be critical in properly matching it with the architectural style of the venue.

How do long-term maintenance costs factor in?

Powder coated metal surfaces will be 'tough as nails' and require little maintenance. Plastics that contain UV inhibitors will remain fade-free outdoors for lengthy periods. Seat lifts that ride on maintenance-free performance bearings will be worth the investment. If seats are upholstered, stain resistant and spill resistant fabrics will require less frequent replacement.

Some types of seats are more impervious to attempts to write on them than others. Graffiti resistant surfaces can reduce maintenance costs in certain applications.
