Best Types of Church Chairs and Seating
Seating is one of the most important parts of a church. Think about it. Insufficient seating can make church services tough for your congregation. Church seating is available in a variety of formats, including metal and wood. There are a few questions you will want to ask yourself before making your purchase.
What style is your building? Although this isn’t a rule set in stone, it is a good idea to try and match your church seating up as closely as possible with the building it will be in. This means an older or more traditional church may require more ornate wood furniture where a newer more contemporary church may be fine with a metal frame or simple wood chair.
Is space an issue? If space is an issue, or you use a room for multiple activities, you may want to consider using stackable seating. Stackable seating frees up a lot of space. If you have a room dedicated for church services only, you may want to consider using a heavier or non-stacking chair.
Is color coordination necessary? Much of our furniture is available in a variety of wood stains and fabric colors. Try to match the wood stain and fabric to match existing church furniture and décor. If you have any questions about matching the furniture, give us a call at 1-800-257-2968.
Who will be using the chairs? Will your furniture be primarily used by adults or children? This is an important question to ask. Our wood furniture is very durable, and can withstand the wear children can create, but children are messy.
If children will be using the furniture, you may want to consider a chair with an open back for quicker cleanup. If children will be exclusively using the seating, you may even want to consider getting a metal or wood chair without padding. This will help cut down on stains.
