THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE PURCHASING CHURCH FURNITURE
How much space is available?
Churches around the world vary in size and purpose.
Although we make shopping online for church furniture
easier, photographs can sometimes portray something as
bigger or smaller than it is. Be sure and look at the
dimensions posted on the product. The last thing you want
to do is get a large piece of furniture that looks
proportionally huge in a small room.
Measure the room you are furnishing. Many of our products
are designed to help conserve space, but you will still
want to make sure they fit. Consider how wide door entries
are. Be sure furniture such as pulpits, ambos, benches and
more will fit through the entry.
What color do you need?
Most churches have some type of color coordination.
Ideally, it is nice to have everything match. One thing
many people don't realize is that different types of wood
and stains often compliment each other. You don't want to
choose a fabric or wood stain that clashes or looks bad.
Keeping the furniture consistent and colors matching helps
to create a harmonious environment.
We have a wide variety of wood stains and fabric colors
available for our products. We have the color options
available to look at online. If needed, we also have color
samples of fabric and wood that we can mail to you. That
way you can rest assured the colors look great.
Is quality an issue?
Most churches rely on donations to get money to purchase
church furniture. This means that money is not always in
great abundance. This money needs to purchase something
that will last. Unlike many businesses, churches cannot
afford to re-furnish every couple of years. Many products
sold online, and in catalogs, are made from inexpensive
particle board that cannot take much wear or tear. Church
furniture needs to be high-quality and last for many years.
Although our furniture may be a bit more of an investment
up front, our furniture is hand-made from high-quality
northern red oak from New York state. It will last you for
years to come. If a piece of furniture isn’t quite what you
are looking for, we can make custom modifications to the
solid wood furniture.
How soon can you get the furniture?
Our furniture is hand-made and built-to-order. You can
expect furniture to be typically shipped within two weeks
of an order being placed. Thanks to new modifications at
our furniture factory, this time is often shorter. A sales
associate will keep you up-to-date regarding your
furniture.
