Whether you're outfitting a transit terminal with multi-seat beam configurations or furnishing a bariatric medical facility, our heavy duty options deliver years of reliable service with minimal maintenance requirements.
FAQs:
What makes a chair suitable for commercial use? Commercial-grade chairs feature reinforced steel frames, heavy-duty gas lifts, industrial-strength upholstery, and components that meet ANSI/BIFMA standards for continuous use. These specifications ensure chairs withstand high-traffic environments without premature wear or safety failures.
What's the difference between 300 lb and 500 lb capacity chairs? Higher capacity chairs incorporate oversized gas lifts, reinforced frame construction, thicker seat pans, wider seat dimensions, and upgraded mechanisms. The 500-pound models accommodate larger users more comfortably and provide additional durability margin for extended commercial use.
Is beam seating suitable for outdoor use? Our beam seating is designed for indoor commercial applications. While the powder-coated steel and polyurethane materials offer excellent durability, outdoor exposure to weather elements can accelerate wear and isn't covered under warranty specifications.
