Commercial Wood Chairs

The best wood depends on the desired appearance, construction, traffic level, and budget. Common choices for commercial seating include hardwoods such as beech, oak, and ash. The quality of the frame construction and joinery is just as important as the wood species.

It is also helpful to check whether the chair has been tested to applicable commercial furniture standards and whether assembly is required.

Measuring the dining area before ordering can also help determine the appropriate number of chairs.
