Flexible Multipurpose Seating

Today, numerous facilities maximize revenue through the use of removable seating to complement permanent seating. Change seat configurations as diverse performances dictate. Use removable, multipurpose seating in houses of worship, government buildings and civic centers.

Pre-owned Seating

If you are working with a budget, consider our used chairs. Used seats often become available to us as we install new seats around the country. In many cases, it’s possible to acquire pre-owned chairs in superb condition for a fraction of the cost of new seats. If you are in charge of the restoration of a 1920s movie house, 19th century opera house or other historic venue, used seating may be ideal for architectural and stylistic reasons. Expert seat repair by our trained craftsmen takes care of any wear and tear evident on certain used chairs. When necessary, they’ll completely strip and refinish both metal and wood. Our dedicated staff can also do seat repair and reupholster seats.

Key Benefits to Upgraded Seating

If you are responsible for a pre-existing venue, consider the fresh look and feel that replacement seats will offer. As seats age, damage and staining takes a toll. Maintenance crews try hard to breathe new life into these aging chairs, but to no avail. An investment in replacement seating will typically reduce maintenance and cleaning costs, and it may increase revenue as patrons enjoy a more positive experience.
