Did you know?
New York City's Central Park has approximately 9,000 park benches, which would stretch seven miles if placed end to end?

How many people are you looking to accommodate? 
Industry standard states every 18” equals one seat.  All outdoor park benches are available in a variety of sizes starting as short as 4 feet and measuring as large as 15 feet.  If your trying to accommodate 20 people and want to know how many 6 foot benches they should purchase, simply utilize the below calculation.

Convert 6 feet into inches = 72 inches per park bench. Divide the result by 18 to determine how many people can fit on one bench.  72/18=4 people per bench.  The customer in this example will need five 6 foot benches to accommodate 20 patrons.

How do I know what mounting option I need? 
There are three common mounting options industry wide.  Portable, surface mount and In-ground mount.  Each mounting option satisfies a specific requirement.  

Portable - A portable mount is required if you would like to move the park bench from one location to another.  This is a non-permanent mount that will just allow the product to rest on a flat level surface independently without anchoring.

Surface Mount -The surface mount option is meant for the customer that wants to anchor the park benches down so they are semi-permanent.  This mounting option requires a concrete or asphalt surface in order to anchor bolts into the mounting surface.  The surface mount option is one that can be flexible.  If your customer wants to relocate the bench, they just need to remove the anchor bolts and relocate the bench to the location of choice.

In-Ground - This mounting option is the most permanent of the three mounting options.  The most common placement for an in-ground mount is in a grassy area or in an area that will have a future concrete pad.  This mounting option requires more labor than the other two mounting options as a predetermined number of holes must be drilled a minimum of 16” below grade, concrete must be poured in each hole, and the frame must be set in the concrete overnight for curing.  Once the concrete has cured overnight then the balance of the components can be attached to the already installed frame.  This is a permanent mounting option and cannot be relocated once installed. There is a word of caution when utilizing in-ground mountIf the outdoor park benches are not at the proper depth below grade, the thaw and freezing conditions can boost the benches out of the ground.


How do I know what material type I need?
Where are you installing the product? If your venue is a Hotel and you want to place commercial benches along the beach behind the hotel, then you will need to recommend a non-corrosive material that will not rust in a salt environment.  Our best recommendation would be either Recycled Plastic or Concrete.  You will want to stay away from any type of material that has metal as a salt environment will just corrode any type of metal.
 
If your venue is a park and recreation and you’re looking to purchase park benches to place throughout your property, almost anything goes.  A key thing to consider is how much use these park benches will get. The use will determine how durable of a material you will need.  Another  factor to consider will be the maintenance schedule. In the industry we know that a park bench manufactured with wood requires the highest amount of maintenance. A great recommendation for low maintenance options would be recycled plastic or thermoplastic coated park benches.
