Purchasing Outdoor Patio Seating and Yard Chairs

• If you’re in need of patio chairs to complement your outdoor patio table, then you will need to consider the length of the table. Generally, people leave about 2 feet or so between chairs at a dining table, so you can use your table’s length to get an idea of how many patio chairs you will need. In addition, your patio dining table may have an extension to it for large parties. If this is the case, then you may need two to four additional chairs for an occasion where the extension and the additional chairs are warranted.
• The height of your patio dining chairs should be in accord with your patio dining room table. Not only do you have to consider comfort space, but you have to consider if there is enough room to fit a patio chair’s armrests under the table as well (this should especially noted when considering chairs that will be placed near the legs of the patio table).

Patio Chair Materials and Construction

Many patio chairs are made from wood. Wood patio chairs come in a wide variety of styles and shapes. Let’s consider some of the more common styles:

• Adirondack chairs: The typical design features a low seat, high, slanted backrest, and wide armrests. The backrest is often contoured or slatted for comfort, and the seat itself tends to be slightly sloped. Adirondack chairs are a very popular choice for yard chairs.
• Rocking chairs: Some rocking chairs have a simple, minimalist design, while others may have a more ornate, traditional look with features like carved details or intricate backrest patterns. Many rocking chairs also have comfortable, padded seats, although some traditional or rustic styles might forego padding in favor of a purely wooden design. Rocking chairs are a vey popular choice for front porch chairs.
• Cafe chairs: This style of chair typically features a woven seat and back and often has a sleek, modern look. Cafe chairs are designed to withstand heavy use and are often stackable for easy storage and flexibility.
• Bar chairs: Bar chairs, often referred to as bar stools, are typically tall and narrow, designed to fit comfortably at a bar or high counter.
