Banqueting Chairs Methods For Seating A Group Comfortably
Banqueting chairs are used for many different purposes. They might be intended for a banquet, especially a catered one. They might be found at a restaurant, dining hall, concert, overflow seating or church fellowship halls. Chairs intended for this purpose must be utilitarian, but they should also be comfortable for people who are attending the event. Sometimes the chairs are rented and others may be purchased for repeated usage.
Churches and meeting halls may choose to purchase chairs rather than to rent them each time a meeting, concert, overflow crowd or reception occurs. Rental business chairs are often quite generic. They usually can be stacked or placed in racks of some type so they can be easily transported from the store to the location where the event will be held. More expensive rental chairs can feature padded or upholstered seats and backs but will still be stackable.
Hotels usually have chairs available that are suitable either for food events or for seminars and conference style meetings. Guests at a catered hotel banquet expect more comfortable chairs. They are often padded and upholstered, although the fabric on the seats and or backs is often selected for easy-clean characteristics.
You can purchase or rent chairs in almost any color so that they blend with the hues and the decor of the meeting or banquet hall. Realistically, chairs that will be used in high traffic areas are likely to be produced in darker or patterned fabrics so that they aren’t as likely to show spills and soil. Plastic chairs have fewer color choices available, but are simpler to wipe down. They are noisier than upholstered seating.
The best quality chairs that have upholstered seats can be recovered to eliminate signs of wear. The chair legs selected for areas where they will be moved around by the patron may have roller wheels that are large enough to avoid excessive wear on the floor covering. Other styles of chairs that are more like those found in a home dining room can use glider pads to make moving around easier.
In deciding whether chairs should be upholstered or not, and what basic design should be used, a key ingredient is personal preference. The choices are almost unlimited. The chairs can be of wood, plastic or metal. The color choices are extensive.
Chair legs might be made of metal. This type of chair is suitable for heavy wear locations. They can be easily cleaned, but are somewhat heavier than chairs made of plastic. Chairs in an outdoor location must be made of materials that are unlikely to rust or be otherwise damaged by dampness or sun.
Banqueting chairs intended to be rented must be more durable than others. They see heavy use by seated guests during the events for which they are rented. They also have the wear from transporting the seating from the rental location to the site of the event.
