Outdoor Barstools 101 by Cymax Stores
The fortune of having the space and means to entertain guests outdoors on your propertyis one that should be both appreciated and put to good use. While the patio table set willnever be overtaken as the outdoor fixture of choice, the rise in popularity of counter tables and serving stations has meant less-conventional seating options are beingconsidered by consumers with increasing frequency.Once exclusively the domain of a home’s interior, the bar stool has since stepped outsideand declared itself as being equally practical and stylish in or out of doors. Outdoor  barstools are popular in both residential and commercial applications, and offer the samecounter-height seating as indoor stools but with increased durability and resiliency to theelements.Whether it’s an outdoor bar or gathering table or their standing alone at certain spots onthe deck , patio or in the garden, a number of outdoor barstools can be a final touch increating your own open-air entertaining area. Choosing a model that is compatible withthe particulars of your outdoor area is not as demanding a process as compared to other home furnishing purchases, but there are still some very important considerations. AtCymax Stores, we’re happy to take some time to guide you through them with the hopeof your being entirely satisfied with your outdoor barstool purchase. Let’s get started:
Seat height
Do you intend to pair your barstools with a gathering table, bar or any similar fixture?The first step is to measure the counter (table top) height of any for which you will be purchasing stools. As a rule, the seat height of a barstool should be approximately 12inches (1 foot) less than the counter height. Bar stools are commonly manufactured in24, 26 and 30 inch sizes, and accordingly a 24” stool will be best suited to a counter height in the vicinity of 35-37 inches. A 26” will work well with one 38-40” high and a30” stool is designed for use with counters 41-43” in height or slightly larger. Someextra tall models are available in excess of 30” seat height and can be looked at for seating with exceptionally tall pieces.
Location
Where you choose to locate your barstools out of doors is going to factor into your decision as it will dictate which construction materials and features will be most practical.The degree and frequency with which your stools may be exposed to the elements willmean certain materials are unsuitable while others are preferable.For example, some wooden barstools designed for outdoor use will feature a pressuretreatment and/or exterior coating that will allow them to be protected from exposure. Awooden frame barstool without such treatment will be fine out of doors only if on acovered patio or an area covered by an awning, and
ALL
wooden barstools should be brought indoors at the end of summer or in early fall.
