Absolutely, we do have benches that are wheelchair accessible! It’s a common question I get, and I’m always happy to say that accessibility is a priority for us.
When we talk about wheelchair accessible benches, we’re referring to seating that’s designed to be used comfortably by individuals using wheelchairs, walkers, or other mobility aids. Typically, these benches have a few key features. They usually have a backrest and armrests, but the most important element is the space next to the bench. Unlike standard benches, an accessible bench has an open area on one or both sides, allowing a wheelchair to pull up directly alongside the seating surface. This means you can transfer from your wheelchair to the bench, or simply sit in your chair while facing the bench with a friend.
We offer them in different materials too. For instance, you can get them in durable recycled plastic, which is low-maintenance and resistant to weather. We also have aluminum and wood options. Many of our accessible benches also meet ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements, ensuring they have the right seat height (usually around 17 to 19 inches from the ground) and stable armrests for support.
Beyond just benches, we also carry wheelchair accessible picnic tables. These typically have a tabletop that extends out at both ends, so a wheelchair user can roll right into the seating area without bumping into legs. Perfect for parks, schoolyards, or any public space where inclusivity matters.
So if you need seating that truly works for everyone, I’d recommend looking into our accessible collection. Feel free to let me know if you need specific dimensions or color options, and I’ll help you find exactly what works for your space
