Great question! The answer depends on which model you’re looking at, because we offer both types.
Our park benches with armrests are designed for classic comfort and added safety. They help prevent people from sliding off the sides, provide a clear boundary for each seating spot, and discourage lying down—which is actually a feature many parks, shopping centers, and transit stations prefer. These benches are great for areas where you want to maximize seating capacity and keep the space feeling orderly.
On the other hand, we also offer open-style park benches without armrests. These are often chosen for more relaxed environments like gardens, picnic areas, or beachfront promenades, where people might want to stretch out and lie down for a nap or to sunbathe. Without armrests, the bench offers a continuous flat surface, making it more versatile for different body positions.
So, to directly answer your question: Yes, we do have both options. If you’re purchasing for a public space where you want to discourage sleeping or loitering, go with the armrest version. If you want a more flexible, comfortable bench for lounging, the open kind is your best pick.
Just let me know your setting and goals, and I can point you to a specific series that fits perfectly.
