URBAN BENCHES

Installing park benches securely requires careful consideration of the foundation to ensure longevity and safety. The most reliable foundation for permanent park bench installation is a concrete base. Begin by preparing the site with level ground and excavating an area approximately 6-8 inches deep and slightly larger than the bench footprint. Pour concrete into the excavation, ensuring it's level and smooth. While the concrete is still wet, insert anchor bolts or mounting plates that match your bench's mounting system. Allow the concrete to cure completely for 3-7 days before attaching the bench. For temporary installations or softer ground, consider using ground anchors or helical piers, though these provide less stability than concrete. Always check local regulations and soil conditions, as frost lines and drainage patterns may require deeper foundations or additional drainage materials beneath the concrete. Proper foundation installation prevents shifting, tipping, and weathering damage, ensuring your park benches remain secure for years of public use.
