When considering the design of urban benches for bus stops, armrests are a critical feature that significantly impacts user comfort, safety, and accessibility. Our benches offer thoughtfully designed armrest options to cater to diverse public needs.
For standard installations, we provide integrated, powder-coated steel armrests. These are durable, weather-resistant, and offer a comfortable resting point for waiting passengers. A key design consideration is the inclusion of supportive armrests at each end of the bench, which greatly assists older adults and individuals with mobility challenges when sitting down or standing up.
In line with principles of inclusive design and to prevent lying down, we also offer models with intermediate armrests or dividers. These segmented armrests create individual seating spaces, promoting orderly use while still providing support. For a more streamlined aesthetic, some of our contemporary designs feature sleek, tubular stainless steel armrests that are both robust and easy to maintain.
Ultimately, our armrest configurations are chosen to enhance the waiting experience. They provide necessary physical support, contribute to public space management, and ensure our street furniture is welcoming and functional for the entire community. The goal is to merge practical durability with user-centered design for better urban living.
