Yes, urban benches can be bolted directly into concrete, and this is often the standard, most secure method for permanent public installations. You do not typically need a separate "special base," but you absolutely require the correct hardware and technique. The concrete itself acts as the foundational base. The critical element is using specialized concrete anchors—such as wedge anchors, sleeve anchors, or chemical anchors—designed to expand and grip securely within the drilled hole. The process involves drilling precise holes into the concrete, cleaning out all dust, and then setting the anchors before tightening the bench's mounting bolts. This creates a robust, fixed connection that prevents theft and ensures stability. However, it's vital to check local building codes, assess the concrete's condition (it must be sound and thick enough), and use corrosion-resistant hardware for outdoor use. For temporary placements or on very thin or poor-quality concrete, a freestanding weighted base might be an alternative, but for permanent urban fixtures, direct bolting with proper anchors is the industry norm.
Can the urban benches be bolted directly into concrete, or do we need a special base?
