When installing park benches, a common question arises: can they be bolted directly into asphalt, or is a concrete footing necessary? The short answer is that while direct asphalt installation is possible, it's generally not recommended for permanent, secure installations. Asphalt is a flexible material that compresses and expands with temperature changes, which can loosen bolts over time, causing the bench to become wobbly or unsafe. For heavy-use public benches, a concrete footing is the standard and recommended practice. Concrete provides a rigid, stable base that securely anchors the bench legs, preventing movement and ensuring long-term durability. If you must install on existing asphalt, using specialized asphalt anchors or epoxy can offer a temporary solution, but for permanent park installations, pouring concrete footings is the best approach for safety and longevity.
