That's an excellent and very practical question! Thank you for asking. The answer depends on the specific model of urban bench you select from our collection. We design our products with your convenience in mind, so here's a clear breakdown:
Many of our most popular urban bench models are delivered fully pre-assembled. These heavy-duty, one-piece units are ready for immediate placement and anchoring upon delivery. This is ideal for quick projects in parks, streetscapes, or commercial plazas, minimizing on-site labor and allowing for instant use.
For some larger, modular, or specially designed benches, we ship them in a knocked-down (KD) or flat-pack format. These kits include all necessary hardware and clear instructions. For these, installation is typically straightforward. Our team or your maintenance staff can usually handle it with basic tools like a wrench or an Allen key. No professional contractor is strictly necessary for these standard assemblies.
However, we recommend involving a contractor or professional installer in a few key scenarios:
1. For permanent concrete anchoring: If the bench requires drilling into concrete pavers or slabs for permanent security.
2. On complex or uneven sites: If the installation surface is significantly sloped or irregular.
3. For large-volume orders: When installing dozens of benches, a professional crew ensures efficiency and consistent quality.
4. As per local regulations: Some municipalities require licensed professionals for public space installations.
Our product pages clearly state the assembly status for each item. When in doubt, our sales team is always here to advise on the best setup process for your specific project, ensuring your new urban benches are installed safely, securely, and ready for the community to enjoy.
