The Best Church Chairs for Sloped Concrete Floors

Cushioned Folding Chairs

• Individual folding chairs allow members to have their own seats with accompanying arm rests. High quality folding chairs come with cushioned seat backs and seats. You can set the seats as far apart as you desire to give your members a comfortable amount of individual space. You can also bolt the feet of these folding chairs to steel rails that secure them to the ground. The bolts and rails come with the chairs.

Wooden Folding Rows

• You can also purchase rows of connected wooden folding chairs. You can specify how many chairs you want per row to the manufacturer. The chairs are connected by steel inserts along the feet of the seats to make the connected rows. The weight of the rows usually keeps them in place, but you can bolt the ends to the ground as well. The seats are closer together than the individual cushioned chairs, but still offer a sense of individual seating.

Non-folding Cushioned Chairs

• To maintain that sense of individual space, you can purchase standard cushioned chairs. These chairs do not fold, but have a steel frame covered with cushioning. You can pick the chair colors that best mesh with your sanctuary's interior. Because your floor is concrete and most likely light gray in color, you may want to purchase a contrasting dark color, such as black, dark blue or purple. Manufacturers design the chair feet with oval-shaped rubber to minimize chair movement.

Traditional Pews

• You may have grown up going to a church with pews for seats. These long wooden benches may seem out of style, but they offer great flexibility for both your members and your budget. Now, you can purchase cushioned pews in any desired color and bench length. Instead of occupying a specific seat, members can spread out how they please and lay their belongings in any nearby space. The weight from the pews holds them in place, and manufacturers design them specifically for the sloped floors common in traditional churches.
