# How to Fix a Rickety Bar Chair
Continual use of bar chairs will lead to the separation of the legs from the seat. This will cause the chairs to become unsteady and easily tipped. By adding additional support to the chair's structure, you can renew its strength and extend the useful life of the chair. Routine maintenance and chair inspections also will increase the chair's longevity.
