At Event Shed this year, we have focussed on developing our high quality Crossback Chairs for you.

We know how hard it is to source high quality event furnishings. Your purchases have so many measures to live up to!

  • Complements the tipi/sperry tent/marquee/stretch tent/venue

With the popularity of Crossback Chairs increasing, the number of variations and sellers are increasing too. So how do you find your diamond in the rough?

We’ve put together ‘6 Features of Quality Crossback Chairs’ to help you, drawing on our product development process for our exclusive new Crossback Chairs with interchangeable seat pads.

#1 SUPPORTIVE

First and foremost, a chair has to support the weight of your client and their guests!

Make sure the seat frame ledge that supports the pad is at least 10mm wide. The cushion/rattan pad should be a tight fit and, in quality Crossback Chairs, will be held in place with velcro fastenings as well. The seat pad itself should have a substantial flat wooden base to it.

#2 STRONG

Fixings should not be out of sight, out of mind! Check fixings are substantial to withstand the abuse of the event and rental industry.

Wood joints with a lot of contact surface area are best glued.  Those with minimal surface contact are best screwed after pre-drilling, so as not to split the wood. If in doubt, joints glued and screwed are best!

#3 CONSISTENT

Consistent colour, material and finish is vital for client-appeal!

#4 STACKABLE

Stacking saves space when storing and transporting the chairs.

For Crossbacks to stack well, the ‘cross’ must not ‘wrap around’ past the seat back and there needs to be a notch in the seat frame to allow the legs to stack.

The end of the semi circular seat frame supports need to be level because they will sit on the next seat frame when stacked!

#5 SPARES AVAILABLE

A supplier of quality Crossback Chairs will be able to provide spare fixings and parts… because their chairs are worth fixing! At Event Shed, we offer spare fixings, seat pads, and ‘crosses’.

#6 VALUE FOR MONEY

Event furniture hire is extremely competitive so you want your Crossback Chair to give you value.

Our exclusive, high quality Crossback Chairs with interchangeable seat pads offers you the opportunity to buy and store just one frame and offer two different chairs… saving you money and doubling the offering to your clients! Seat pads are also easier to clean when removed.

QUALITY CROSSBACK CHAIRS -THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING…

Obviously we are very proud of the high quality Crossback Chair we have developed at Event Shed, but we’re a bit biased! So here’s what one of our returning customers has to say…
