Our advice Buying Guide

Park benches made of concrete offer several advantages compared to other types of bench seating. They have the ability to resist rotting, fading, and being blown by heavy winds. If you’re on the lookout for a garden seating option that’s the most durable, then you should look no further than concrete park benches. They blend in with any landscaping and they last a lifetime without requiring any care or maintenance.

Where to place a concrete park bench?

Here are a few tips that you should remember when selecting the location of your new garden bench:

The area near your garden bench made of concrete should be free from cigarette receptacles, trash, and nasty pests. This is to ensure your outdoor seating isn’t just comfortable, but safe health-wise as well.
Add a concrete park bench in an area that’s shaded. You wouldn’t want your family to sit outdoors all sweaty. So, make sure you consider adding your new bench in a place where there’s shade during the hottest point of the day.
Consider the view as well. Do you have an area within your property that overlooks a green field or has a mountain in the background? If so, then place the bench where you get the best view.
If the concrete park bench will be placed in a public area, think of where a tired jogger would want to sit. It may be for a parent who’s watching over a kid while it plays on the grass or playground. A park bench offers a place for those who want to relax and enjoy the outdoor weather. However, this can only be done if it is placed correctly.

Adding a bench in the wrong area will likely result in having a bench that goes unused.

How to ensure the comfort of concrete park benches?

To be practical, a concrete park bench should feel comfortable to sit on even during sunny days. The problem with concrete benches is they can be chilly when sat on. You may need a removable cushion when you sit on one.

Armrests will also add more comfort to the users of a concrete park bench when they are set at the right angles. Choose the bench that has armrests that are wide enough to set a drinking glass. This is necessary if you plan on lounging on the bench for a long period of time. As for the backrest, it should be at least at the same height as your shoulder.

It is a good idea to get the measurements of your available outdoor space before you buy one. Consider the number of people that will be using the bench at a time. Each 5-6 ft bench can accommodate a maximum of 2 people.

What to pair concrete park benches with?

An outdoor area can be furnished like an indoor room. You would want to do so if you want to make the most out of your property. Apart from the concrete park bench, you should consider adding a few accessories as well to finish the space apart from increasing its “wow factor.” Lighting, a parasol, storage, outdoor rugs, and a patio heater are just some of your options.
