Are your dining tables multi-purpose? If you use your dining tables for both inside and outside purposes then you will need to ensure your restaurant tables design suits both environments. This is particularly true of restaurant table bases.

The table base shown performs extremely well in all situations. It is made from cast iron with a stainless steel finish. This makes the table base more durable and is both weather and UV resistant. Stainless steel also helps to prevent any rust issues, which makes it an option for outside dining in coastal areas - always popular for outdoor dining.

This particular table base will suit table top sizes of 24″, 32″ and 36″ and has been manufactured for commercial use. This means of course that it is covered by normal warranties when used in a restaurant. Be wise - always check to make sure your restaurant furniture has been manufactured for commercial use and not domestic use. Domestic furniture used in a commercial environment normally voids any warranties.

Outside dining has become a trend again but restaurant owners are becoming wiser. Rather than dedicating furniture to outdoor or indoor use, they are now looking to use furniture that suits both environments. This means tables and chairs can be moved in and out as the weather, sun position or diner requests.

Restaurant table bases need to be strong and durable. If an inside designed base is used outside it may weaken the structure. This could lead to some interesting accidents should the base fail whilst a diner is getting stuck into a prime piece of steak, or a bowl of hot soup! Find a restaurant tables design that is manufactured for both indoor and outdoor use and you know you’re covered - and your customer won’t be (in soup that is).
