Backless Benches

Outdoor Backless Benches for Paths, Plazas, and Schoolyards

Do your benches face the wrong way for half the people who use them? A bench with a back only seats one direction, so visitors end up on planters and curbs.

Instead of committing a space to one view, outdoor backless benches seat from either side and fit down the middle of a walk, around a quad or along a court. They also sit low in a sightline, so your staff can see across the site.

Facility directors trust these outdoor backless benches because the steel models are coated, the plastic and wood models need no sealing, and most carry a 5-year warranty. As your authorized distributor, Supply-A-City delivers them with free shipping on orders $500+ and expert support, and most of these benches are USA-manufactured.

Sizing Backless Benches From 4 to 15 Feet

Backless benches come as short as 4 feet for a waiting spot or as long as 15 feet for a sports sideline.

  • 4 feet - for narrow walks and single waiting spots, including a 48 inch transit bench with one or three armrests.
  • 6 and 8 feet - the run most schools and parks standardize on, with seats 16 7/8 to 19 3/4 inches high.
  • 10 and 15 feet - sectioned steel benches for dugouts, team areas and long walls.
  • Double width and 24 inch deep seats - room to sit from both sides, including a seat sized to the ADA bench dimensions for length, depth and height.

Steel, Aluminum, Wood or a Recycled Plastic Backless Garden Bench

Pick the material for your maintenance budget. Plastisol and thermoplastic coatings on steel never need painting, aluminum forms no rust, and a recycled plastic backless garden bench has nothing to seal.

Thermally modified ash is the one wood choice. It weathers to silver-gray unless you oil it. Most models come portable, surface mount or inground, so you can anchor the ones on busy walks.

  • 6 or 8 feet - 72 3/8 or 96 3/8 inches long, 19 inch seat height
