The chair kits comprise everything you need to restore your garden chair. Included is a set of wooden slats and a set of bolts.

Yes, you can order whatever kit parts you need. When you order, you will have the option to pick and choose what's included in your kit.

If you don’t require slats, you can purchase chair accessories separately.

Yes, we can. These can be ordered using our Custom Restoration Kit order form.

The standard slats are 56mm long x 20mm thick and come in 2 widths: 55mm and 35mm.

We can provide several combinations of slat types. Our chair kits come with 8 wide and 4 narrow slats, 9 wide and 3 narrow slats, or 10 wide with 2 narrow.

We use iroko timber for our restoration kits. Iroko is also known as African teak since it shares many of the properties of teak, including the colour.  It is a very durable hardwood, ideally suited to temperate climates. It is both insect and rot resistant, making it the ideal type of wood for street furniture products.

To prevent Iroko slatted seats from staining, aging or discolouring, teak oil can be used as a protective measure to repel water and shield the wood from sun and weather. Iroko is much harder than oak and because it is a naturally oily timber it is often used for joinery which will be subjected to hostile environments. Learn more.

We do not recommend either of these treatments unless you adore flaky wood and love maintenance.

The slats are all iroko wood and can be supplied untreated, or treated with a base coat of teak oil.

Assembling our DIY kits couldn't be easier. The only tools you need are a drill, a spanner and screwdrivers. As long as you have all the items shown below, you have everything you need!
