Retractable Seating.

The Seating Services retractable seating system is an innovative way to save time, money and space through cutting-edge design and time tested principles. With all the advantages of a fixed seating system, a retractable bleacher allows for comfort and safety while also allowing access to the floor space when not in use.

Each retractable seating system will be structurally sound and custom designed to meet every client’s varying requirements. From 30 to 3000 chairs, we realise each situation is different to the next, and that is why we pride ourselves on our ability to build a system that best suits your situation.

Seating Services has two classes of retractable seating available: The 900 series and the 1000 series with details as shown below. Each system has unique benefits to suit the type of installation required.
