At the Bleacher Store, you'll find an affordable selection of spectator seating. They're constructed to meet recommended national safety standards and will provide years of use indoors and outside. Selecting sports and event seating is no easy task. You want to be assured of code compliance, durability and ease of setup. The many configurations include low profile and standard tiered benches.
When you're ready to upgrade or replace existing seating, you'll find that aluminum or galvanized steel framing is available in a range of widths and bench levels. These are reliable materials that provide long lasting provisions for any facility. Many models are ready to splice together so you can extend the capacity to suit any setting. You won't have to worry about rotting wood and break-throughs, which is a common issue with older systems. Ensure fan safety by selecting any of our new frames and tiered units.
In fact, older bleachers present a great many hazards for spectators and should be replaced with newer systems that are up to code. Standard steel framing will deteriorate over time. Wood planks in need of repair or replacement are sometimes difficult to spot until an accident occurs. Foundations can also provide instability with underground movement. Older units often incorporate wider gapping that contributes to injuries from falling and tripping. They are commonly not childproof. Cross bracing and bolts tend to loosen over time. Any of these can quickly become liability issues.
Low-rise bleachers offer great economic value that's paired with the highest quality construction. These typically do not require guardrails when the third tier is at 30 inches or less, and are ideal solutions for community playing fields and some parks. They're a popular choice in gyms and at tennis courts. These lightweight units are easy to maneuver by most adults. Seating widths are standard and framing is tip proof. Place them on any surface or bolt them to slabs for permanent use. The three-row units can typically seat about 10 spectators per row.
Portables are also available with a standard choice of plank colors. Coatings are scuff and weather resistant and they're always in demand for interior locations. These are also durable and will allow for moving across fields and gymnasium floors. As with the other models, framing is one-piece galvanized to provide the maximum stability at level locations.
Our non-elevated systems are also lighter in weight and feature extruded aluminum planking. These will provide many years of use and are virtually maintenance free. You'll find a range of configurations that also include safety link enclosures to meet safety codes with heights of 42 inches. They're angled to provide support at the sides for access to higher rows.
