Patio dining chairs and how to size them
Patio dining chairs are upright seats built to sit at an outdoor table, and select styles here come in sets of two or more. Some are stackable, which helps when you need extra seats.
Choose a seat height that suits your table, and leave about three feet behind each chair so people can slide out comfortably.
Metal patio chairs and aluminum frames
Metal patio chairs use aluminum, steel or iron frames that stay sturdy outdoors. Aluminum is naturally rust-resistant, while steel and iron can show rust if the finish chips, so touch up scratches early.
Some metal chairs pair a frame with resin wicker or fabric, which keeps the seat lighter and easier to move.
Swivel patio chairs and glider styles
Swivel patio chairs turn so you can face a conversation or the view without dragging the chair. Some come with cushions and a wicker or aluminum frame.
Glider chairs move back and forth on a fixed base, which suits a porch. Both styles also work on a small patio where a rocker would need more room.
Patio rocking chairs and Adirondack chairs
Patio rocking chairs bring a gentle motion to a porch, and select models here are wicker, HDPE or wood. Adirondack chairs have a deep, reclined seat, and some fold flat for storage.
Pick HDPE if you want a style that needs little upkeep and wipes clean easily, or solid wood if you prefer a classic look and are willing to reseal it.
Aluminum patio chairs and weather care
Aluminum patio chairs are light and naturally rust-resistant, and HDPE and resin wicker chairs also resist moisture and sun better than untreated wood. Some chairs are solid acacia, which lasts longest when sealed.
Wash chairs with mild soap and water, let cushions dry before storing them, and use covers or winter storage to protect the finish.
