Steel Metal Patio Furniture
Elegance and industrial strength of steel furniture
Steel is often chosen for industrial applications, due to its extreme tensile strength, heat tolerance and corrosion resistance. These characteristics also make it an excellent material choice for outdoor furniture. Stainless steel outdoor patio furniture merges clean lines with a robust construction that promises longevity and easy maintenance.
Engineered to endure
Stainless steel frame outdoor furniture offers the strength and resistance to corrosion needed to ensure your elegant patio setting remains pristine year-round. When compared to aluminum, steel is unmatched in its durability. While aluminum offers many cost and portability benefits, it can dent more easily than stainless steel. You can also have peace of mind that your outdoor steel furniture will not blow away under windy conditions and support much heavier tempered glass or ceramic tabletops.
However, while nearly impervious to rust and other corrosive processes, regular stainless steel can be broken down by salt air and water. Consider marine-grade, high chromium and powder-coated stainless steel, which is protected against virtually all oxidation from the elements. This should be used for all coastal residential and commercial installations.
Powder-coated steel is frequently used for outdoor dining sets in commercial settings. Bistros with sidewalk seating require durable metal furniture, since dining table and chairs are frequently moved and stacked, and may be left out in the elements. Powder-coating also allows restaurants to coordinate with their palette or infuse the space with a pop of color to attract patrons
Sleek and eco-chic
The practical benefits of stainless patio furniture are matched only by its aesthetic versatility. Its metallic silver finish, whether matte, brushed or mirrored, has a stylish contemporary style that complements the clean lines of modern furniture design.
Because they're very strong, steel frames can extend and flow in artistic forms, without being interrupted by unnecessary welds or joints. These clean and precise lines bring a sense of order and sophistication to outdoor spaces. In its raw form or with dark finishes, steel can mimic the look and feel of wrought iron without the high maintenance.
Additionally, stainless steel is frequently made from recycled metals and does not need to be replaced often, which make it an eco-friendly option as well.
.Versatile designs
The adaptability of steel outdoor furniture extends beyond its visual appeal. This industrious material is designed to integrate seamlessly with a variety of materials from teak wood, resin wicker, HPL, ceramic and glass, enhancing the overall look without compromising functionality. Unlike some metals, steel frame dining tables have the strength to support large heavy ceramic or tempered glass tabletops. The sleek silvery metal provides a stark contrast to many of the faux marble or frosted glass options in modern collections.
Metal patio furniture lounge sets are often upholstered with weather-resistant cushions with comforting textures with vibrant colors and chic neutral tones. The sturdy steel structures provide stability and style in a relaxed design. Each curated piece of steel outdoor patio furniture in the brands we carry stands as a testament to how luxury and practicality can coexist.
Low maintenance in most settings
Stainless steel is also easy to clean and resists discoloration (hence the name), so your patio furniture sets will look great for years. Typical residential and commercial environments only require regular cleaning with soft cloths and soapy water. Salt air locations call for more frequent cleaning to prevent superficial corrosion build-up. This discoloration, called "tea staining," doesn't harm the metal outdoor furniture. Its shiny finish can easily be returned with the use of Scotch-Brite® pads and specialty stainless steel cleansers.
Powder-coated steel can be cleaned with a soft brush and mild soapy water. Minor nicks and scratches are mended by applying matching touch-up paint, which is usually available through the manufacturer or at paint stores.
