Metal Bar Stools

Metal Bar Stools provide robust, stylish seating for busy bars, restaurants, cafes and hotel lounges. This range includes high and low metal stools, folding bar chairs and bistro-style seating, many with comfortable wooden seat pads. Designed for commercial use, they combine compact footprints with strong frames to maximise covers at counters and poseur tables. Hard-wearing finishes and contemporary designs help you create a consistent look across indoor and outdoor service areas while standing up to daily use.

• High metal bar stools for counters, bar tops and poseur tables in busy hospitality venues.
• Low metal stools and bistro-style seating ideal for casual dining spaces and compact layouts.
• Options with wooden seat pads for added comfort without sacrificing a modern, industrial look.
• Models with supportive backrests for longer dwell times in bars, hotel lounges and dining rooms.
• Galvanised steel, aluminium and powder-coated frames in a choice of colours and finishes to match your decor.
• Parisian-style and Scandi-inspired metal stools to create distinctive front-of-house seating areas.

How to choose the right Metal Bar Stools

• Measure bar and counter heights to select stools with the correct seat height and leg clearance for comfortable seating.
• Consider whether you need high stools, low stools or a mix to suit bar counters, poseur tables and standard dining tables.
• Choose frame materials such as galvanised steel or aluminium for durability, especially if stools will be used outdoors.
• Decide between backless designs for easy storage and movement, or backrest models for added comfort and support.
• Select colours and finishes that complement your interior scheme, from industrial gun metal to bright bistro shades or Parisian rattan looks.
• Check weight, stacking or folding options if you regularly reconfigure layouts or store stools between services.

Care and maintenance

• Wipe metal frames daily with a mild detergent solution and soft cloth to remove spills, avoiding abrasive pads that can damage coatings.
• Clean wooden seat pads with a damp cloth and neutral cleaner, drying thoroughly to protect the finish and prevent warping.
• Inspect fixings, footrests and glides regularly, tightening screws and replacing worn feet to maintain stability and protect floors.
• For outdoor use, store stools indoors overnight or under cover to reduce weathering and extend the life of metal finishes.
• Follow manufacturer guidance on maximum load and stacking to prevent damage and ensure guest safety.
• Address chips or scratches on coated metal promptly to minimise the risk of corrosion in high-moisture environments.
