Where do I find office chairs for large employees and visitors?
Where do I find office chairs for large employees and visitors? More and more of our employees and visitors are too large for our chairs.
If some of your old office chairs have been breaking or are too small for some people you are aware that this is becoming a very common situation.
Fortunately, there are now office chairs called "Big and Tall Chairs" that are designed particularly for the larger user. Standard commercial quality office chairs are usually designed for people weighing up to 250 lbs with usage over a 40 work week. Office chairs for heavier users have higher weight capacities -- sometimes 400 or even 500 lbs or more. Chairs made for both the heavier and larger person also have larger proportions -- the seats on these office chairs are often around 24" wide instead of a typical 19", and the seats on guest chairs can be as wide as 28" instead of the more common 20" width. Some of these chairs also have advanced ergonomic controls, so the user can enjoy the same ergonomic comfort as found on standard ergonomic chairs.
A closely related category of office chairs is the "24 Hour Multi-Shift Chairs". These chairs usually have standard proportions, but their extra-heavy duty design allows them to be used around the clock. These chairs are perfect for dispatch centers, telemarketing centers, and other situations where the chair is constantly in use.
Modern Office features a large selection of Big and Tall Chairs and 24 Hour Multi-Shift Chairs. Most are in stock for immediate shipment.
