When Stadia Seating needs replacing
What ever type of outdoor sports stadium from Football to Rugby, Cricket to Athletics if you have stadia seating, over time there is the chance that it will need to be replaced. Stadia Seating may need to be replaced for a number of reasons
- Has the existing stadia seating has gone rusty and isn’t looking as good or professional as it should
- Have the stadia seating plastic mouldings faded and become brittle over time. Leading to a varied mixture of seat colours
- Over a period of many years use the stadia seats have worn out and are no longer providing a satisfactory user experience
- Are you getting complaints from spectators that certain stadia seats are no longer suitable for use because they are broken or faulty
- Over time has the consistency of seating throughout the ground or stand changed as different manufacturers have provided different stadia seating at different times
What to consider when replacing Stadia Seating
There are a number of key factors (outside of the stadia seating product selection) that should be taking into consideration when replacing stadia seating.
- Has the Stadia Seating company you have selected got a proven track record of completing seating installations on time and to budget
- Is the stadia seating manufactured in the UK. There are many instances when the seating that has been manufactured overseas has not arrived on time which has significantly delayed installation
- Does the actual stadia seating installation need to be carried out in between fixtures so as to minimise disruption to supporters.
- As well as providing the stadia seating can the manufacturer offer an installation service. This overcomes the issue of having two separate providers whereby they will each play one another off each other.
- Most importantly does the supplier have an Installation Manager who has worked on similar projects in the past and can ensure that your stadia seating is installed correctly and on time
