Church Furnishings, Pews, and Chairs

In years past, most church furnishings consisted of pews in the sanctuary, tables and folding chairs in the Sunday school classes and fellowship hall, and that was all. More recently, many churches have begun to use multi-purpose rooms for many functions, including worship, or to install movable seating in the sanctuary to give greater flexibility. Classroom furnishings also vary a lot more than they used to.

To assist you in furniture selection, Akers CBS has listed below several companies that provide various furnishings and related services. Many of these firms we have worked with, some we have not. We have no business arrangement with any of them, and they are listed in no particular order. Click on the company name to be taken directly to their website.

As in everything, furniture quality varies greatly. Be sure and check references of the companies you are interested in, and in the case of pews or theater seats, visit an installation or two to check and see if it is what you need. Some of the companies listed will provide a sample chair, most of the pew providers have representatives who will meet with you and show samples and pictures of their products. Pew stain colors and fabrics should be evaluated by your architect/interior designer for coordination with other elements in the interior design.

Pew arrangement is usually part of architectural design services, but if you are replacing the pews in an existing building, the manufacturer will often do the layout. Be sure and check to see if there is an extra cost for other services, such as layout, delivery, and installation, or if those are included in the price of the pews.

The following manufacture and sell pews and pulpit/chancel furniture. Most also handle movable/stackable chairs, either steel frame or wooden "pew chairs."
