The Litchard Extended Bench is a custom version of the standard Litchard Bench, created for projects that require a longer seating solution without compromising on durability, appearance or practicality. Based on the original design, this extended model retains the same robust construction and clean, contemporary style, while allowing the overall length to be manufactured to suit the specific needs of the site. The standard product features a heavy-duty steel frame with seven timber slats as standard, making it well suited to busy public environments.
Designed for use in public realm schemes, education settings, commercial developments and landscaped outdoor areas, the Litchard Extended Bench offers a flexible seating option where a standard bench length may not provide enough capacity. Its simple, durable design makes it suitable for both modern and traditional environments, while the custom length option allows greater freedom when planning coordinated external works or larger communal spaces.
The original Litchard Bench is supplied with either FSC treated softwood, hardwood Iroko or FSC hardwood Iroko slat options available. This provides flexibility for projects where aesthetics, maintenance requirements or material preferences vary. The frame is finished hot dip galvanised to BS EN ISO 1461, with optional colour finishes available in a range of standard RAL and BS colours to complement surrounding architecture or landscape schemes.
For installation, the Litchard Extended Bench can be specified baseplatyed as standard, or root fixed for secure permanent placement. This makes it suitable for a wide variety of site conditions and project types. By offering a made-to-measure overall length with optional arm rests, it is a strong choice for architects, contractors and specifiers looking for a custom length outdoor bench that combines durable materials with a versatile public realm design.
