A Modern Outdoor Steel Bench for Public Realm Use
The Sherwood Bench is defined by its continuous linear form, with the seat profile extending seamlessly into the side structure. This creates a robust, understated metal bench that complements modern urban design without unnecessary detailing.
Typical settings include:
• Town centres and pedestrianised streets
• Parks and landscaped visitor spaces
• Transport interchanges and station forecourts
• Residential developments and shared courtyards
• Education campuses and healthcare environments
Its all-steel construction makes it particularly well suited to high-footfall areas where longevity is essential.
Steel Construction and Long-Term Durability
As an outdoor steel bench, Sherwood is manufactured to withstand year-round exposure and daily public use. The full steel build provides excellent structural integrity and resistance to impact, making it a practical option for local authorities and contractors specifying long-life seating.
Key benefits include:
• Strong, all-metal design with minimal maintenance requirements
• Clean lines that discourage dirt traps and simplify cleaning
• Suitable for both contemporary and mixed-material streetscapes
• Manufactured to order for consistent project integration
Bespoke Lengths for Streetscape Consistency
Unlike fixed-size seating, the Sherwood Bench can be produced in custom lengths, allowing designers to create continuous seating runs or adapt layouts around planters, walls, or public gathering areas.
This makes it a strong choice for coordinated street benches within wider regeneration and placemaking projects.
Fixing Options for Secure Installation
To suit different ground conditions and site requirements, the Sherwood Bench is available with alternative installation methods:
• Base plated for surface mounting onto hardstanding
• Root fixed for maximum stability in open public areas
These options support secure placement across parks, promenades, and busy urban locations.
Colour and Finish Options
The Sherwood Bench can be supplied in a choice of standard Broxap colour finishes, enabling alignment with broader street furniture palettes or local authority branding.
A durable coated finish also provides added protection against corrosion in exposed outdoor settings.
Integrated Cycle Parking Option
For schemes requiring combined infrastructure, the Sherwood Bench can be specified with an optional slot for a short-stay cycle holder (front wheel support). This is particularly useful in space-conscious environments such as:
• Retail streets
• Campus settings
• Transport hubs
• Urban pocket parks
It can also be paired with Broxap’s wider range of cycle parking products and coordinated street furniture items such as litter bins, bollards, and planters.
