Enhance your outdoor living space with the perfect bench. Our FAQ section covers everything from durability to comfort. Find the answers you need to create a welcoming and stylish outdoor seating area.

Outdoor Benches by Ashley

Outdoor benches are the perfect addition to every outdoor space. Whether you need a simple outdoor patio bench or an entire patio bench set, Ashley has stylish and durable options for every budget. Read on to learn more about our high-quality patio bench/benches.

What is the Best Material for an Outdoor Bench?

A bench helps you enjoy your outdoor space in comfort and style and is available in many different materials and styles. We carry everything from a simple outdoor wooden bench to a lavish outdoor storage bench. Wood and wicker are two popular patio storage bench materials due to their aesthetic and all-weather durability. Wicker is well known for being weather-resistant and lightweight, and it also makes outdoor furniture look beautifully beachy. Many of our wicker benches are available as an outdoor patio storage bench, giving you a place to relax as well as a handy place to store outdoor items.

How to Choose a Wooden Garden Bench for Your Outdoor Space?

Make sure to consider your climate when selecting the bench that works best for your outdoor space. Teak, cedar, eucalyptus, and pine are popular materials for a wood patio bench. Teak is one of the most durable woods and can be left out all year, even in areas with very harsh winters. Eucalyptus owes its weather resistance to its high oil content that makes it resistant to moisture. Cedar is a h2 wood that doesn't warp or sag, and it is also one of the more affordable wood options. Pine is not as naturally all-weather as the other woods, but when pressure treated it makes a great and durable option.

How Do I Protect My Wooden Bench?

Whether it's a simple metal bench or a more elaborate patio table with bench, you want to make sure you keep your outdoor furniture looking great for years to come. Paint is one of the best ways to seal your furniture; this method can sometimes result in the loss of your natural wood look so be careful if choosing this method. You can also use a water sealant or varnish that protects your furniture from moisture while preserving your bench's wooden look. Don't forget to check out Ashley's large variety of outdoor furniture covers that provide your furniture with extra protection! You can use covers and bring your bench indoors in winter to further protect your furniture from the elements.

Best outdoor benches for my garden and patio

The best outdoor benches use weather-resistant materials like HDPE recycled plastic, teak wood, or powder-coated aluminum that handle rain and sun without rotting or fading. These materials need minimal upkeep compared to untreated wood or basic metal frames.

Material Benefits

  • HDPE recycled plastic resists rust and doesn't splinter
  • Teak contains natural oils that repel insects and moisture
  • Powder-coated aluminum won't corrode in humid climates
  • Ashley's >outdoor furniture collectionoutdoor furniture collection features these durable materials
  • Weight capacities range from 500-900 pounds for family use

Best types of outdoor benches for entryways and porches

Entryway and porch benches need durable materials like HDPE recycled plastic, cast aluminum, or hardwoods such as acacia and teak that handle weather exposure. These materials resist fading, rot, and rust with minimal upkeep beyond occasional cleaning.

Material Options

  • HDPE lumber won't chip or splinter and has faux wood grain finishes
  • Cast aluminum stays lightweight and rust-resistant
  • Powder-coated steel provides strength with rust protection
  • Ashley carries benches in these weather-resistant materials

Sizing Considerations

  • Measure porch width and allow three feet of clearance for walking
  • Compact benches fit narrow entryways while larger ones anchor wide porches

Outdoor storage bench vs regular bench

Storage benches cost more than regular benches but solve clutter problems by hiding outdoor cushions, garden tools, and outdoor toys inside the seat compartment. Regular benches focus purely on seating and typically have simpler construction with lower price tags. Ashley offers both types, so the choice depends on whether you need the extra storage space or just a comfortable place to sit.

Storage Bench Benefits

  • Lift-top compartments keep items dry and out of sight
  • Reduces need for separate outdoor storage boxes
  • Holds pool supplies, sports equipment, or gardening gear
  • Weatherproof seals on lids protect contents from rain

Regular Bench Advantages

  • Lower cost makes them budget-friendly
  • Simpler design fits more decorative styles
  • Easier to move around the patio or garden
  • Less weight means one person can relocate it
