Know before you buy
The 4' swing is designed to support approximately 400 pounds, while the 5' swing has a weight capacity of 500 pounds.
The swing includes the necessary zinc-plated hardware and yellow zinc chains for rust resistance. While the standard chain length is 7 feet, you may need to request adjustments if your ceiling height differs from the standard 9-foot height.
Because this swing is crafted from natural hickory, it is best to keep it in a covered porch area to protect it from direct exposure to the elements. Regularly cleaning the wood with a soft, damp cloth and applying a wood-safe outdoor sealant periodically will help preserve the finish.
Yes, you have the option to select either the standard yellow zinc chains or a rope kit depending on your aesthetic preference and mounting requirements.
Some assembly is required upon delivery. The design features a clean look with no visible screws in the backs or arms, which may require careful alignment during the setup process.
Cushions and pillows are optional add-ons and are not included with the base swing. Please note that if you choose to purchase them, they will ship separately from the swing itself.
