Bench Mounting Examples
Surface Mount / Direct Burial Our benches come with two mounting/installation choices, surface mount or direct burial.
- Surface Mounting is the simplest of the two, and rests directly on the surface. You may use four expansion bolts to secure the legs of the bench directly onto the concrete surface.
- Direct Burial installs the bench in a 2' diameter by 2'6" deep concrete foundation. While not as easy to install, this style of mounting is much more sturdy and clean. See picture.
