Choosing the Right Dining Chair Guide

Choosing Dining Chairs

Keep in mind that your table type will affect how your dining chairs will fit. Pedestal tables and trestle tables will allow more room than leg tables since chairs have to fit between the table legs.

The average dining chair is 16”- 20” wide. Measure dining chairs at their widest point, and add 6” to ensure there is enough room between chairs for people to move comfortably. Depending on the style of the chair, the widest point may be on the seat or chair back.
Try to allow for 12 inches between the chair seat height and the table top, no matter the table height, to ensure everyone has enough room to sit comfortably.
Leave seven inches between the chair arm height and the table apron (bottom edge of the table).

Chair Heights

Chairs can be built in three heights: Standard, counter, and bar or gathering height.

Standard height chairs are 18”- 23” tall and are available in a wide variety of designs.

Less formal than standard chairs, counter height chairs are 24” – 26” tall. Their added height creates the illusion of taking up less space.

The Livingston Contemporary Bar Stool is available in counter or bar height.

Bar/gathering height chairs are 28”- 30” tall. They are ultra-cool and casual and fit well in smaller spaces.

The Amish Harris Bar Stool can be built in counter or bar height.

Side and Arm Chairs

Arms add about 6” to the overall width of a dining chair. If space is limited, consider using armless dining chairs, or only use arm chairs at the head and foot of the table.

Side chairs take up less space visually and physically.
Arm chairs are often used at the head and foot of the table. They offer added comfort with a place to rest the arms.

With the help our sizing guide, find the right solid wood dining set that will be the perfect fit for dinner and special occasions.

Just a note to let you know the bed arrived. It's terrific; very well made. Many thanks. And we want you to know that Gary did a wonderful job of getting the bed to us. He was right on time, in fact a bit early, and kept us informed along the way. I'm sure it was not an easy trip. He is to be commended. Our compliments to him and his helper Jason.
