Our team will carefully pack and deliver your furniture directly from our shop to your church.  We will unload the furniture and begin assembly based on your pre-approved layout.  We will request final approval on the pew layout from the church prior to anchoring the pews to the floor. 

 

We use a concealed anchor system consisting of an expansion anchor secured into the concrete or wood floor.  The pew is then set over the threaded portion of the anchor and the pew is secured to the floor. The anchor holes are located on the inside of the support and are covered with a matching metal cover. If required, the pews can be unbolted from the floor and moved.

We can connect you with one of our many sales representatives located across the United States.  They can connect with you on the phone or come meet with you at your church.  Contact us to begin this process.
