Chairs and pews in the sanctuary

 

Chairs  from NewHolland, 

  • 48 (includes 20 for the choir) for the sanctuary and 2 double seated for use in the general seating or for the minister and liturgist
  •  Extra bolts of upholstery fabric can be purchased for pews, and the pew-man may be able to buy the fabric himself
  • Will have an open slot in the rear for two books, will not have a kneeler, may have a communion cup holder depending on costs
  • Are sturdy enough to support a person using the back to hold while standing up
  • have small pin connectors when chairs are arranged in a tight row
Chairs come in single, double and triple size.
Single chairs can be stacked 5 high. 
(These pics are a different, less strong, style)


Pews that are being refinished:
  • Two 9'
  • Two 10'
  • Six 12'
  • Four pews for the fellowship hall, 12' if possible, otherwise as long as able
It costs less to upholster the pews than to make pads (only one layer of fabric needed).  The Pew Man may be able to purchase the same fabric that we select for the chairs, otherwise the chair company can sell us bolts of the fabric.

Flooring

Brighten and lighten our sanctuary.   Our recommendations  for the main flooring and a strip of carpet down the middle aisle: Main flooring White marble Vinyl Luxury Tile by J&J flooring.  Click to enlarge.      Rayon carpet tiles that reflect some color in the windows Carpet on the middle aisle extending into the narthex:  Solid color, high quality material picking up a bright color from the windows like red, blue or green  NOTES: This flooring could be used from the narthex into the kitchen and fellowship hall.   That will give a calmness and easy transition.   Easy to clean. Easy to replace a tile if damaged.  Installers will have special tools to punch holes for bolting down the pews. Audio HoH cable will be placed under the tile (fabric or Vinyl).  The installers will put down a strip of tape, then the cable, then another strip of tape.  The tile will be laid after the HoH cable.   The flo...
