Installation
Sling furniture is built to withstand the elements, but over time its fabric may wear away or tear. Replacing the slings on patio chairs is an affordable way to restore them back into shape. Slings can be easily detached and replaced from patio chairs, making this a straightforward DIY project for most homeowners. Before replacing patio chair slings, however, it is important to ensure that both frames and slings are in good condition and in no need of repair. Before replacing slings, any broken bolts, rust or damage must first be repaired. Furthermore, replacement slings made specifically to fit each chair are highly recommended in order to ensure perfect fitting fabric that will outlive its lifespan for many more years. It is also essential that when selecting replacement slings their color be considered since sun exposure and general wear and tear of outdoor furniture may alter its hue over time.
Note that each sling is custom designed for its respective chair frame; no two chairs will have identical measurements for their sling installation process. Therefore, measurements must be taken carefully so as to ensure an appropriate fit; in addition, check to see that both frame and stabilizer bars are undamaged so installation won’t be compromised in any way.
Disassembling the entire frame of a chair is the ideal way to measure for slings, as this allows you to easily measure both its seat and back widths. To measure seat widths, place the measuring tape several inches away from where the sling rail attaches to the frame, and measure from side-to-side along it – be sure to round these measurements off to within 1/8″ when recording them.
Once your measurements have been taken, new slings can be ordered through your local patio furniture supplies company. They should arrive a few weeks later, ready for installation.
