When building chairs with seat widths greater than 22", we double weave the strapping and use two or more cylinders (see above photos) to better accommodate the weight in the chair for easy tilting and reclining. The increased seat width does not limit positioning capabilities.

The weight capacity of all Broda chairs is a function of the casters. The 5" casters can each hold up to 220 lbs, and the 6" casters can hold up to 330 lbs. The total weight capacity is usually based on three casters in case of uneven terrain.

Depending on the customization, other modifications can be done to the chairs, such as changes to the padding, legrest, and footrest lengths and widths.

Customization often involves several modifications to the frame of a chair as well as the  padding. This means there may be additional costs and increased lead times for production.

For other custom dimensions and chair modifications, see our Custom Seating Page.
