This is a very important question. Especially during a refurbishment, its important the floor strength is checked. We can supply engineered floor loading diagrams to show you what the point loads and rolling loads of our seating system will be.

100% yes! In 2015 we were having trouble finding stair nosing’s with integrated LED aisle lighting that were BCA compliant to AS 1428.1. This is what drove us to design and develop our own Maxwood branded LED aisle lighting products. Our lighting products are supported by several of Australia’s leading Access Consultants Australia for this very reason.

Yes, our theatre chairs are used in some of New Zealan & Australia’s top theatres and performing arts centres therefore require acoustic testing.

Yes, we encourage it. We have over 100 installations across Australia so there is a good chance we have one near you. Whilst it’s great to see a new install, we really encourage people to visit some of our older installations. We have seating systems over 25 years old still in perfect working order. That is really what you are paying for with our products, affordable life cycle costs that provide the best long-term return on investment. We don’t aim to be the cheapest, but we  are confident we offer the best value for money.
