Seat Height Guidelines
IMPORTANT! Make sure you have accurately measured the intended counter top where your bar stool, counter stool, kitchen chair or dining room chair will be used and be sure to leave adequate clearance: The rule of thumb: leave 11 between the top of the seat and the top of the counter. Also, seat heights are measured from the floor to the top of the seat NOT to the top of the seat back. Seat heights: Typical dining room & kitchen chairs are 18 to 19 & go with 28 to 30 high tables. You need 24 counter stools for most kitchen counters, usually 36to 39. You need 30 standard bar stools for 40 to 43 counters. Extra tall 34 to 36 extra tall stools are only for special use. |
