Why More People Choose Custom Restaurant Furniture?

I have a load-bearing wall in my restaurant, and ready-made dining tables just don’t fit!” Boss Zhang, who just opened a hot pot restaurant, voiced a common frustration. As the global restaurant furniture market is expected to exceed $102.9 billion by 2028, personalized demand is driving customization to become mainstream—whether it’s space adaptation for small family dining rooms or theme creation for internet-famous restaurants, customization solves problems precisely. But not all furniture can be customized freely; there’s a lot to learn here.

These Restaurant Furnishings Offer the Highest Customization Freedom!

1. Booth Sofas: Scene Adaptation Champions
   The curved booths in internet-famous Japanese restaurants and U-shaped sofas in hot pot restaurants are all realized through customization. Manufacturers can replicate designs 1:1 from renderings, and even without blueprints, showroom samples can be resized or reupholstered. A skewer restaurant owner once printed the brand logo on leather booths, turning them into customer check-in spots.
   
   Customization Dimensions:Size(down to the centimeter), fabric (cloth/leather/themed printing), material (solid wood frame/full upholstery)

2. Dining Tables: Material Defines Customization BoundariesDining table customization focuses more on material selection than creative shapes, with different materials suiting vastly different scenarios:

3. Dining Chairs & Others: Balance Between Flexibility and Cost

Solid wood chairs can be reupholstered (e.g., ash wood frames with linen), but changing shapes requires new molds, drastically increasing costs. Iron and stainless steel chairs, however, are affordable and durable—ideal for fast-food brands. Additionally, sideboards, cash registers, and room dividers can be customized. A private dining restaurant even turned a sideboard into a built-in unit, saving 3 square meters of operational space.

Customization Q&A: Tips from Veterans

Q1: How long does customization take? Will it delay the schedule?

A: Solid wood furniture takes 30-60 days, while panel furniture takes 15-20 days. Choose manufacturers that provide production videos and confirm delivery times in writing to avoid unfulfilled verbal promises.

Q2: How to avoid installation issues?

A: Installation is the key to “70% of craftsmanship”! Monitor these 3 points: ① Ensure senior craftsmen (not apprentices) handle the work; ② Sealant application must be smooth (like “furniture makeup”); ③ Confirm any changes in writing to prevent mishaps like blocked sockets.

Q3: Is low-cost customization reliable?

A: Beware of “low-price traps”! Dining chairs made of inferior wood crack in six months, while reputable manufacturers clearly mark high-quality wood like ash or beech. Remember: You get what you pay for, but big brands may add 50% brand premium.

3 Must-Dos Before Customization

1.Bring floor plans + on-site photos to manufacturers, marking beams, columns, and sockets clearly

2.Clarify core needs: space-saving? style-matching? or storage?

3.Request samples: fabric swatches, wood samples, to avoid discrepancies with expectations
