How Much Assembly is Really Required?


Do you dread when furniture requires assembly, thinking you will receive instructions that you can’t understand and will take you hours to build? Luckily for you, Astra Street Furniture pieces are the complete opposite!

The majority of our furniture requires assembly by simply bolting the seat, bench or table pan on to the legs. The assembly that is required for this consists of 4-6 bolts and takes approximately 5-10 minutes per piece of furniture! How easy is that!

Some of our other street furniture does take a little more effort, but nothing you couldn’t handle. The Woodville and Milan suites require each slat to be bolted to the seat, bench or table frame but all the holes are pre-drilled, and the fixings are supplied. These typically take approximately 10-20 minutes per piece of furniture to assemble.

In terms of our Athens Wheelie Bin Enclosures, they also arrive unassembled, however, they have fitted nutserts and supplied fixings to make the job easy! A single Athens bin typically takes 15-20 minutes to assembly.

There is another plus to the Paris, London and Prague bins as they do not require any assembly at all – they come pre-assembled for your convenience!

You may be wondering why the street furniture does require minimal assembly? This is largely due to the fact that they are easier to freight, less likely to get damaged in transit and will be more cost effective to transport!

Do not stress! We supply assembly guides with our Street Furniture which are emailed to you straight away once your order has been dispatched! Feel free to also create an online login and download the assembly guides for yourself at any time!
