Custom Sauna Benches

Custom Sauna Benches

Commercial quality meets elegance with our Stout Sauna Benches available in clear Red Cedar or clear white Basswood. For most sauna designs, wall mounted benches are on rails and easily remove for cleaning or adjustment. Bench Skirting (or Valance) is a popular add-on option for custom saunas. Portable sauna benches are great for guest seating as well as many other uses other than sauna. You can customize the perfect bench layout for your sauna, with our Custom Sauna Planner. We manufacture elegant, commercial strength sauna benches that will last a lifetime. Our quality benches are soft and cool to the touch without knots or exposed fasteners to cause discomfort. Rubber foot pads are used any time a bench support comes in contact with the floor, to prevent moisture wicking into wood fibers. Several sizes of portable benches are also available, or we can custom-build to your specifications. Call 877-872-2806 or Contact Us for more information or to order your custom Stout Benches. To see the quality sauna lumber we used to build our Stout Benches, order a Free Sample Pack. We recommend the Paraffin Oil Treatment for daily used home saunas and high maintenance commercial saunas, as the oil treatment safely blocks perspiration from soaking into wood fibers.

Basswood Benches for White Aspen or Nordic Spruce Saunas

Sauna enthusiasts love our wall mounted stout benches, the strongest on the market. Our bench edges are fully rounded for maximum comfort. We select our bench boards specifically to be free of hot spots like knots or exposed fasteners, and are made with clear basswood for strength, a full 1 3/4" thick x 5 1/2" wide, and a clean look. Basswood benches stay lighter longer compared to cedar and are cool to the touch throughout the sauna temperature range.

In most cases, wall-mounted benches are easily removed for sauna cleaning, as only the rails are fastened to the wall. Chemical free and for clean up in any sauna, the best method to keep benches looking new and fresh is a bucket of water and a quick brushing where seated frequently after sauna or use Sauna Clean concentrated cleaner.

Optional Bench Skirting

Superior Sauna Bench Skirting

Sauna bench skirting is an option for any Basswood or Red Cedar wall mounted benches. Skirts are the vertical portion between the upper and lower benches, which give a more finished look to the bench layout. Built with high quality clear (no knots) select white Basswood or Western Red Cedar wood and corrosion resistant fasteners. Wood pieces on skirting match bench tops very well, with matching rounded edges and spacing. Bench skirting attaches with supplied mounting blocks that mount to the side walls and bottom of the upper bench. Typical skirting height is 16", to fit between most tiers of sauna benches.
