Timeless Design & Quality Craftsmanship

Handcrafted for Strength and Beauty

Each bench is precision-built using seasoned, high-quality timber that’s carefully selected to be free from knots, shakes, and other imperfections. Every component is hand and machine-shaped to ensure accuracy, comfort, and strength.

You can choose between:

• Flat or rolled arms for traditional styling

• Flat or arched backrests for classic or contemporary appeal

These benches not only provide a comfortable seating solution but also serve as a beautiful feature piece for public and private landscapes.

Premium Timber Selection

All timber street furniture from Speedy Street Solutions is available in hardwood or softwood, allowing you to choose the right balance of longevity, appearance, and budget.

Hardwood vs Softwood

• Hardwood (Iroko or Oak) – Denser, heavier, and highly durable. Requires less maintenance and lasts for decades.

• Softwood (Cedar) – Lightweight, aromatic, and cost-effective. Perfect for budget-conscious projects and can be stained for enhanced weather resistance.

If your budget allows, hardwood is the superior choice due to its exceptional durability and low maintenance requirements. Softwood options should be treated annually with Sadolin wood stain to maintain their protective finish.

Timber Options

• Iroko – A distinctive hardwood with a golden-brown tone that deepens with age. Known for its high resistance to decay.

• Oak – A classic hardwood with an attractive light-brown colour that naturally darkens over time.

• Cedar – A softwood with a warm reddish-brown hue and pleasant aroma that gracefully weathers to silver-grey.

These timber varieties are carefully graded for strength and sustainability, ensuring every bench is both beautiful and built to last.
