Booth Seating is a manufacturer and distributor of seating for theaters, auditoriums and performing arts facilities, churches and synagogues, arenas, and home theaters. While stylish and comfortable, our theater chairs are built to withstand the intense use they often face in commercial settings. With dozens of chair models available, we are confident that you will find the perfect chair at a price you will like.    

Booth Seating is one of the oldest suppliers of fixed audience seating in North America. Since 1968, Booth Seating has provided fixed audience seating for theaters, auditoriums, arenas, churches, and home theaters. Our fixed audience chairs are top quality commercial grade products manufactured in an ISO 9001 facility and subjected to intense durability testing by Intertek.

Chair quantity doesn’t matter. Whether you need 10,000 chairs for a large auditorium or church or only a few chairs for a home theater or assisted living facility, your seating project will get the attention it needs and full support from start to finish. We can quote from a full specification or we can work more casually based on a verbal description of your needs. We’ve seen it all and done it all, and you can put our decades of experience to work for you.

Our seating projects have included large municipal and school auditoriums as well as individual home theaters and everything in between. We even have chairs installed on Coast Guard ships and oil rigs. Our theater seats are made for the client who needs solid reliability, unsurpassed comfort, and timeless design. For our commercial and municipal clients, you get a chair that is designed to withstand the sort of intense use seen in commercial high-use environments. Your patrons get a chair with ergonomic backs and seats carefully designed to provide maximum comfort through long performances. Your maintenance staff gets a chair that is proven through decades of use to require only minimal maintenance. And, everyone gets to enjoy a chair with a classic design that will look appropriate for your venue for decades to come.

Larger seating projects benefit greatly from having a seating plan produced by our in-house engineering team. We have written a Project Planning Guide to assist with understanding the various phases of design and manufacturing and how they will impact your project.  Architects and designers should consult with us early in the design phase so we can lend our expertise to help avoid many of the common mistakes when placing chairs and seating rows in an auditorium, theater, or other commercial space. But, whether your project is large or small, we can work with your digital floor plan (Autocad DWG format) to produce a seating plan for your project to ensure that your chairs are placed properly in your room and adequate spacing is provided around the chairs. Our seating plan will include all the information you need on your seating rows and their placement to ensure a smooth installation.

We were the first company in the US to offer real commercial theater seats for use in home theaters. Everyone else is following in the path we blazed in the early 1990s. Looking to achieve a real theater look for your home theater or media room seating? Then, the only choice is to use real authentic movie seats in your home theater. Now your home theater is complete!

And, unlike the typical loungers you see on every home theater web site, our real commercial theater chairs are created with the movie watching experience in mind. Our home theater recliners are designed to provide head and neck support as well as lumbar support so you remain comfortable and in an ideal viewing position through the longest feature films. And, you don’t sacrifice design or good looks to achieve this.  Regardless of your home theater decor, we have a home theater seat to match.

Unlike most home theater loungers which are built to lower residential furniture standards, our home theater chairs are built to withstand the harsh treatment that is typical for commercial environments. Imagine how long a home theater seat designed for commercial durability would last in your home environment! In short, you get a home theater recliner that is reliable, comfortable, and good-looking. Don’t forget to visit our Home Theater FAQ for more info on choosing, installing, and getting your best buy on the right theater seat for your home theater. Each home theater order includes detailed installation instructions with images along with the proper mounting hardware for your floor type. With our instructions, you will know exactly how to install your seating rows.

Regardless of your seating application, we offer a variety of fabric choices from durable and colorful woven fabrics, to cost efficient synthetic leathers, to real top grain leather. We can also work with your specified fabric or a fabric that you supply. And, our theater chair offerings are nearly as varied as our fabric offerings. You can choose from a variety of fixed-back chairs such as our very popular and budget-minded Convention chair or our high-back Alessandria LS with the popular lift-up armrest. Our theater rockers include the very modern Capri Rocker and the classic Alessandria and Vesubio Rockers among others. Our Plus chairs are the perfect choice when you want to make a statement with a unique, plush, and gorgeous VIP theater chair. Many chair models feature our unique lift-up arms that allow you to turn your row of chairs into a loveseat. Typical add-ons include cup holders, elbow pads, folding and swivel tables, and top grain leather upholstery for your home theater seat. While most commercial clients choose our durable and easy-to-clean woven fabrics, many of our residential clients enjoy the luxury of leather theater seating. The choice is yours!
