Modern Balcony Furniture in Florida

Modern Balcony Furniture in Florida

There are lots of residents who use their apartments only a few months of the year as a vacation residence. Many times these clients try to minimize their costs of the balcony furniture and prefer lighter products for their prices. We recommend otherwise. If the balcony is high and large you have to choose the furniture thinking about winds. Winds can easily pick an item from the balcony and throw it out which is a huge liability. During hurricane seasons most buildings enforce removing of furniture from balconies however there are still many accidents that result from flying objects. Also even during regular seasons high winds can start without any notice. The best way to avoid problems is to choose heavier furniture for high balconies. These can be aluminum, cast aluminum, recycled plastic or wood furniture items. Unsecured glass tops on tables should be secured if possible since the wind can blow the glass over the table. Cushions must be secured if not removed. Lighter furniture items and objects should be moved indoors when not in use. It's not safe to use light plastic chairs and tables on these large balconies if wind is a problem. If price is an issue we have some more affordable collections that we offer to our clients. They are not really modern lines but they are transitional by design. Some of these balcony collections are Captain & Club from Polywood; Shorea & Travira from Oxford Garden; Florence & Origin from Caluco; Dangari collection from Evolutif. Our all time best selling balcony chairs are Tangor multi position chair from Evolutif which is heavy enough for balcony use.  Smaller balconies with no winds are a good fit for our Miami balcony furniture set with two chairs and a rectangle coffee table.

I'm fortunate enough to have balcony but not too large. My balcony is about 6 feet deep and 20 feet wide which makes it hard to furnish. The main problem is the depth. I have a 60 inch dining table with aluminum frames and wood top from Kore collection from Kettal. Table is heavy enough but when I level it to the railing I barely have enough space to seat four guests. If I center the table there is no space to go around. I'm sure many balcony owners in older buildings have the same problem. I should write about smaller balconies and how best to furnish them in one of my blogs. Let me gather some my thoughts together and we will have a separate article about smaller balconies.
