Bar and Counter Stools
Bar stools are remarkably versatile pieces that adapt to modern living effortlessly. Tuck them neatly under your counter when not in use to maintain clear floor space, then pull them out when friends drop by, or family gathers. Their compact footprint makes them ideal for smaller homes where every centimetre counts, whilst their elevated height creates engaging, sociable seating that encourages conversation and connection.
Do It Yourself Bar Stool
Assembling your Boca Living bar stool is a satisfying and straightforward experience. Each stool arrives with clear, step-by-step instructions and all necessary hardware. You'll typically start by attaching the seat to the frame or leg assembly, followed by securing any footrests or support bars.
If your stool features a backrest, this connects last for stability. The flatpack design means components nest efficiently for transport, then slot together logically during assembly. Most customers complete a bar stool in 20-30 minutes with basic tools. The process is designed around Scandinavian simplicity – no complicated joints or confusing steps, just quality components that fit together beautifully.
How High Should a Bar Stool Be
The ideal bar stool height depends on your table or counter height. For standard bar tables (100-110cm tall), choose bar stools with seat heights of 75-80cm. For counter-height surfaces (90-95cm), opt for counter stools measuring 60-65cm.
The golden rule is maintaining 25-30cm clearance between the seat and the underside of your table or counter – this ensures comfortable legroom and easy movement. Measure your table height before purchasing, then select stools accordingly. Our product listings clearly state seat heights to simplify matching. If in doubt, slightly lower is better than too high, as comfort trumps aesthetics.
How to Assemble a Bar Stool?
Begin by unpacking all components and laying them out with the instruction manual. Identify each part using the diagrams provided. Typically, you'll have a seat, legs or frame, footrest, and fixings. Start by connecting the main leg structure, ensuring all screws are hand-tightened initially.
Attach the seat plate to the frame, working methodically through each fixing point. Install the footrest bar between legs for stability and comfort. If your stool has a backrest, secure this to the seat using the provided brackets. Once everything is positioned correctly, go back and fully tighten all fixings in sequence. Check stability before use. The entire process takes under 30 minutes.
