When choosing your garden table, you should always consider the space available. You should measure your balcony, patio or garden beforehand to determine the optimal size of your garden table. Remember that in addition to the table, seating also needs sufficient space and freedom of movement should be guaranteed. To help you choose the right size, here are some recommended dimensions for garden tables that will also serve as outdoor dining tables:
- Height: The standard height of garden tables is usually between 70 and 75 centimetres. This height allows you to sit and eat comfortably in the fresh air. It is important that the chairs match the table height.
- Width: How wide your garden table should be depends on the number of people who will be sitting at it. A rectangular table for four people is usually between 90 and 120 centimetres wide, a table for six people between 150 and 180 centimetres. Round tables with a diameter of 120 to 150 centimetres can usually seat four to six people.
- Length: The length of the table also plays an important role. This is especially true for elongated shapes such as rectangular or oval tables. A rectangular table for four people should be around 120 to 150 centimetres long, while a table for six people is usually 180 to 220 centimetres long. The dimensions are similar for oval tables.
