Placing urban outdoor furniture on a wooden deck requires specific considerations to protect the deck's surface and ensure longevity. First, always use protective pads or cups under furniture legs. This prevents scratches, gouges, and moisture traps that can lead to rot and mildew. Avoid placing heavy, concentrated loads on a single deck board to prevent structural stress. For seating areas, ensure furniture is stable and won't easily tip, considering the deck's raised nature. Choose materials wisely; lightweight aluminum or synthetic wicker are excellent as they are easy to move and less abrasive. Avoid furniture with sharp, unfinished metal feet. Furthermore, ensure proper drainage by not blocking the deck's drainage gaps. Regularly move furniture to allow the deck to breathe and dry evenly, preventing discoloration. Finally, consider the furniture's footprint—allow ample space for traffic flow to maintain both safety and the deck's aesthetic appeal.
