When furnishing a shared urban courtyard, a common concern is whether the furniture is heavy enough to resist strong winds. The answer depends on several factors beyond just weight. First, consider the material. Concrete, stone, and thick, powder-coated steel are inherently heavy and stable. Second, evaluate the design. Furniture with a low center of gravity, wide bases, and slatted designs that allow wind to pass through performs better than tall, solid-sided pieces. For lightweight materials like aluminum or resin wicker, check for options with built-in weight compartments or ones designed to be anchored. In very windy locations, proactive anchoring is crucial. Use ground anchors, tie-down kits, or simply secure pieces to heavy, weighted planters. Regular maintenance to tighten joints also prevents wobbling that wind can exploit. Ultimately, selecting purpose-built, wind-resistant furniture and using simple securing methods will ensure your shared courtyard remains stylish and intact, no matter the weather.
