Cambria Teak Outdoor Folding Chair

Details at a Glance

FSC-certified Grade-A teak contains the highest natural oil content of any teak grade, which means the wood repels water, resists rot, and holds up against insects without chemical treatment. The HiTeak Cambria teak outdoor folding dining chair with an 18.25-inch seat and marine-grade hardware is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. It folds to approximately 4 inches thick, and the 316-grade stainless steel hinges resist corrosion in coastal environments.

Will Grade-A Teak Hold Up to Rain and Direct Sun?

Yes -- Grade-A teak's natural oils form a water-repellent barrier that prevents moisture penetration, so the wood won't rot or swell when rain soaks it. UV exposure gradually weathers the surface to a silvery-grey patina, but the structural integrity stays intact because teak's dense grain doesn't break down under sun. Marine-grade 316 stainless steel hardware resists salt air and humidity without rust, so the folding mechanism stays smooth season after season.

Does Teak Need to Be Oiled, or Will It Turn Grey?

Teak will turn grey as it weathers outdoors, and you don't need to oil it to protect the wood -- the natural oils inside the grain do that work. If you prefer the original honey tone, apply teak oil or sealer every few months to slow the silvering. If you let it grey and later want the color back, sand lightly and the warm tone returns. Either way, the wood performs the same.

How Do You Store a Folding Chair Over Winter?

This chair folds to 4 inches thick, so you can slide it into a closet, under a bed, or behind furniture without covers or climate control -- teak handles freezing temps and damp storage spaces without damage. If you leave it outside all winter, the wood and hardware will be fine, though hinges stay smoother if you fold and unfold once mid-season to keep them moving. No need to wrap it or bring it in unless storage space is easy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this stay outside all year?

Yes -- Grade-A teak and marine-grade stainless steel hardware are built for year-round outdoor exposure, including rain, snow, and salt air.

Will the teak finish fade in direct sun?

The surface weathers to silvery-grey over time in direct sun, but the wood's strength and rot resistance stay intact -- fading is cosmetic, not structural.

What makes this chair commercial grade?

Commercial grade means reinforced joinery, a 250-pound weight capacity, and marine-grade hardware proven to handle daily public use on restaurant patios and hotel pool decks.

How wide is the seat compared to standard folding chairs?

The seat measures 18.25 inches wide, which is significantly wider than narrow camp-style folding chairs and matches the comfort of fixed outdoor dining chairs.

Do you need cushions for a teak dining chair?

No -- the contoured teak slats provide comfortable support without cushions, and the slat design drains water and circulates air.

Does LOOMLAN Outdoor offer free shipping on this chair?

Yes -- free curbside delivery to the continental USA, no minimum order.
