Carter Grandle understands that your porch, patio, deck or backyard are extensions of your home and
reflections of your personality and lifestyle. To this they offer a complement of custom features,
innovative designs, fabrics and accessories - all built to ensure an extraordinary level of comfort,
style, safety, and the quality you may relax in, both now, and for years to come.
Extruded aluminum is a very versatile, durable and strong product that will not rust through nature's
ever changing seasons. Many of Carter Grandle's extrusions are also proprietary and use internal
reinforcing ribs to provide the additional strength expected when purchasing a quality piece of outdoor
furniture. The aluminum thickness of .063" or greater is another important feature. You are
encouraged to lift any Carter Grandle frame and feel the difference in weight, signifying the quality
that will be there for you in years to come.
Their cast aluminum furniture designs are produced using only the purest, most resilient aluminum
alloys with each piece cast in either a die or permanent mold to ensure detail and allow for a
beautiful depth in design.
Although nuts, bolts and high dining swivel mechanisms may not sound very glamorous, they are an
integral part of their furniture's component system and very important when purchasing outdoor
furniture. Carter Grandle pays close attention to detail, fitting every glide and connection closely
with each frame to allow for better protection, even wear, and color coordination. Attachment hardware
is made of high quality stainless or aluminum that will not rust or corrode.
To ensure lasting color and beautiful textures, all Carter Grandle frame finishes are applied using
their environmentally friendly powder coating system. Each frame is chemically cleaned and pretreated
to ensure a "final bond" surface. Finely ground particles of pigment and resin are electrostatically
charged and sprayed onto the frame before being heated in oven temperatures exceeding 375 degrees
Fahrenheit. This process provides complete coverage and protection against corrosion while continuing
to enhance their casual furniture's fine finish.
Comfort, style and durability are not the only considerations when hand crafting a piece of Carter
Grandle furniture - your safety is also important - which is one of the reasons why they have developed
their own swivel tilt dining chair base. By building a base that is twenty four inches in diameter
rather than the standard twenty two, Carter Grandle provides peace of mind for consumers looking to buy
not only a beautiful piece of furniture, but also a reliable and safe product that swivels a full 360
degrees.
A variety of tables, tops and sizes are available through Carter Grandle and are a perfect complement
to all of their casual furniture groups. Patterned top tables that are exclusive to Carter Grandle
measure 3/16 inch thick and are manufactured with high quality, pure aluminum. The design features are
computer generated giving customers original, detailed cuts with the utmost precision and accuracy.
All glass used in conjunction with their dining and occasional pieces is specified to be safety
tempered and approximately seven times stronger than plate glass.
