Porch Swings for the Deck or Garden - Rediscover the Tradition of a Wooden or Wicker Patio Swing

Create a new tradition with outdoor porch swings for the front or back yard. Take time to sit outside on a wooden garden swing or weatherproof wicker swing - or enjoy your coffee on the deck in a swinging adirondack chair and small side table.

Unfinished patio swings with low or high back designs can be built as a do it yourself project using easy to follow woodwork plans or assembled from kits. Use zinc coated hardware that is resistant to rust and corrosion and add rain proof vinyl, canvas or sunbrella cushions designed for extra comfort and durability.

Gliders are another type of furniture ideal for the lawn or garden. Order these rocking-bench style chairs hand crafted from decay resistant wood in prefinished cedar, pine or cherry.

A face to face glider is a unique variation of a traditional swing with a canopy that protects against harmful uv rays of the sun.

Choose wicker for nostalgic decor and rustic charm

Polypropylene swings have the comfort and look of natural wicker but are able to stand up to the rain, sun and cold of changing seasons. Hang from the veranda or mount them on a large tree. Swings come alone or in complete sets including cushions, mounting hardware and steel chains that can support over 400 lbs.

Traditional wooden swings for patios and yards

Treated wood provides a distinctive and durable piece of garden furniture that will last for years. The close grain of cypress resists warping making it ideal for use on the front or back porch and in the outdoors. Hang by a chain from an A-frame stand or from the porch.

Choose inviting porch swings made tough and durable from powdercoated steel. Designs include removable cushions in Teflon coating spun polyester fabric, a tilting sunshade covering and side trays to keep drinks and snacks in easy reach. Metal stands require some assembly and hold up to 400 pounds.

Double your pleasure with covered swings built for two

Canopy swings for the porch are meant to be shared with a special someone - a grandparent or friend or a young couple just getting to know each other. The wide variety of swings and plans available online provide casual decorating options for any backyard retreat.
