This congregation wanted both a new look and new functionality when they came to Artech. We first removed
all the existing upholstery on the pews. Then we refinished all the pews. The congregation
wanted more flexibility in the rear of the sanctuary so in the last 5 rows of pews we cut the long pews
in half and added an extended base shoe to make them free standing. The shorter length and base shoe
kept the pews sturdy enough for regular use but light enough to move at will. We finished by reupholstering
all the pews with a 3" seat cushion and 1" back cushion.
All of this was done on-site without any interruption of services.
