Creating an inviting outdoor space is about more than just decoration — it’s about building comfort, connection, and longevity. Whether you’re furnishing a public park, a school courtyard, or a restaurant patio, the right metal picnic tables and outdoor metal benches make all the difference.
At Outtans, we design furniture that’s made to withstand the elements, heavy use, and the test of time. Our heavy duty picnic tables and commercial picnic tables combine industrial-grade steel with modern design, ensuring your outdoor spaces remain as durable as they are welcoming.
Why Metal Picnic Tables Are the Smartest Long-Term Investment
When it comes to outdoor furniture, the material you choose determines how long it lasts. Wood can rot or warp, and plastic might crack or fade — but metal endures.
Here’s why metal picnic tables and outdoor metal benches outperform the rest:
-
Built for strength: Outtans furniture uses thick-gauge steel frames engineered for decades of use.
-
Weatherproof coatings: Our thermoplastic and powder-coated finishes resist rust, fading, and corrosion even in harsh climates.
-
Low maintenance: A quick rinse with water and mild soap keeps your furniture looking new — no sanding or sealing required.
-
Eco-conscious choice: Because metal lasts longer, it reduces waste and replacement costs over time.
That’s why cities, schools, and commercial properties trust Outtans metal picnic tables to handle daily use while maintaining their appearance year after year.
Choosing the Right Table Shape and Size
Different spaces call for different table configurations. Outtans offers a range of commercial picnic tables to suit every setting:
-
Round Picnic Tables – Encourage conversation and social interaction. Perfect for schools, community areas, or family backyards.
-
Square Picnic Tables – Provide symmetry and fit neatly into compact layouts.
-
Rectangular Picnic Tables – Our most versatile design, available in 4-ft and 6-ft sizes, ideal for large gatherings and group seating.
Pair your table with an outdoor metal bench for cohesive, durable seating. Choose benches with backrests for comfort or backless benches for space-efficient layouts.
Accessibility and Comfort: Built for Everyone
Outdoor furniture should be inclusive — and our ADA-compliant picnic tables make that easy. Outtans designs allow you to replace a bench with a straight-leg section, creating a 30” wheelchair clearance without compromising aesthetics or stability.
This flexibility makes our furniture ideal for schools, parks, and restaurants that value accessibility and compliance as much as comfort.
Expanded Metal vs. Punched Metal — Which Surface Is Best?
Outtans offers two distinct tabletop and bench surface styles across our metal picnic tables and outdoor benches:
-
Expanded Metal: A strong, textured steel mesh that lets rain and debris pass through easily. Perfect for high-traffic areas like playgrounds or parks.
-
Punched Metal: Smooth steel sheets with precision-cut holes for a refined, modern appearance. Ideal for dining patios or commercial spaces that want easy cleaning and contemporary design.

Designed for Durability and Stability
Every heavy duty picnic table and outdoor metal bench from Outtans is made for real-world conditions:
-
Powder-coated frames prevent rust and wear.
-
Thermoplastic coatings resist UV rays and corrosion.
-
Reinforced welds and anchor-ready bases keep furniture secure and steady.
We stand behind every product with a 3-year commercial warranty, but most Outtans furniture lasts for decades with minimal upkeep — making it a top choice for municipalities, schools, and businesses that demand quality.
Leg Styles That Fit Any Installation
Different environments require different mounting options, and Outtans provides them all:
-
Portable Legs – Easily movable for flexible layouts.
-
Surface Mount Legs – Bolt directly into concrete or hard surfaces for a permanent setup.
-
Inground Legs – Perfect for dirt or grass areas, providing maximum stability in parks or outdoor recreation zones.
These versatile designs make Outtans’ commercial picnic tables adaptable to virtually any environment.

One of the biggest advantages of metal furniture is how easy it is to maintain. Here’s all it takes to keep your metal picnic tables and outdoor benches in top shape:
-
Rinse with water to remove dust and debris.

Wipe with a mild soap solution.
