Wall Mounted Murphy Chair | Space Saving Seating Solutions
Murphy chairs and wall-mounted seats fold down from the wall to create flexible, temporary seating in healthcare, office, and corridor environments. Ideal for healthcare, schools, and offices where square footage is limited. With no legs to block floor access and a slim 9-inch folded profile, these chairs offer a clean, modern way to improve functionality without clutter.
Space-Saving Seating That Folds Away
Wall mounted Murphy chairs are engineered to solve one of the most common challenges in today’s buildings: maximizing space. These fold-down wall seats, sometimes called murphy or jump chairs, are designed for hospitals, patient waiting rooms, and hallways where durable, space-saving seating is essential.
Each chair includes a 3" thick seat cushion and a 25" back cushion, offering comfort without taking up floor space. Designed to meet the demands of healthcare and commercial use, these chairs are made with durable materials that withstand daily use and frequent cleaning.
Benefits include:
- Only 9" from wall when folded
- 3" thick seat cushion and tall backrest
- Cantilevered seat with spring return
- Comfortable and compact for high-traffic zones
- Clean, modern appearance for professional interiors
Performance You Can Count On

Each unit includes Microban® protection in wood finishes and uses upholstery suitable for both standard and healthcare settings. Installation requires wall studs for proper load support, and a 10-year structural warranty ensures peace of mind in high-use areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Murphy chairs deliver a remarkable 60-70% space reduction compared to conventional seating arrangements. Traditional chairs typically consume 7-9 square feet each when accounting for the chair footprint plus necessary circulation space. Murphy chairs utilize only wall space when stowed and minimal floor space when deployed. This fundamental difference allows facilities to repurpose valuable floor area for other functions when seating isn't required.
Murphy chairs offer extensive customization possibilities:
- Commercial-grade fabrics spanning hundreds of colors and textures
- Frame finishes including various powder-coated steel options
- Dimensional flexibility from single seats to continuous installations
- Mounting systems compatible with diverse wall constructions
- Accessory options including armrests, writing surfaces, and power integration
These options ensure Murphy chairs seamlessly integrate with specific functional requirements and aesthetic objectives across different facility types.
Murphy chairs demand significantly less maintenance than conventional seating. Routine care typically includes:
- Quarterly inspection of mounting hardware and mechanisms
- Fabric cleaning according to manufacturer specifications
- Annual lubrication of moving components
- Fabric assessment and potential replacement every 5-7 years depending on use
Most manufacturers recommend professional annual inspection to ensure ongoing safety and optimal performance throughout the product lifecycle.
Murphy chairs represent a higher initial investment than conventional seating, but often deliver superior long-term value through:
- Extended operational lifespan (8-12 years versus 5-7 years for standard seating)
- Reduced replacement frequency due to protected storage when not in use
- Lower lifetime maintenance requirements and associated costs
- Space efficiency that can reduce overall real estate needs
Complete cost analysis should consider these long-term advantages alongside initial acquisition expenses to determine true return on investment.
