Lecture Theatre LT2 Seating

SIS Global Seating upholstered LT2 lecture theatre seat can be tailored to suit individual design requirements, both in terms of dimensions and finishes. The underside of the seat can be either upholstered, exposed polished or a veneered plywood panel. The same detail can also be reflected on the outside of the backrest.

A number of alternative finishes of writing shelves are also available, including laminated, veneered, linoleum and solid timber. A wide range of seat cover fabrics is available, including tweeds, vinyl, velour and leather. All fabrics and seat foams meet the appropriate fire regulations. The writing shelf width varies depending on the tier depth and rise per row of the lecture theatre. Please contact our design office for details.

The seat centres of the Model LT2 chair can be varied to suit site dimensions. Chairs can be spaced at a minimum of 450mm centres up to 610mm centres. The heights and lengths of the backrest can vary depending on the height of the lecture theatre tiered risers. Ideally, the top of the upholstered backrests will abut to the underside of the writing shelf creating a modesty panel effect for the seats in the row behind.
