Whether you want to add a touch of whimsy to your living room or create a relaxing nook for yourself in the garden, hanging egg chairs are an easy way to do just that. They’re also extremely comfortable, bringing with them a feeling of lightness and allowing you to float gently in your chair.
Stylish Hanging Egg Chairs for Cozy Outdoor Spaces
When hanging your chair, the most important thing is to ensure it is safe. You should always follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions to make sure your chair is hung securely and can support its weight. To do this, you will need a sturdy ceiling mount and a chain or rope with a carabiner or hook at each end.
First, check that the support beam or ceiling from which you plan to hang your chair can safely support the weight of the chair and your body. If you’re using a support beam that is visible from the floor of your home, this will be simple. However, if you’re planning to hang your chair from a ceiling made of plasterboard, it is necessary to locate and mark a joist with a stud finder. You can then use this as a reference to drill a hole at the exact centre of the joist.
Next, screw in the eye hooks or ceiling hooks that you have prepared. Connect the chain or rope with the hooks or carabiners and then sit in the chair to test for stability. If your chair wobbles or tilts, make any required adjustments to the installation and try again until the chair hangs evenly and securely.
