Why Carroll Seating Company is Widely Reputed



When Carroll Seating Company first began it was literally a basement operation: in 1952, Patrick Carroll, Sr., began to sell church pews from his basement. As the populous grew to admire his service, his business branched out to private schools. Subsequently, his furniture eventually diffused to public schools in the surrounding area.

However, eventually a basement was too small to accommodate the amount of work requests Mr. Carroll was fulfilling. Finally, he purchased an office in Chicago, Illinois on Hermitage Ave, and the business ran out of this office for a whopping fifty-one years. While the business was still growing strong, Patrick Carroll, Sr. passed away in 1975. Several years after his passing while under the leadership of another salesman his son, Patrick Carroll Jr., stepped up as President in 1997 and the headquarters were moved to Elk Grove, Illinois.


However, the business did and still does remain a multi-city operation, as the office in Elk Grove was retained and is still utilized. Michael Carroll brought the company’s legacy over to Kansas City, Missouri. With such a large presence on the symbolic landscape, the company rapidly gained more and more trust and reputation as more and more positive transactions went on through the years.


Now, there is no doubt about the reputation of Carroll Seating Company, seeing as it has served over 1500 organizations in five states: Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa. Additionally, Carroll Seating Company is currently a conglomerate of many specialized, institutional furnishing lines for many purposes that serve the public good. The company successfully manages over $29 million in sales every year.


Due to such an illustrious history, Carroll Seating Company is indeed a trusted furnishing and installation company. The company has proven itself competent in multiple fields, as it has many successful lines such as Hussey Seating Company, Debourgh Manufacturering, Case Syemts James Town Metal Products, Performance Sports Systems, and many more contained within it.


As it has acquired more and more capital in the years, the company has invested wisely in more workers in widely varying fields to guarantee the best service possible such as in house estimators, project managers, administrative staff and a full facility service and repair team.


Family owned since it’s very founding, and it has gradually established permanent roots over the decades.


All of this goes to show the undying dedication the Carroll Seating Company has for consumer satisfaction. Whether it is a single chair, or a remodeling of an entire institution, Carroll Seating Company not only desires to help every customer to the fullest extent possible, but has also put out the capital to ensure that every consumer can be helped to the largest extent possible. Through such dedication very naturally comes trust from both returning and new clients.

Avoid Healthcare Setting Inspection Violations with Proper Seating



Caregivers, and those who assist and support the caregivers in hospitals and healthcare institutions (facilities departments and engineering departments), are under constant pressure from regulators to create the optimum safe environment for both patient and staff.  A facility’s choice in seating is no different, and believe it or not, a healthcare facility might easily get cited for choosing the wrong seating.  This was the topic of an actual conversation a member of our sales team had with a long-time client who is a director of a major medical center in the Chicagoland area.
portable seating   Carroll Seating Company
Healthcare inspectors are concerned with clutter in hospital hallways and other areas that must be kept accessible to fire alarms, medical gas alarms, emergency shut-off valves, and patient hook-ups in case of emergency and for the safety of caregivers and patients. 


Violations by the accrediting agency (like The Joint Commission, for instance) or the AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) [a state or local department of health]) can be issued for one small oversight, often because NFPA and the “Environment of Care” (in the case of TJC) can be interpreted differently. 


There has been a focus on reducing obstacles to these critical areas of care in healthcare institutions.  A major concern is chairs used by hospital staff. Our line of Clarin by Hussey fixed seating offers a great solution to this regulation. Anchored to the floor, our nurse’s station, will not interfere with those critical areas, or other staff performing their duties.


Is it comfortable?
ABSOLUTELY!  Clarin offers a variety of seats, backs, adjustable swivels to make it even more comfortable than any standard office chair you may purchase.  It comes in a variety of colors, and will accommodate almost any individual’s size. 


Is it durable?
You bet.  Clarin has one of the most extensive warranties in the industry with 12 years on structural components and 5 years on moving components. 


Is it versatile?
Of course!  You can design your chairs any way you like by picking the way it’s anchored, how much mobility you require, the colors and types of surfaces you prefer.  There are endless varieties of plastic, upholstery, and fabric options to integrate fully in to your space, while still maintaining a high morale among staff for its comfort and versatility.


Is it expensive?
The longevity and durability of this seating will outlast a typical desk chair.  They are built for 24/7 use, and once installed, you won’t have to worry about it again.  However, if there’s some change or adjustment you like, Carroll Seating Company will always be there to service you.  That’s part of the trick of being in business for 63 years.

Library Furniture Can Give Your Library New Life



No One Likes Old Furniture  
An older library may have furniture from the time when it was first built.  Over time, chairs become ratty, tables become rickety, and chairs grow uncomfortable.  It may also be that the library has grown and now these old pieces simply aren’t enough to accommodate for the current amount of traffic that comes and goes throughout the library during the day.  There are a lot of different things that might happen to your library over the years to merit new furniture.   
Library Seating, Carroll Seating


Perhaps your library is being renovated, or you just received a grant that allows you to update your library in every capacity.  Libraries are the perfect places for people to relax, read, study, and discuss things (quietly, of course).  Isn’t it time that the library was made better for everybody?  


Beautiful Choices  
Library furniture has a wide range which allows you to get almost anything you like.  Even better?  Though you may primarily be in need of chairs and tables, you may also want to stop and consider new shelving units as well as library desks for librarians to work at.  There are all sorts of fantastic pieces that can work wonders in your library not just in comfort but in style and functionality as well!   


The right additions to your library can really transform it as well.  Your library may go from being the place people simply check out books and leave to the place where students want to hang out and study after school.  Chic designs that allow them to collaborate can put their minds at ease and really invite them in.  Furniture can also entice people to stay longer and enjoy all that the library has to offer.  Improved bookcases might give you the additional space you need to add in more books, something that every library can use!  


Help With Your Furniture  
When you contact Carroll Seating Company, you aren’t just calling someone to get furniture.  We will help you through every step of the way, from choosing the right library furniture for your space to installing it in the best locations to helping you with financing.  We want your library to look just as fantastic as you hoped and will do everything to make that dream a reality.  There are plenty of options to choose from, so be sure to take your time when you peruse the catalog.  We’ve been there for libraries for the last six decades – we’d love to work with you on yours.

What a Quality Seating Company Can Do for You



High Quality Seating and More  
Seating can be very important, just as other components can make a huge difference in how you view your workplace.  Everything from casework in a medical setting to bleachers in a school can all transform those places from dull and everyday to strong and vibrant.  Renovating an area to include brand new seating means finding comfortable and stylish seats.  In any case, when you can customize what the seats, bleachers, and much more look like, then you are on the right track.   
bleacher seating, Carroll Seating
A seating company should be able to do all these things for you and still provide you with even more.  Choosing the right seating company can make all the difference in the world when it comes to choosing, ordering, installing, and affording the things you need for your location.  Knowledgeable staff that can provide you with the information you need as well as give you additional ideas are a key component to getting things done right the first time.  Take some time to do your research on seating companies and find out what they are capable of, what they can offer you, and how long they have been in business.  The longer they have been doing what they do and the more distinguished their client list is, the more confident you can be about choosing them for the job.   


Additional Help  
A seating company shouldn’t just be about seats, and nor should it just be about providing you with them.  A high quality seating company brings in a staff that knows the business inside and out.  It will seek out relations and partnerships with other providers as well as financial institutions in order to help you get your projects off the ground should you need assistance.  There is a process involved when it comes to installing seating, bleachers, casework, and other large furnishings into any area.  Working with staff can help you decide which pieces would work best in a space, and if you have any customization ideas that shouldn’t be a problem either.   


All these connections with providers and institutions can give you an edge that you may not have had otherwise.  This sort of help can really make the difference on whether or not you are finally able to put in telescopic bleachers into your gymnasium or brand new tables in your library.
