Teakwood Bars

Teak bars are beautiful alternatives to nay other type of wooden bars.

If you are considering installing a bar in your home or business, then consider teakwood bars. Teak bars are beautiful alternatives to nay other type of wooden bars. They are the hardest wood on the market, making them the most durable. Teak is also very water resistant, which is why it has been used in shipbuilding for centuries.

Other hardwoods such as oak can stain and absorb water, which can destroy any furniture. When water seeps into cracks in the wood, the water is absorbed causing the wood to warp, crack, and peel. The furniture will either have to be repaired if that is possible, however in most instanced the furniture is ruined and will have to be replaced. This can be a very costly endeavor. Teak on the other hand is water resistant, making it perfect for tables, bars, and even boat decking.

Saving Money with Teak:

Most people will laugh when you mention saving money by installing teak bars. However, because of its durability and high water resistance this is precisely what you will be doing if you install real teak bars instead of another type of hardwood. If you're building or purchasing a bar, you want one that will withstand abuse and be water-repellent, as well as look nice. Teak wood will do precisely that. During the 1700’s the British Navy used Teak to build their warships for two reasons: first it was resistant to insects, rot and water and second, the wood was so durable that it would not splinter when hit with artillery fire. Your bar will never have to deal with artillery fire; however, it will have to withstand countless people, leaning, hitting, kicking, and spilling drinks all over it.

The first restaurant my Aunt and Uncle owned had teakwood bars. During an electric storm, lightening struck the restaurant and burned it. The damage was so intense that the place had to be torn down. The only items that were salvageable were the teakwood bars. With a little sanding, they were restored to their beauty. Thirty years later, the restaurant has changed owners, but the Teakwood bars are still there. Teakwood is so durable it is the perfect choice for the busy bar crowd. Teak bars can endure nearly any human abuse that comes their way.
