Which bench does a 100x40 cm bench cushion fit?
A bench cushion 100x40 cm fits particularly well on short benches with a classic seat depth. This size is often used for small garden benches, balcony benches, hallway benches, benches in entrance areas, compact kitchen benches or small dining benches.
The 40 cm depth offers more support surface than very narrow bench cushions and therefore feels more comfortable. At the same time, the 100 cm length remains compact enough for smaller benches, narrow niches or limited spaces.
Bench cushion, bench pad, bench seat cushion or garden bench cushion 100x40 cm?
Whether you are looking for a bench cushion 100x40 cm, a bench pad 100x40 cm, a bench seat cushion 100x40 cm, a seat cushion 100x40 cm, a padded cushion 100x40 cm or a garden bench cushion 100x40 cm: this usually means a padded cushion for a bench with a width of 100 cm and a depth of 40 cm.
If your seating surface measures exactly 100 × 40 cm, you can choose this format directly. If your bench is narrower, the bench cushion 100x35 cm may fit better. For wider benches, the bench cushion 120x40 cm or the bench cushion 140x40 cm are also popular alternatives.
Which cushion thickness is suitable for 100x40 cm?
For bench cushions in 100 × 40 cm, Lekoni® offers the cushion thicknesses 4 cm, 6 cm and 8 cm.
- 4 cm: the proven standard thickness for most bench cushions – ideal for garden benches, hallway benches, balcony benches, kitchen benches, entrance areas and normal everyday use.
- 6 cm: noticeably more comfortable and more voluminous – useful if the bench is very hard or if more seating comfort is desired.
- 8 cm: very thick padding for lounge areas, garden benches, deep seating surfaces and particularly comfortable seats.
Recommendation: For most bench cushions in 100 × 40 cm, 4 cm is a very good choice. If you want the cushion to be especially comfortable and visibly more padded, choose 6 cm. 8 cm is particularly suitable for lounge-style seating areas or very comfortable garden bench cushions.
Materials for your bench cushion 100x40 cm
The bench cushion 100x40 cm is available from Lekoni® in various materials. This allows you to choose the seat cushion according to the place of use, the desired look and the required care properties.
- Panama: homely fabric for dining rooms, kitchens, hallways, children’s rooms, window seats and protected outdoor areas in dry weather.
- Mali: robust, breathable fabric for heavily used seating areas, living areas, hospitality, hotels and covered outdoor areas.
- Faux leather: easy-care standard option with a surface that can be wiped clean with a damp cloth, ideal for kitchens, hallways, entrance areas and uncomplicated everyday spaces.
- Premium Faux Leather B2: very robust choice for garden benches, balconies, terraces, outdoor hospitality, hotels, saunas, swimming pools, boats, medical practices and regular outdoor use.
- Premium Faux Leather B1: flame-retardant premium faux leather according to DIN 4102 B1 for care homes, clinics, medical practices, public facilities and areas with B1 requirements.
Note: Premium Faux Leather B1 is mainly useful when flame-retardant material according to DIN 4102 B1 is explicitly required. For most robust outdoor, hospitality and contract applications without B1 requirements, Premium Faux Leather B2 is the suitable choice.
Bench cushion 100x40 cm for garden bench, balcony and entrance area
The size 100 × 40 cm is particularly suitable for compact seating areas where a little more depth is desired. In entrance areas, a bench cushion makes hard hallway or shoe benches more comfortable. On a balcony, terrace or small garden bench, a matching cushion can significantly improve seating comfort.
For protected outdoor areas, Panama, Mali or faux leather can be a suitable choice depending on use. For regular outdoor use, we particularly recommend Premium Faux Leather B2 or, where corresponding fire protection requirements apply, Premium Faux Leather B1. Both materials are water-repellent, easy to care for and significantly more resistant than classic interior fabrics.
Important: Due to its removable cover with zip, the finished bench cushion is not fully waterproof by construction. In heavy rain, snow, standing water or longer periods of non-use, the cushion should be stored in a protected place.
Bench cushion 100x40 cm with fixing
Optionally, you can order your bench cushion 100x40 cm with fixing ties. These are attached as standard to the rear corners on the zip side and help to secure the cushion on the bench.
Alternatively, a suitable anti-slip mat is available in the shop. It is placed underneath the cushion and can be cut to size if required.
Measuring correctly for a bench cushion 100x40 cm
Measure the seating surface of your bench directly on the piece of furniture and not on an old cushion. Check the width and depth in several places, especially with older wooden benches, metal benches or handmade benches.
If your seating surface is exactly 100 cm wide and 40 cm deep, the bench cushion 100x40 cm will usually fit very well. You will find illustrated instructions in the Lekoni® measuring guide.
Other sizes and custom bench cushions
If your bench is narrower, the bench cushion 100x35 cm may fit better. For longer benches with a classic depth, the bench cushion 120x40 cm, the bench cushion 140x40 cm or the bench cushion 160x40 cm are popular alternatives. If your bench has more seat depth, the bench cushion 120x50 cm may also be interesting.
You will find an overview of material choice, cushion thicknesses and areas of use in the custom bench cushions category. If you need a different size, you can configure your bench cushion individually in the cushion configurator.
