A poolside or terrace package that pairs a slat-top dining table and chairs with a reclining sun lounger is one of the most common outdoor requests we receive from villa, resort and café projects. It is also one of the easiest packages to mis-quote, because the dining set and the lounger are sized, specified and delivered differently. If your enquiry reaches us with the details below, the first quotation we return is usually close to the final one, and production can start as soon as you confirm it.

Start with the two pieces separately, not one set number

Our Aluminum & Teak-Look Slat Outdoor Dining Set & Adjustable Sun Lounger collection is an all-aluminum range: a rectangular slat-top dining set with sled-style chairs, plus a matching lounger with several recline positions. Tell us how many dining pieces you need and how many loungers, and keep the counts on separate lines. A resort pool deck may need thirty loungers and only eight dining tables; a private villa usually wants one of each. Quoting a single "set quantity" hides that split and inflates the price.

Useful figures for the dining piece: table length and width, seat count per table, and whether you want an extendable or fixed top. If you already know the seating layout of the terrace, send the drawing and we will tell you where a table will block a walkway or a lounger will sit in a service path.

Give us the slat finish you want, and the frame colour

The slats in this collection carry a teak-look texture, which is why buyers choose it: the warm timber appearance without the cracking, fading and annual oiling that solid timber on an open deck demands. The look is not one single colour. Send us the colour name, a printed sample, or a photo of an existing slat you want to match, and say whether the frame should be the same tone or a contrast, such as a dark frame against a warmer slat.

If the project already specifies a colour system, name it plainly. If you are furnishing around a completed facade, send a photo of the facade and any existing joinery, so the slat tone and the outdoor furniture frame read as one decision rather than two.

Specify the lounger, not just "matching lounger"

Reclining loungers vary more than dining tables do. For each lounger position, tell us: the number of recline positions you expect, whether you want wheels at the head end for staff or owners to move them, whether the mattress or sling fabric is included, and the colour of that fabric. Fabric on a poolside lounger is the item that fades and is replaced first, so we recommend stating the fabric colour and grade in the order rather than leaving it as "supplier standard".

Where the lounger will sit matters. A covered loggia and an uncovered pool edge take different wear. If your site is within sight of the sea, say so in the enquiry and we will keep the discussion on aluminium frames and slat finishes suited to that exposure, and confirm the hardware specification for the reclining mechanism before production.

Tell us where it is going and how it will arrive

Destination port or door address, the number of pieces per site, and the state of the delivery point decide more than the freight cost. They decide the packing standard and whether a container will be loaded with loungers nested and tables flat, or shipped assembled. Our logistics and door-to-door delivery service covers sea, air and rail freight with customs paperwork, container loading and tracking, so send the site address and any access limits — gate width, lift size, or a rooftop terrace that needs pieces carried up a stair. For multi-site projects, list each site and the quantity for each.

If you have a target date, give us the date the furniture has to be on site and work backwards. An opening date, a handover to a body corporate, or a seasonal opening drives the production sequence; a project with a flexible date lets us combine your order with other work in the same colour specification.

Include the documents your own procurement process requires

Tell us what has to exist before an order is released. Custom and OEM work often needs drawings or a 3D model for approval, a signed sample, and named material and finish codes on the purchase order; our custom and OEM service covers design and prototyping, bespoke finishes and branding such as engraved frames or custom packaging. If your client or architect requires a mock-up review before the full run, say so at enquiry stage — a mock-up added after production starts is a change order, not a favour.

A short enquiry checklist

• Quantity of dining sets and of loungers, listed separately, per site.
• Table length, width and seat count; extendable or fixed top.
• Slat tone reference (name, sample or photo) and frame colour.
• Lounger recline positions, fabric colour and grade, wheels or no wheels.
• Site environment: poolside, covered terrace, rooftop, coastal.
• Delivery address, access constraints, port of discharge if different.
• Required on-site date and any mock-up or approval documents.
• Whether the package extends beyond the dining set — aluminum sling sun lounger collection, dining chairs, or pergola shade over the same deck.

What you get back

With those details we can return an itemised quotation with the slat finish and frame colour recorded in writing, the packing and loading plan, and a production slot. With the same details you can compare two suppliers line by line, which is the real point of a good enquiry: you are not asking who is cheapest, you are checking who is quoting the same thing you are buying.

Send your quantities, a photo of the space and a target date through our contact page, and we will come back with the questions that are still missing before we price the package.
