Custom Arabic Majlis Furniture in Dubai
Majlis benches, raised or floor-level seating and cushion sets made to the measured wall runs of your room. Built in Ajman for Dubai and UAE homes.
Serving Dubai and the UAE from our Ajman workshop.
How a majlis set is put together
The base is usually a low upholstered bench running the length of the wall, sometimes with a corner return. Back cushions lean against the wall or a low back panel, and seat cushions sit on top of the base.
Because the bench follows the room, we take the wall run, corners and door clearances as one measurement sheet. Cushions are then cut to that run so the seams land in the same places on every section.
- Long wall runs are built in sections so they can be brought in through the door
- Seat and back cushions can be re-covered later without rebuilding the base
- Fabric and foam are matched to how often the room is used
Measurements
Wall runs, corners and door clearances measured together
A Majlis is treated as one continuous layout. Sections are sized so corners meet cleanly and long benches still pass through the doorway.
- Straight and angled corners recorded
- Door swings and circulation protected
- Sections joined and levelled on site

Comfort and colour
Cushions, fabric and coordinated details
Seat foam, loose backs, bolsters, piping and colour combinations are agreed as one set. Existing sound Majlis bases can also be assessed for reupholstery.
- Removable zipped cushion covers
- Fabric selected for expected use
- Existing seating assessed separately

Built around the brief
Why made-to-order work is different
Built to the wall run
Bench length follows the measured run, including corners, so the seating lines up with the room.
Cushions that keep their shape
Foam grades and fibre wraps are selected for the amount of use the majlis gets.
Sections that fit the doorway
Long runs are built in modules that can be carried in and joined on site.
Fabric you choose
Pick a hard-wearing weave from the workshop range or bring your own fabric for checking.

Majlis Furniture questions
Practical answers about measurements, materials and the quotation process.
Can Majlis seating follow an entire wall?
Yes. Each wall run and corner is measured as part of one layout. Long benches are divided into sections that can pass through the door, then joined and levelled on site so the seating reads as a continuous run.
Can an existing Majlis be reupholstered?
Yes, if the bases and frames remain sound. We assess the existing benches, cushions, foam and covers separately, then quote the fabric and padding that actually need renewal. Structural repairs are identified before new covers are made.
How are Majlis corners measured?
We record both wall runs, the corner angle, skirting, columns, sockets and any door swing that affects the seating. Cushion joins and bench modules are then planned together so the corner closes neatly without blocking circulation.
How is majlis seating built and installed?
The bench base is built in sections so it can be carried through the door, upholstered, then joined and levelled along the wall on site. Seat and back cushions are cut to the same wall run so the seams line up across the sections.
