Majlis seating

Majlis seating built around the room

Majlis rooms are measured wall by wall. Al Rukn Furniture builds the benches and cushions to sit along them, rather than placing standard sofas and hoping the corners work.

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

Why Choose Our Majlis Furniture

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Can you match the fabric to my existing majlis?

We match as closely as the available range allows. Send a photograph of the existing seating in daylight and, if you can, the name or code of the fabric; exact matches depend on whether the original fabric is still produced.

Do you collect and deliver furniture?

Pieces are usually brought to the workshop or collected by arrangement. Once the work is finished the piece can be delivered back, and majlis or fitted items are installed on site. Ask when you request the quotation so transport can be included.

How do I get a price for upholstery work?

Send photographs of the piece and its measurements on WhatsApp, or bring it to the workshop in Al Jerf 1. Upholstery is quoted from the frame, the fabric and the amount of foam being replaced, so the price follows what the piece actually needs.

Request a majlis quotation

Send the wall measurements and a photo of the room so we can work out the bench run and the number of cushions.
