Bleacher Renovations
Ways to Renovate Your Outdoor Bleachers


Outdoor bleachers should be a safe place for viewers to watch sports and other spectator events. Broken or weak wooden planks could be a sign that you need to update old non-compliant bleachers to today’s building and safety codes. There are a few options for meeting code requirements, while also giving your outdoor bleachers a fresh, new look.
Repair Bleachers with Aluminum Planks, Guardrails or Other Bleacher Parts to Meet Code Requirements
Many unsafe or old bleachers can be retrofitted using the existing framework. Depending on your budget and the integrity of your bleachers, using bleacher parts can be a great way to save time and money in repairs. For example, you can replace deteriorated wood planks with maintenance-free aluminum planks to help close non-compliant gaps.
Options for Meeting Code Requirements:
- ADA Accessibility
- Guardrails
- Aisles and handrails
- Openings closed to 4” or less
- Number of exits
At National Recreation Systems, we have every bleacher part and aluminum plank size available. We offer expert assistance in planning your bleacher renovation and have a variety of aluminum plank profiles which provide solid adaptation to most existing understructures.

Add Shade Structures Above Bleachers
If your bleachers are fully up to code, you may be looking to renovate by improving spectator experience. One way to do this is by adding top-quality shade structures above your bleachers. Protection from the elements means spectators can stay for longer. We offer two types of bleacher shade structures, the Cantilever Shade and 4 Post-Hip Rectangle Shade.
