A Little About Fortress Solving seating problems since the 40 s... Primarily a design-oriented manufacturer capable of combining comfort with design, our products have long been regarded as an excellent solution for executive applications, corporate lobbies, conference and boardrooms. Innovative seating solution capabilities...... expand to developing specialized products for unique applications - retractable pocket arms, touch screens and custom chair designs and sizes. Fortress is constantly answering these applications with original products. Theater seating intro...... In 1997 noted designer, Neal Parsons, asked if we would manufacture his home theater seating designs. Neal has been involved in designing home theaters since the early 1990 s and saw there was a need to introduce custom theater seating. He wanted seating that was of the same high quality in the theater as the other furniture in the house. A good theater chair needs...... To complement the design of the theater as well as the person sitting in the chair. By drawing upon our experience gained from manufacturing recliners for the healthcare market, we knew how to build a strong, safe recliner. Combine that know-how with over 60 years of building office seating, it s no wonder people say we have the most comfortable and well-built home theater chair available. Satisfied customers state...... We chose Fortress because we wanted input into what our theater chairs would look like. At 6 8 a standard chair just didn t work. Thank you Fortress. And another, We really wanted to maximize our room and thanks to Fortress willingness to make chairs of different sizes, we were able to get 15 chairs instead of the 13 quoted elsewhere. Our Pledge...... Fortress goal is to provide you with the type of seating you want for your room, whether it is a sectional, sofa with built-in recliners, theater seating that converts to a full-size bed, or one of our many theater seating designs, we believe that you should get what you want. 4 800-873-2828 / www.fortresseating.com
