They are intended to be suspended from structurally sound supports such as porch beams, pergolas, or swing stands. Many listings note that specific hanging hardware may not be included and recommend professional or contractor installation for secure mounting.
Most listings state adult assembly is required. Many note that tools and a detailed manual are provided to assist with setup.
Some patio swings offer a 2-in-1 convertible design that changes from a swing chair to a flat bed, adjustable protective canopies (examples cite a 100° or adjustable angle), and removable, washable cushions.
