About this collection
Porch Swing & Rocking Chair Ideas, explained.
Nothing says porch like a swing. These designs hang swings and daybeds from beams and ceilings, pair rockers on either side of the door, and leave enough room to walk past.
A swing needs a joist that can take the load and about three feet of clearance behind it. Save the arrangements that suit your porch's depth.
What to look for as you browse
- Depth — eight feet for chairs, ten or more for a table or a swing
- How the steps and railings meet the walk and the yard
- Ceiling: height, material and whether a fan or lights are built in
