The HT Design 8-inch home theater riser system makes it easy and affordable to create an elevated second row of seating without having to build a permanent platform in your room. Built to last and designed specifically for home theater seating, the modular riser system is available in multiple widths to fit a wide range of seating layouts.
HT Design riser sections are built from solid hardwood and are available in a selection of wood species and finishes. The visible sides and trim are fully finished, while the top surface remains unfinished and ready for carpeting.
Each riser section is 24 inches wide and ships fully assembled. Multiple sections are joined together on site using metal connecting brackets mounted underneath the riser overhang. The brackets securely connect adjoining sections while keeping the hardware concealed from normal view.
Beneath the finished trim is a recessed channel designed to accommodate an optional LED lighting strip, allowing you to add low-level accent lighting along the edge of the riser.
Order an individual 24-inch center riser section or create a complete riser row in a variety of widths. Please consult the dimensions of your specific theater seats to confirm proper sizing. Product photos may show different seating configurations for illustration purposes.
