What is Dockstool?

Published on May 13

Picture this. You are at a cottage in the beautiful Muskoka district in Ontario. It's a hot, sunny day and you are having a great time with friends. One friend, in a sarcastic tone, asks, "where is the swim-up bar?". And it hits you; why don't we have seats on the side of the dock to sit and cool off on?

When one brother owns a cottage, and one owns a steel fabrication company like the Johnston brothers, this scenario becomes the origin story of the Dock Stool.

What is the Dock Stool?

Manufactured by KYJO Steel out of Woodstock, Ontario, the Dock Stool is pretty much what it sounds like. It's an innovative seat that attaches to the side of your dock. Custom designed and made from 100% stainless steel, it is sand-blasted to create a satin finish look that will last. Lakeside life is not for the weak; that's why the Dock Stool can thrive in any harsh environmental elements it may be exposed to. 

As wet as YOU want to get

The best part of the Dock Stool (other than the instant cool factor it adds to your cottage life) is that it lets you control how wet you want to get. Sometimes you don't want to swim on a hot summer's day, but the cold water calls your name. With your dock now an instant swim-up bar, friends and family of all ages can sit and cool off without being fully submerged. The seat can adjust to different heights depending on your preference, so you can cool off just a little or have your full body submerged.

Adults can relax…

Kids can take swim breaks…

Or, get everyone involved and make it the "safe zone" for water tag… 

No matter how you want to use it, the Dock Stool takes your cottage game to the NEXT level.

What about winter?

In the off-season, your Dock Stool easily disassembles so it can be stored safely. The seat effortlessly folds, letting you store it in a smaller space for your convenience. With easy-to-follow installation instructions, you can install and uninstall your Dock Stool year after year.

Summer has never been better. Be the cottage everyone wants to hang out at. Just make sure it's a BYOB situation…
