Abstract

A multiple level or tier foldable bench type seating assembly which is mounted to a wall or bulkhead and which may be folded to a compact position against the wall. A support is secured to the wall. An upper seat support is pivotally attached to the wall support at a bracket. The opposite end is pivotally attached to a rear leg. A lower seat support has a front folding leg and has a roller which travels in a track on the rear leg between the folded and unfolded position. An anti-tampering detent lock prevents the inadvertent or unauthorized folding of the seating.
