Choose around the user and the room
Start with the people who will use the desk, their equipment and the space available. A height range that suits one person may not suit everyone sharing a workstation. Check both seated and standing positions before settling on a specification.
Details worth discussing
- Desktop width, depth and usable space for screens and equipment.
- The minimum and maximum height of the selected model.
- Individual workstations or back-to-back arrangements.
- Controls, available finishes and any optional accessories.
- Cable management, screens and clearance throughout the desk’s movement.
- Load limits, warranty terms and installation arrangements for your chosen specification.
Think about the whole workstation
A moving desktop is one part of a workstation. Consider the chair, screen position, keyboard, lighting and the way the person works as well. Ask about DSE workplace assessments where appropriate; buying a new desk is not a substitute for looking at the complete setup.

Prices and lead times depend on desk dimensions, frame and top choices, accessories, quantities and installation requirements. Tell Pam where the desks will go and what equipment they need to support, and she can discuss the available options.
