How to Choose the Right Office Desks for Your Business

When setting up office, one of the biggest decisions you will need to make is which office desks to buy. The right desk can make all the difference when it comes to a busy and productive day, or a hassled and disorganised one. You might not think it at the time, but the desk you choose can make or break the workspace, so choose wisely.

It is important to consider desks that you can envision your business using for many years and this can only really be done if you invest in a top-quality desk. When it comes to value for money, there is only one place to go: Quantum Office Furniture. We have included a few considerations below for you to think about before purchasing a desk or various desks for your business’s office:

• Identify what type of work the desk will be used for – the size and shape of the desk will be dictated by what it is used for. Paperwork desks will require enough space and storage, whereas desks predominantly used for computer work must be the right height and design too.

• Identify what your work style and habits are – everyone is different and so it is important to get a desk that can cater to each employee’s individual style. Some creative work types will be messy and require more space, while neat and organised individuals will need less space and more opportunity for organisation. This can directly affect the size, shape and design of the desk that you choose.

• Consider ergonomics and space – when choosing a desk; ensure that there is sufficient leg clearance beneath it. Also make sure that there is sufficient space behind your chair to move in and out with ease.  It is important that desktop items are within easy reach and that there is sufficient space for your computer and keyboard to be used comfortably.

• Think about the desired desk surface – you will find that the market typically offers laminate, metal, steel, wood or veneer options. The option you choose will depend on the type of work the desk will be used for.

• Check the quality and durability of the desk – you can do this by checking whether the desk drawers open easily and if they can do so while bearing weight. Also check the corners of the desk for damage or weakness. If the desk is going to support any heavy machinery or equipment, check what weight it can bare first.

Gone are the days where an acceptable office desk was just a table with some storage drawers attached. These days the design, size and convenience of the desk must be scrutinised to ensure that you are getting value for money. It is essential that your staff members are comfortable while making use of the desk, as this will ensure productivity. Happy and comfortable staff members are productive ones.
