A height adjustable desk allows you to precisely determine how high your desk will be when you’re sitting or standing.
Compared to traditional desks, height adjustable desks can help reduce the aches and pains associated with spending hours sitting at a desk, as it means you’ll be encouraged to keep moving. So, whether you work from home or in an office space, everyone can benefit from a height adjustable desk.
We have desks to suit every office environment, including small desks, corner desks and portable desks. Our height adjustable desks can even handle multiple monitors, ensuring your work setup will always be at the ideal height.

Height Adjustable Desk Benefits
It’s a simple fact that fixed height desks aren’t built with your health and wellbeing in mind. Given the average worker will spend 10 hours sitting down per day,
with 70% of this happening at work, it can soon create issues – especially if the height of the desk is not compatible with your own height.
As a result, you may notice muscle aches and pains from working at your desk, which apart from affecting your health can also impact productivity and performance.
Adjustable height desks give you the freedom to move your desk so that it offers the optimum height when sitting or standing. For those who currently experience neck and back pain from desk work – a common risk of a sedentary lifestyle – adjusting the height of your desk can help you adopt a much better posture.
An adjustable desk will also encourage workers to switch between sitting and standing. There’s no ‘correct’ sitting position for prolonged periods of time,
so regularly moving from a seated position to a standing position for a total of 2–4 hours per day can increase mobility, boost oxygen flow to the brain and help reduce the health
risks associated with a sedentary lifestyle.
Height Adjustable Desk Types
Whether you want the ability to switch your posture while on video calls, or if you typically spend many hours a day sitting at a desk, the ability to adjust the height of the desk puts you in control. Our desks are also flexible for those who are short on space, need room for extra monitors or even collaboration with colleagues.
If you are unsure which height adjustable desk is right for you, it’s time to dig out the measuring tape! By measuring both your available space and your own height, you can land on the perfect desk type, plus ideal working height for you.

What is a Height Adjustable Desk?
A height adjustable desk puts you back in control of your comfort while working at a desk. Specifically, a height adjustable desk allows you to customise the height of your desk so that your spine, hips and head are in better alignment.
The mechanism that allows you to adjust the height of your desk can be operated manually by using a crank or lever. Electric height adjustable desks offer a contemporary alternative, as they allow you to program your ideal sitting and standing height into the desk providing the ultimate convenience.
Alternatively, a desk converter sits on top of a traditional desk to provide yet another way you can adjust the height of your working setup.
