Computer Desks Glossary: Every Term You Need to Know

Product pages for computer desks are full of terms that are easy to skim past but useful to understand. Words such as return, modesty panel, pedestal, grommet, veneer and knee clearance each tell you something specific about how a desk is built, how it will fit and how it will wear. This glossary gathers the vocabulary you are most likely to meet and explains each term in plain English. Entries are grouped by theme, starting with desk types such as corner, L shaped, executive, ladder and gaming desks, then moving on to parts and features, materials and finishes, measurements, ergonomic language and assembly. Along the way we note which details matter most in typical UK rooms, such as depth for monitor setups and levelling feet for uneven floors. Keep it open while you browse and you will be able to compare designs quickly, ask better questions and choose a desk that suits both your space and the way you work....
