Professional reception desk assembly for business premises - desks assembled solid, level, and positioned for optimal workflow. Your reception ready to impress visitors.

First Impressions Count

Reception desks are the first thing visitors see. Wobbly counters and poor assembly undermine your business image. Professional assembly means a reception that impresses.

💡 Pro tip: Consider cable routing before final positioning. Moving heavy reception desks to access dropped cables is difficult.

🔧 DIY Tips

Assembling a reception desk yourself? Here's what matters:

🔧 What you'll need

  • Tools from instructions
  • Spirit level
  • Helper for panels
  • Cable access planned

📐 Assembly tips

  1. Clear large floor space
  2. Check all parts first
  3. Assemble in position
  4. Don't fully tighten until complete
  5. Level before final tightening

⚠️ Common issues

  • Panels in wrong order
  • Not checking level
  • Assembling then moving
  • Overtightening screws

💡 Pro tip: Reception desks are impossible to move once fully assembled. Build in final position - you won't be shifting a 100kg+ desk later.

Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of reception desk?

Flat-pack, modular, curved - most commercial reception desk types. Very large bespoke units may need specialist cabinet makers. We assemble what's been delivered.

Do you position them too?

Yes - we assemble and position to your layout. Reception desks are heavy once built, so getting final position right matters.

What about cable management?

If desks have cable access and management built in, we fit those components. Running cables to wall points is separate.

Can you do this out of hours?

Evening or weekend assembly is often best to avoid disrupting reception. Discuss timing when booking.
