The Height adjustable desk, also called a lift table, features adjustable height to accommodate the needs of different workers and job requirements. Height adjustable desks are designed for light, standard, or heavy-duty use. For this reason, they are suitable for a wide variety of work environments.
Adjustable desks are equipped with cranks for manual height adjustment. Simply turn the crank in one direction to raise the height and turn it in the other direction to lower the height. Electric hydraulic motors are also available to ensure easy, smooth, and quick height adjustments. It’s even possible to program individual height preferences with multiple-position memory switches. This is a useful feature when more than one person is using a power adjustable desk.
There are many benefits to having height adjustable desks. For example, the need for less office furniture and improved worker health and ergonomics. They also improve efficiency and adaptability to accommodate diverse work environments.
A Requirement for Fewer Desks
Today, many workplaces increasingly encourage “hot desking”, which is when employees move freely from desk to desk. However, not all employees have the same body type. For this reason, hot-desking requires flexible furniture options to accommodate the different needs of employees. An adjustable height computer desk provides a convenient solution. These types of desks can easily lower or raise according to the height and ergonomic needs of the employee. This way, many employees can share the same adjustable desk. With a need for fewer desks, workplaces can save money and make better use of space.
Health and Ergonomic Benefits of a Height Adjustable Desk

Adjustable workstations also provide health and ergonomic benefits. For example, some employees don’t have the flexibility to get away from their workstations every hour. An adjustable height computer desk allows for more variation in body position. This can help prevent stiff, tired, or painful muscles and joints. An adjustable height feature can also provide a more comfortable workplace. For example, whether your employees are short or tall, they can adjust the table to their individual comfort level.
Adjustable height computer desks also help to reduce strains and injuries. Common injuries include backaches, wrist problems, and neck pain. Adjustable desks can sometimes benefit workers who have existing back problems since standing for part of the day can offer relief and aid recovery. Each employee has a distinct body shape and it’s important to accommodate these needs. For example, if a tall person is working at a shorter desk, they will have to bend over which can lead to back problems.
Functionality and Adaptability to Different Workplaces
From private offices to laboratories, to industrial workplaces, adjustable standing desks can easily adapt to almost any workplace. The ability to adapt and add custom features to the tables can help improve workplace efficiency. When ordered from RDM Industrial Products, these factory direct and industrial quality adjustable tables can be customized to nearly any configuration. For example, an optional lower shelf can create a convenient storage area for a microscope or other equipment. Also, a dual-platform style is great for laboratory environments when there is a need to regularly work on two tasks simultaneously.
The weight capacity of an adjustable standing desk, or a power adjustable desk, can range from 500 pounds all the way up to 3,000 pounds. Adjustable desks are also available with wheels for added mobility. Once moved into place, the desk wheels can be securely locked down, for static use. Best of all, an adjustable height feature is available on almost every type of industrial table. Examples include heavy-duty stainless steel lift tables and height adjustable light tables. Other examples are adjustable laboratory tables, such as ergonomic microscope tables with vibration-damping levelers.
