Desk Space Planning — Expert Answer

What is the recommended desk height for seated work?

Standard desk height is 29"–30" for seated work in office environments. This suits users approximately 5'8"–6'2" seated at an ergonomically adjusted chair. Users shorter than 5'4" benefit from desk heights of 26"–28" or a height-adjustable model. The ergonomic goal is forearms parallel to the floor with a relaxed shoulder when typing. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we offer fixed-height desks in standard and ADA heights, plus a full sit-stand line — call 1-800-460-0858.
