How do I match a mobile pedestal to a desk return?

When specifying a mobile pedestal for a desk with a return (an L-shaped or right-angle extension), ensure: (1) The pedestal height is equal to or slightly less than the return surface height to roll under without interference; (2) The pedestal depth does not extend beyond the return into the leg-space zone; (3) The finish matches or coordinates with the return surface material; (4) The pedestal's locking mechanism is accessible from the primary desk position without awkward reaching. Many desk manufacturers offer coordinated pedestal models sold as part of the desk system. Third-party pedestals also work if dimensions are verified. OfficeFurniture2go.com carries pedestals that coordinate with a variety of desking systems — call 1-800-460-0858.
