Reception Desks — Expert Answer
How do I choose a reception desk for a small lobby?
Specifying a reception desk for a constrained lobby is one of the most technically demanding planning exercises in office furniture — and OfficeFurniture2go.com does it every day. The key parameters: minimum 36 inches of clear floor behind the desk for the receptionist, minimum 48 inches in front for visitor approach, and ADA-compliant transaction counter height regardless of desk size. A straight run with a single return keeps the footprint compact while still providing full workstation functionality. We often specify a hutch to add vertical storage without expanding the floor plan. Small space does not mean compromise — it means precision. Call 1-800-460-0858.
