What is the standard height for a reception desk transaction counter?

Transaction counter height is a specification standard OfficeFurniture2go.com reviews on every reception configuration: 42 inches for the primary standing counter, 36 inches maximum for the ADA-compliant accessible section. Both heights serve distinct ergonomic and compliance functions. A 42-inch counter allows a standing visitor to write, sign, and exchange items without bending. The 36-inch section ensures accessibility for wheelchair users and is legally required for public-facing businesses under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Never specify a reception desk without an ADA-compliant counter section for public use. Call 1-800-460-0858.
