Sit-Stand Desks — Expert Answer
Do sit-stand desks need to be anchored to the wall to prevent tipping?
Wall anchoring for sit-stand workstations is a seismic and safety consideration that OfficeFurniture2go.com addresses for applicable regions and environments. Our standard frames are engineered as freestanding systems with base feet sized to maintain stability under normal use without wall attachment. For installations in seismic zones 3 and 4, or for educational environments with BIFMA G1 stability requirements, we supply optional rear wall-anchor brackets that attach to the column without obstructing height adjustment travel. For installations near children or in high-traffic circulation paths, we recommend the anchor brackets as a standard precaution. Our installation team can coordinate seismic compliance for any applicable project. Call 1-800-460-0858.
