Clearance to provide behind the desk
We suggest a minimum clearance of 36" for the office chair when there is a wall at the back of the desk. When there is storage, we suggest a clearance of 42" so that you can easily open the drawers or the doors when sitting at his workstation.
Clearance at the front of the desk
If you receive people, allow a clearance from 30" to 42" at the front of your workstation.
If your office has a full front (full height modesty), allow a clearance from 30" to 42" to prevent people from banging their knees.
If you choose an open work table, you can afford a minimum of 30" at the front.
Circulation in the room
For good circulation in the room, if your workstation is perpendicular to a wall, we suggest a minimum passage of 24" between the end of your desk and a wall and / or storage. If possible a 30" space would be preferable.
Tip: If your office chair fits easily between the end of your desk and a wall and / or storage, this is a sign that your circulation is good.
