Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
Service overview
A separately purchased desktop may not share the fixing pattern or supported dimensions of the base. Provide both product specifications. Do not assume that drilling extra holes or shortening the top is included in a straightforward furniture assembly quote.
Explain whether the desk uses a manual adjustment or a powered system. The advertised service covers suitable mechanical furniture assembly. Wiring changes, power-point work and motor or controller repairs are not included simply because they are part of the same workstation.
Drawers, modesty panels and return sections add work beyond attaching legs to a top. Include the full product configuration. Supplied mechanical fittings can be considered together, while unrelated storage units should be listed as additional items in the quote request.
The agreed service covers manufacturer-directed assembly of supported desk frames, tops and supplied furniture hardware. Exclusions: Electrical installation, cable relocation, custom joinery, motor/controller repair.
Common situations
Separate similar bolts using the instruction labels rather than appearance alone. A fastener that is too long can damage a desktop. Keep spare parts and packing information until the assembly is checked and any supplier shortage has been resolved.
Send photographs of the existing joints, loose parts and instructions if the desk is partly built. A cross-threaded bolt or damaged insert can prevent correct tightening. Forcing the joint may make replacement parts necessary instead of allowing a simple adjustment.
Desk tops can be awkward to turn in a furnished office. Clear space for the parts and explain any narrow doorway or staircase. The intended final position and the route from the delivery area both affect how the job can be organised.
Carrum property context
Planning desk assembly in Carrum starts with the actual item and its setting. Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. The address identifies the locality; it does not establish the construction, condition or accessibility of the property. A useful Carrum enquiry identifies the affected room or outdoor area, explains what has changed and includes wide and close photographs. Measurements and access notes help separate urgent repairs from work that can be grouped into a later visit.
How it works
Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace.
The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support.
Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling.
Confirm the Carrum address, access contact and preparation. Mention anything that limits safe handling or use of the space before scheduling.
Follow the desk loading instructions and keep the frame clear of obstacles. Electrical faults or powered mechanism problems need the appropriate specialist.
Planning the work
Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
FAQ
Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling.

Some questions can be clarified from product information and photos; others require direct inspection. Fix Nik can explain what remains uncertain before confirming whether the proposed task is suitable.
Electrical installation, cable relocation, custom joinery, motor/controller repair. Describe any additional requirement separately. Suitability is reviewed before work is accepted, and a specialist requirement must not be treated as a routine extension of the quoted handyman task.
Send photographs of the existing joints, loose parts and instructions if the desk is partly built. A cross-threaded bolt or damaged insert can prevent correct tightening. Forcing the joint may make replacement parts necessary instead of allowing a simple adjustment.
Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling. Timing depends on the actual condition, access, quantities and required stages. Any parts or drying requirements are considered when scheduling; a fixed completion time cannot be promised from the service name alone.
Follow the supplied mechanical assembly sequence, fit compatible furniture accessories and check the agreed positioning and levelling. List each additional item with its own photos and dimensions. Compatible tasks can be considered together, but grouping an enquiry does not expand the service into electrical, plumbing, structural or other specialist work.
