Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
Gentle Annie property context
Planning desk assembly in Gentle Annie 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 Gentle Annie 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.
Service overview
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.
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.
Show the mounting method for a keyboard tray, shelf or cable tray. Accessories need to fit the particular desk and its instructions. Drilling new holes, supporting heavy equipment or adding unrelated brackets requires its own suitability review before inclusion.
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
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.
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.
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.
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 Gentle Annie 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
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.
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.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
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.
FAQ
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.
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.
Follow the desk loading instructions and keep the frame clear of obstacles. Electrical faults or powered mechanism problems need the appropriate specialist. Any limitations, unfinished stages or separate work should be explained at handover. Keep relevant product information and tell Fix Nik if the original issue returns rather than making repeated improvised adjustments.
An uneven floor can make a correctly assembled desk feel unstable. Product-adjustable feet can be checked where supplied, along with the clearances around the frame. Furniture levelling does not include altering the floor or the surrounding building structure.
The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support. Explain what has already been changed and show the current condition. Retain loose parts or product labels. Previous work can affect the available options, so it should be disclosed before the quote is agreed.
