Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Oakleigh property context
Planning desk assembly in Oakleigh 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. Take one close photo of the damage and one wider photo showing the surrounding wall, door or fitting. Add dimensions for shelves, holes, hardware or replacement items, and include product labels when you have them.
Service overview
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.
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.
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.
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.
How it works

Confirm the Oakleigh 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.
