Furniture assembly · Oakleigh South
For desk assembly at your Oakleigh South property, start with the product and the practical requirements. The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support. Fix Nik reviews suitable work involving supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings and confirms the scope before scheduling.
Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
Common situations
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.
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.
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.
Service overview
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.
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.
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
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 Oakleigh South 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.
Oakleigh South property context

State who approves changes if the condition found on site differs from the original photos.
Planning the work
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.

FAQ
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.
