Furniture assembly · Tecoma
A useful desk assembly enquiry in Tecoma shows both the item and its surroundings. Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Fix Nik can explain what affects suitable work on supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings, without assuming a solution before the details are reviewed.
Desk Assembly
supplied desk tops, frames and mechanical furniture fittings
Service overview
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.
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.
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.
Tecoma property context
An occupied Tecoma property may need preparation before desk assembly can begin. Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. For a Tecoma quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
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.
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 desk loading instructions and keep the frame clear of obstacles. Electrical faults or powered mechanism problems need the appropriate specialist. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
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.
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.
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 Tecoma 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.
FAQ

Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Include a wide view as well as close details, keeping product labels readable. Do not dismantle a difficult or unsafe item just to take photographs; explain the access limitation instead.
The top, frame and fasteners must be compatible; a close visual match does not establish suitable hole positions or support. Unexpected damage, incompatible materials or access limitations should be discussed before extending the work. A photo enquiry is not authorisation for additional tasks or a promise to resolve every concealed problem.
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.
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.
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.
Send the desk model, frame and top specifications, carton labels and a wide view of the workspace. Include your Tecoma address and access details so Fix Nik can review the work and explain the next step.
