  • Are the desks easy to build? Do you provide an assembly service?

    Our desks are designed to be simple to build and we provide excellent instruction manuals and extremely useful video instructions. If it is your first time building one of these desks, we would recommend it should take around 45mins to 1 hour to build. Note that we design our Series 2 desks to be...
  • Can I use my own desktop with a Gostand frame?

    Yes, however we do not recommend using a desk top deeper than 90cm, Any deeper and the frame will be slightly more liable to tip over. In terms of weight and depth of the top, as long as it does not exceed the maximum loaded weight of the desk then you can put it on. The standard screws are for ...
  • Can the 90-degree desk be reconfigured to use it as 3 legs in a straight row?

    Our 90-degree frame cannot be converted to be used in this way. It can only be assembled in the 90-degree position.

    Position the handle horizontally, pull all the way out. It should fold underneath and sit in the holder.
  • How do I attach my Monitor Arm?

    Unless stated otherwise, all our monitor arms come with both a clamping base and also a grommet/through hole base so that the monitor arm can be mounted in either of these two ways. Everything you need is in the box. No other hardware or fixings are required. For further information please check...
  • How long does it take to raise the manual desk to full height?

    Using the hand crank this takes around 45 seconds which is 74 rotations.
  • How stable are the desks? Do they wobble?

    If you look at the internet you will see an enormous amount of information about desk stability and a lot of it is wrong. So we would advise to largely ignore it. Standing at the end of a desk and pushing it is not a good representation of how you will use the desk nor its stability. This tests ...

  • What are Cable Ports?

    Cable Ports are inserted into a desktop and allow you to feed plugs and cables through. This keeps the space on top of the desk tidy and organised.
  • What are Cable Trays?

    Cable Trays can be attached underneath the desk to allow cables and wires to be safely carried. This helps to protect the cables and also keeps everything organised.
  • What are Monitor Arms?

    The descriptions and specifications for each individual monitor arm are listed on the website. Our single monitor arms will all take any monitor with VESA holes in the back of it, either 75mm or 100mm apart arranged as four in a square pattern. There are two main technologies within the range: ...
