Claiks Standing Desk (48 Inch, Black)

What is the weight capacity of this standing desk?

The desk supports up to 80kg (176 lbs) evenly distributed across the surface. This capacity includes your monitor, laptop, books and other work items. The stainless steel frame and reinforced joints ensure stability even at maximum load. For best performance, avoid placing all weight in one corner and distribute items across the desktop.

How quiet is the height adjustment motor?

The custom motor operates at under 50dB, which is quieter than normal conversation. This makes it suitable for open offices, shared workspaces and home environments where noise matters. The motor uses advanced engineering to minimise vibration whilst providing smooth, consistent lifting power throughout the height range.

What are the exact height adjustment ranges?

The desk adjusts from 72cm to 118cm (28.35" to 46.46"). This range accommodates most users comfortably for both sitting and standing positions. The lowest setting works well with standard office chairs, whilst the highest setting suits tall users in standing position. The adjustment is stepless, allowing precise positioning at any height within this range.

How do the memory presets work?

The control panel stores three different height positions in memory. To set a preset, adjust the desk to your desired height, then press and hold one of the three memory buttons until you hear a beep. To recall a saved position, simply press the corresponding memory button and the desk automatically moves to that height.

What materials are the drawers made from?

The drawers feature fabric construction with felt backing for durability. Whilst not as rigid as wooden drawers, they provide adequate storage for lightweight office items like pens, cables and documents. The fabric design keeps the overall desk weight down and contributes to the modern aesthetic. They slide smoothly on the provided tracks.

Is assembly difficult and what tools are required?

Assembly typically takes 1-2 hours with basic tools. You'll need a Phillips head screwdriver, drill and hammer. All parts come in one package with detailed printed instructions and access to an Amazon installation video. The most challenging aspect is ensuring proper screw alignment, so take time to position parts correctly before fully tightening.

Can the middle shelf be removed or adjusted?

Yes, the middle shelf is removable if you prefer a cleaner look or need space for a laptop. The shelf has two adjustable height positions for ergonomic monitor viewing. This flexibility allows you to customise the desk layout based on your specific equipment and working preferences. Removal requires unscrewing the support brackets.

How does the felt fence system work?

The felt fence creates organised compartments across the desktop surface using removable felt dividers. These prevent items from sliding around during height adjustments and create designated zones for different work activities. The felt material is durable and won't scratch your devices. You can reconfigure the layout by moving the fence sections as needed.
