Choosing storage for your desk

A practical guide to drawers, filing cabinets and open shelving.

Start with what you keep

List the items you use each day and those that can live further away. Stationery, notebooks and hanging files need different types of storage. Check your file format against the cabinet dimensions before ordering.

Allow for movement

Check that drawers can open fully and that the chair still has room to move. Decide whether storage should be fitted to the desk or stand separately.

Confirm the details

If you need locks, extra cable access or a particular internal layout, include those requirements in your enquiry. The team can advise which options work with your chosen furniture.
