Desk Parts & Accessories
How to choose desk parts & accessories
Material
Metal/steel gives strength but adds weight, while wood/oak looks warmer but dents easier.
Colour
Pick black, grey, silver, white, or dark olive to blend with your current desk, or choose gold for a statement.
Sub-type
Full furniture pieces take more room, whereas office furniture accessories like legs and feet upgrade what you already own.
Shape and size
I-beam or X-shaped steel frames suit large desks, while 15 cm straight heels suit low furniture needing a small lift.
Next step
When the type is clear, scan the available listings to see which finish and size fit your room.
What's good
- Steel desk legs and frames (metal/steel tier) give a stable base for heavy tops.
- Solid wood or oak legs bring a natural grain look that suits home offices.
- Small metal feet and heels (office furniture accessories) let you level a wobbly desk without replacing it.
- A wide colour range, from black and white to dark olive and gold, helps match existing furniture.
Things to watch
- Raw or powder-coated steel legs (metal tier) are heavy, so fitting them often needs two people.
- Wood or oak legs show scuffs more easily than metal and need periodic care.
- Chrome or stainless steel finishes (silver, golden) mark with fingerprints and need frequent wiping.
- Plastic components are light but bend under load, making them poor for large desk tops.
Care & maintenance
Metal care
Dust metal frames with a dry cloth, and use a damp one for sticky marks on black or grey coatings.
Wood care
Apply furniture oil to wood or oak legs once or twice a year to stop the grain from drying.
Fixings
Tighten the screws on furniture feet every few months to keep them secure.
Delicate finishes
Avoid scouring pads on gold or stainless steel to keep the surface smooth.
