4 useful features of our new custom desk builder tool

If you’re fitting out an office, finding the right desk configuration for your space and capacity requirements can be difficult. If you find a desk that’s the correct type, shape and size, you have to hope that the frame colour matches your existing furniture or the design you have in mind. And, if the frame matches, does the desktop? At BPF, we understand the challenges of finding the right desk for your office space, so we decided to make life a little easier.

We created a custom desk builder tool to help you create the office look and feel that you’re after with custom desks to fit your space and requirements. Our custom desk builder tool enables you to mix and match from hundreds of different desk components to create a desk or desks that work for your office space.

Features of our custom desk builder tool

Choose from a wide selection of desk designs

Different desks have different purposes. Executive desks are better for a meeting room or individual office, whereas a space-saving bench and beam desk set-up may be more effective if you’re looking to accommodate a number of people in an open-plan space. Alternatively, for a more creative space, you may choose a sit/stand height adjustable desk.

Easily see the customisation options

Choose from hundreds of customisation options. With each choice you make, you’ll be presented with the relevant options available to you given the selections you’ve already made. Alter the desk type, the size, the colour of the frame and even the thickness of the desktop to design desks that fit your perfect office layout.

Price transparency

Once you’ve configured your desk, we’ll show you the price of the desk that you’ve built, but we’ll also show you exactly how the price changes if you increase or decrease your order quantity.

Revisit your desk design at a later date

Once you’ve finalised your design, you can enter your details and we’ll email you, your manager or your colleague your finalised design to approve, purchase, or simply give their opinion.

Our custom desk builder tool is extremely versatile, but we understand that all offices are different, so if you need a little more guidance on your office set-up, contact the BPF Online team who will be able to help you work out what you need to create the office design you’re looking for.

Once you’ve customised your desks, you can find cable management systems, office furniture fixtures and fittings and sockets to help you create the clean, organised and enjoyable office environment you’re after. If you need advice on customising your desk or creating the office space you’re looking for, you can chat with us on our website or call us on 0844 7766800.
