Reception Counters

Reception Counters

There is a substantial difference between reception counters and reception desks though it may be a subtle one to those not in the know in this area of office furniture. A counter is for bigger areas where perhaps two or three receptionists can sit to take calls, deal with customers and be able to spread out paper work more widely for better viewing.

These can be seen as distinct advantages when considering whether you want to purchase some office reception counters for your business. There are many types of heights and widths available as well as ones that curve round for a softer feel with no hard edges to scrape your knee against.

Top brands in this type of product include Burocolour and Bienvenue and most of them come with added features such as modesty panels, glass tops for a classier look and extra panels to either make the reception counter higher or add on more to the side.

If your business has a sensitive side to it and you need to keep your staff safe then a high reception counter is an excellent idea as they can be shielded behind it for whatever reason. You also want to look for comfort so that the height of the actual desk is suitable enough and comfortable enough to use with a chair that either has arms or not.

Most counters come in an easy-on-the-eye blond wood though there are the options of a darker colour for a stronger look. It is up to you to decide which will look best with the rest of your office furniture.
