FAQs

What are the dimensions of the desk when open?

The desk has a length of 60cm. Specific depth and height when open can be found in the product's detailed specifications, typically provided by the retailer.

What is the weight capacity of the desk surface?

While specific weight capacity is not detailed, it is designed for laptops and light paperwork. Avoid placing excessively heavy items on the surface.

Can the drawer pulls be changed?

The drawer pulls are simple leather tabs. While not designed for customisation, they can potentially be replaced with similar-sized hardware if desired, though this may affect the aesthetic.

What type of wood is used for the desk?

The desk is made from walnut wood.

Does it come pre-assembled?

The main desk unit typically comes assembled, but it requires wall mounting, which is a separate installation process.

What is the difference between the Walnut and other versions?

This specific model is the walnut version with brass and petrol blue drawers. Other versions might feature different wood finishes or drawer colors, such as the grey variant.

How much floor space does it save?

By mounting to the wall and folding flush, it frees up the entire area directly beneath it, significantly enhancing perceived space in a room.

Troubleshooting

Desk does not feel stable when mounted.

Ensure the desk is secured to wall studs or appropriate wall anchors. Double-check that all mounting screws are tightened correctly.

Drawers are difficult to open or close.

Check for any obstructions within the drawer runners. Ensure the desk is mounted level. If issues persist, check for any minor warping or debris in the tracks.

Wood finish appears dull.

Clean the surface with a slightly damp cloth and then buff with a dry, soft cloth. Consider using a wood polish specifically designed for walnut furniture, following product instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The desk is designed to be mounted directly onto a wall. It is recommended to identify wall studs for secure mounting, or use appropriate wall anchors for drywall installation. Ensure the mounting hardware is compatible with your wall type. Professional installation is advised for those unsure about wall mounting procedures.

Compatibility:

This desk is compatible with most standard laptops and tablets. The internal drawer dimensions should be checked against any specific items you plan to store.

Care:

Clean the walnut surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the wood finish. For the drawer interiors, a gentle wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient. Ensure the desk is securely closed before cleaning the exterior.
