Measure where your hands meet the keys
Wear the shoes you normally use and stand on your usual floor or mat. Let your shoulders settle and move your forearms to a comfortable typing position. Measure from the floor to the keytops there. Subtract the height the keyboard adds. If the keys work at 132 cm and the keyboard adds 2 cm, the top needs to reach about 130 cm.
Check the mouse surface at the same time. A key height that works only when your shoulders rise or you bend forward will be tiring to use. Try the target with a stable surface before choosing a desk. Measure the seat and key position as well if you plan to work seated or share the desk. Body height alone does not give either target.
Desktronic HomePro with a 128 cm maker maximum
Desktronic gives 63.5–128 cm for the HomePro with a 25 mm top. The selected grey-and-walnut version includes a 140 × 70 cm worktop. The Amazon listing gives a different range in its feature text, so ask Desktronic to confirm the finished maximum for the exact bundle if you need the last few centimetres.
For a wider height range
Desktronic HomePro 140 × 70, grey and walnut
A 140 × 70 cm electric desk with a one-piece 25 mm top and a three-stage frame.
Check the finished height against both users and confirm the supplied revision if a height limit is critical.
- 140 × 70 cm top
- 63.5–128 cm maker range
- Three memory presets
Measure from the floor to the top after assembly. Carpet compression, levelling and an added mat can affect how the height feels. If the desk reaches your target only at the top of its travel, check the screen and desk movement at that position with your usual equipment.
Maidesite T2 Pro Max for a higher finished top
Maidesite lists 65–135 cm for the black T2 Pro Max frame. With a compatible 25 mm top, the calculated finished range is 67.5–137.5 cm before other adjustments. Maidesite lists tops 110–220 cm wide and 60–100 cm deep. Check the exact top, fastening and load requirements before assembly.
For more standing height
Maidesite T2 Pro Max frame, black
The frame-only range reaches 135 cm before a compatible top is fitted.
Calculate the finished height with your approved top. Check the actual load, screen clearance and cable path at the high setting.
- 65–135 cm frame range
- Separate worktop
- 137.5 cm with a 25 mm top
The worktop thickness changes both ends of the range. A thicker top raises the seated minimum and adds moving weight. If the desk is shared, calculate the lowest and highest key positions for both people before choosing the top. Include any tray or keyboard feet you will use.
Check the monitor and room at full height
Set the monitor separately from the keys. The highest corner of the monitor can reach a shelf or sloping ceiling before the desk reaches its maximum. Sketch the side view with the desk, screen and any arm at their highest intended positions. Check the leads at that position and confirm they stay clear of the lifting columns at the lowest setting. Measure knee clearance and handset position when seated.
Make a note of your target and how far it sits below the desk’s maximum. If they are close, confirm how the manufacturer measures the height and whether the quoted range includes levelling feet or the selected top. Check again with the monitor in its working position.
Common questions
What desk height should a tall person look for?
Measure your standing key height and subtract keyboard height. Choose a desk that reaches that finished top height comfortably.
How do I convert a frame maximum to a finished height?
Add the thickness of an approved top to the frame-only maximum and account for any additional hardware or levelling.
Will a thicker top help?
It raises both ends of travel and adds mass. Check the seated position and the maker’s top limits.
Should I raise the monitor by the same amount?
Set monitor and keyboard positions independently. Check the top corners and the cable path as the desk moves.
What if two users have different heights?
Check the full set of seated and standing measurements for both before choosing the frame and top.
