The Altura Professional 3 Stage Height Adjustable Desk Frame is the perfect foundation for building your own ergonomic workstation. Designed with dual motors and a sturdy 3-stage leg system, this premium desk frame offers smooth, reliable height adjustment at an impressive 40mm per second. Built to support desktops ranging from 1200mm to 1800mm wide, the Altura desk frame is ideal for Australian offices, home workstations, and educational environments seeking flexibility, durability, and advanced features.
Setting your desk to the right height is essential for ergonomic comfort, posture support, and long-term health. Whether you're standing or sitting, your workstation should keep your body in a neutral, relaxed position to avoid strain on your neck, shoulders, wrists, and lower back.
The correct standing height depends on your own height and working posture. A general guide: elbows should rest at a 90-degree angle, and your monitor should be at or just below eye level. See our: How to Measure Ideal Standing Desk Height

Pro Tips for Ergonomic Success
When selecting a sit-stand desk for your workplace, choosing models that carry respected certifications — such as AFRDI Blue Tick approval, GECA or FSC sustainability credentials, BIFMA compliance, or an E0 formaldehyde rating — ensures you're investing in quality, safety, and long-term performance. These standards confirm that the desk meets rigorous benchmarks for structural durability, ergonomic function, air quality, and environmental responsibility. Whether you're furnishing a single workstation or planning a complete commercial fitout, certified sit-stand desks offer added assurance for procurement officers, facilities managers, architects, and WHS teams who demand compliance, comfort, and commercial-grade reliability.

A sit-stand desk, also known as a height-adjustable or standing desk, allows users to switch between sitting and standing positions throughout the workday. This movement supports better posture, circulation, and energy levels, helping reduce the risks associated with prolonged sitting. Our range includes manual, electric, and dual-motor options to suit various workplace needs.
For long-term performance and compliance in Australian
workplaces, we recommend desks that meet one or more of the following
certifications:

If you’d prefer to match your existing interior design or work with a specific finish, you can purchase just the electric sit-stand desk frame and pair it with a compatible top of your choice. Our frames come with full specifications and mounting dimensions to ensure easy customisation. This is a popular choice for architects, interior designers, and businesses looking for a cohesive fitout look.
Standing desks are most effective when used in moderation. Standing for too long can cause fatigue or leg discomfort. That’s why we recommend pairing your desk with an anti-fatigue mat, wearing supportive footwear, and alternating positions throughout the day.
If you’re looking to improve comfort, support employee wellbeing, or create a dynamic workplace, sit-stand desks are a proven investment. With easy height adjustability, ergonomic benefits, and growing adoption in modern workspaces, they offer both immediate and long-term value.
Most sit-stand desks come with a 5 to 10-year warranty covering structural components and motor function (where applicable). Our Australian-based support team is available to assist with product selection, setup guidance, and after-sales care.
