Examples
of extension choices on a large size desk, with rotating top to the right.
The QuadDesk comes with optional extensions that add
even more workspace to your desk without impeding your ability to maneuver
your wheelchair in and around the desk.
The above figures show a large desk with the rotating
top on the right ( of course you can also get it with the rotating table to
the left), with all possible extension configurations. Each of these extensions
adds more than 370 sq. in., or 2.6 sq. ft., of additional workspace. Depending
on your needs, and the equipment you have, fax machines, printers etc., you
can get any one of the extensions, or both extensions for a total additional
workspace of 5.2 sq. ft.
Or, because of the QuadDesk's modular design you can
decide to get the basic desk, and get the extensions when you need them.
And of course, as the page shows, the extensions are available for both the
medium or large desks, with rotating tops on either side.

The optional, height adjustable, carousel shown above provides four shelves
that rotate independently of the rotating top. While the carousel provides
extra workspace for books, documents, and other papers, it is ideal for those
who do a lot of reading.
Because the carousel's height can be adjusted all books, documents etc. can
be kept at eye level, or at the most comfortable level, for reading and accessing.
This not only makes turning pages etc. easier, but reading is literally no
longer a pain in the neck.
In addition, because the carousel rotates around a
free standing tube, rotating it is effortless.
Finally, because of the QuadDesk's modular design,
you can get the desk without the carousel, and upgrade it to include the carousel
as your needs grow.


Automatic or Motorized Height Adjustment: As we had mentioned
earlier you can easily adjust the QuadDesk’s height from a low of 26", to
a high of 38", by simply turning a removable crank.
However in addition to being used in an office, or home, the QuadDesk is
also used in multi-user settings such as rehabs, classrooms, and libraries.
In such settings the optional AutoHeight system allows people to change the
desk height to meet their needs with the press of a button. The motor takes
care of the rest. And of course, like for the manually adjusted desk, users
can adjust the height from a low of 26" to a high of 38".
Our experience tell us that this 12” adjustment range is more than enough
to meet your needs no matter how tall, or short, you are, or high or low your
wheelchair is.
