How to choose the right workbench
Is it time to buy a new workbench for the workshop, warehouse or garage? Not sure which model to invest in? A good workbench should be adapted to the work being performed and to your work environment. This guide will make it easier to choose the right one.
What weight must the workbench withstand?
Before you buy a workbench, think carefully about your needs. It's always easier to find a model that lives up to your expectations and requirements.
Sufficient load capacity and a robust and durable stand are fundamental. If you work with lighter objects, you can get by with a workbench with a lower maximum load. If you handle heavy goods, a more substantial workbench with an extra thick worktop is required. Our most durable models can handle a maximum load of 750 kg evenly distributed.
There are several other factors to consider, such as stand type and worktop material. Also think about what needs may arise in the future and take them into account so that you don't have to change the workshop bench after a few years.
How much flexibility is needed?
Fixed or adjustable legs?
Fixed height legs are good if there is no need to adjust the working height according to different users or jobs.
However, a workbench that can be raised and lowered provides greater flexibility and better conditions for an ergonomic working position. An electrically height adjustable workbench is very convenient but also manually adjustable legs can go a long way. We have several models where the height is adjusted with a built-in crank function.
Stationary or mobile solution?
In most cases, a stationary workbench fits well. But sometimes it is better to choose a mobile bench on wheels that is easy to move, for example to free up space. Many mobile worbenches are equipped with handles that make it easier to move them.
What is the advantage of a stainless-steel workbench?
A stainless-steel workbench, such as a preparation workbench, is easy to clean and suitable for environments with high demands on cleanliness.
What is the most durable countertop?
The worktop should be adapted to the work as some materials are more suitable than others for different types of jobs. For example, a steel board can withstand impacts, sparks and welding sparks, while a parquet board has a high resistance to heavier objects.
Which workbench should I use for a warehouse?
When selecting a workbench for your warehouse, carefully consider its use, material, and size. We offer durable workbenches with robust steel frames, including height-adjustable models to reduce strain. If mobility is required, we provide workbenches with wheels that can be locked in place, ideal for various tasks.
