Collection: Desks with Returns

L-Shaped Desks with Returns

Learn more

Desks with returns are straight desks with an attached side panel that creates an L-shaped configuration. The return provides a secondary work surface at the same or slightly lower height, extending usable desk area without requiring a full corner workstation footprint. They are available in left-hand and right-hand configurations and in standard commercial desk widths.

They suit roles where a secondary surface is needed for reference materials, a second screen, or a phone and stationery zone, while keeping the primary desk surface clear for focused work.

For full L-shaped configurations optimised for corner placement, see corner workstations. For single straight desks without a return, see single desks. For premium and director-tier options, see executive desks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about this office furniture collection? Here are some answers to help. If you need anything further, our team is here to help.

A desk with return is a straight office desk with an attached secondary panel that sits at 90 degrees to the main desk, creating an L-shape. The return adds work surface without taking up the floor space of a full corner workstation. Most return desks at OFC sit at standard desk height across both surfaces, with widths from 1500mm to 2350mm on the main desk. Use them for a second monitor, paperwork, a guest meeting space, or to keep your phone and laptop in separate zones.
Choose based on which side you want the return on when seated at the main desk. A right-hand return (RHS) places the secondary surface to your right, a left-hand return (LHS) places it to your left. The right choice depends on where doors, windows and walls sit in your office, and whether you prefer to face into the room or toward a wall.
Yes. OFC stocks several electric sit-stand return desks. Height adjustable returns let you raise and lower the entire L-shape together, keeping your monitor, paperwork and secondary surface aligned.
