How do I know if I need a left-hand or right-hand L-shaped desk?

Hand orientation describes which direction the return panel extends when you are seated at the main desk surface facing the wall: left-hand means the return goes to your left, right-hand means it goes to your right. To determine which you need, stand in the corner where the desk will go, face the wall where the main surface will run, and look at which adjacent wall the return needs to follow — that determines your hand. It's one of the most common ordering mistakes, so if you're unsure, describe your room layout to us before placing the order. At FindOfficeFurniture.com we confirm hand orientation on every order — call 888-719-4960.
