Reception Desks — Expert Answer
What is the standard height for a reception desk transaction counter?
The standard transaction counter height on a reception desk is 42" — this allows standing visitors to comfortably sign documents or interact with the receptionist without bending awkwardly. ADA regulations require at least one accessible transaction counter section at 34" or below for wheelchair users. Premium desks sometimes feature adjustable-height transaction sections.
