Start from your height. Finish with a measurement.

These starting heights help you choose a chair and desk that can reach your fit. At a Personal Fit Session we measure you and set everything to the millimetre.

Take the Fit Finder Book a Personal Fit Session

A tape measure checks seat height against the lower leg during a chair fitting

Hands, screens and loupes

Other sizes we check

Mouse: hand length under about 17 cm - Axis Vertical Compact; longer - Axis Vertical.
Screen: top of the screen at or just below seated eye height, about an arm’s length away - Eyeline arms.
Feet: if your feet do not rest flat at your seat height, add a Baseline Tilt footrest.
Dental loupes: working distance and declination angle are measured at the chair - every Focal loupe is made to those two numbers.
