Abstract

The desking system comprises a top member (2) providing a horizontal work surface and which is supported on a pair of support means (3) one at each end. Each support means (3) comprises a pair of spaced parallel upright members (4) connected to the top member and arranged so that the space between the upright members (4) is aligned with an access opening (6) in the top member. A cable receiving member (9) is slidably engageable between the upright members (4) and is placed in position after the desking unit has been fully assembled by insertion into the space between the upright members (4) through the access opening (6). The access opening (6) is provided with a closure member (7) which defines with the opening (6) apertures (8) through which cabling can extend from the cable receiving member onto the work surface of the top member (2). The cable receiving member (9) provides laterally open elongate channels (12) for receiving cabling, the channel being closable by panels (15).
