Alera VA25-7224MC office furniture

Desk Shell for L or U Layouts

This Alera desk shell provides a 70 7/8-inch wide worksurface in Medium Cherry with charcoal accent detailing. The commercial-grade top resists water, scratches and dents while 3 mm edge banding adds durability. Two wire-management grommets keep cables tidy and a full-height modesty panel adds privacy. It functions as a freestanding desk or as the core of a larger workstation.

Expands From a Single Desk to L or U Shapes

Adding a Return or Bridge Shell converts this unit into an L-shaped workstation for extra lateral space. Pairing it with both a Desk Shell and a Return or Bridge Shell creates a U-shaped layout that wraps around the user. The upgrade is worthwhile when the workflow demands separate zones for computing, paperwork and peripheral equipment.

Check Grommet Placement and Shell Compatibility

Verify that the two grommet positions suit your monitor arms, power strips and cable routing before assembly. Confirm that any Return or Bridge Shell you intend to attach matches the 23 5/8-inch depth and 29 5/8-inch height for a flush fit. The unit is freestanding, so no wall anchoring is required, but floor leveling should be checked.
