Grey Office Furniture

Grey oak, graphite and anthracite: 111 listings from £20. Desks, storage, seating and screens that go with almost any carpet, which is rather the point.

It is the compromise that works. Warmer and more forgiving than white, lighter and less committal than walnut, and it sits against most existing carpet and paint without a fight. In a building you have inherited rather than fitted out, grey is the safe bet.

No, and it is worth knowing. Grey oak is a wood effect with grain; graphite and anthracite are flat, darker greys used mostly on frames and steel storage. They work together deliberately, but they are not the same colour and should not be ordered as though they were.

More often than any other finish, which is why it is here. If matching exactly matters, order a sample product first or send us a photograph of what you have, because grey is the finish where a near miss is most visible.

By hand, against what each product's own specification actually says rather than by a rule that guesses from the name. There are 111 listings in it at the moment, from £20. It is a curated selection rather than an automatic one, so if you think something obvious is missing, tell us and we will look.

Standard delivery is free on everything, and most of it lands inside a week. Express delivery is offered on much of the range, priced per item on the product page, and gets an order to you within two working days if you place it before 5pm. 21 of the 111 products here are made to order rather than stocked, and those take 10 to 15 working days. The product page says which, and shows the date it will arrive by before you pay.

Yes, on 103 of the 111 products here. The crew deliver it, build it, put it where you want it and take the packaging away. Installs usually happen within about 10 working days, and the team agree the day with you rather than simply turning up.

Guarantees across this collection run from 2 to 10 years, depending on the product and the part, and the figure is on every product page. Structure, mechanism, electrics, and fabric and foam are often covered for different lengths of time. If something fails inside the warranty, report it from your order page and we deal with the manufacturer for you.

71 of the 111 products in this collection have a 3D model on the page rather than only photographs. The viewer spins the actual model, and changing a colour or a size on the page changes the model with it, which is worth doing before committing a whole room to a finish.

On stocked items, yes: tell us within 14 days of receiving them and raise it from your order page, with the goods unused and back in their packaging. 21 of the 111 products here are made to order, though, and those cannot be cancelled once acknowledged or returned because you have changed your mind. Each product page says which it is before you buy.

Yes. For twenty items or more, or anything with a complication like a mezzanine or a lift that argues back, we plan the job and give you one quote covering the goods, delivery and installation. Ring 0208 138 0512 or email [email protected] with a rough list or a floor plan.
