What to Consider When Deciding on University Student Housing Security Desks

While parents may be worried about academics and students more concerned with parties or friends, one thing that everyone can agree on is this: security is paramount on university campuses. Onsite housing has to be secure; operating fully-equipped security desks is a must to ensure safety and give both parents and students more peace-of-mind. What should you consider when choosing your security desks?
Keep the following questions in mind when selecting university student housing security desks:

What type of functionality do you need? Security desks can be equipped with a number of features, depending on your particular needs. These include: work spaces (for computers), locked drawers and/or boxes, transaction counter for people to sign in and out, casters for portability, and locked alert boxes so students and others can leave messages in the event that someone needs help. Carroll Seating Company specializes in creating customized solutions for your work spaces. When you identify a need, we will make sure it is filled with our products.
What size will work best for your residential building? Security desks can come in a variety of sizes, as well as custom sizes. Are space concerns a primary factor? Do you need room for more than one employee at the desk?
Do you want university branding and customization? Security desks perform an important function, but they can also pull double duty. Why not brand them with your school’s colors, mascot, and slogan, or the name of the particular residence. This can help create a cohesive appearance among campus housing and a sense of community.

Safety is a major concern for students and universities; opting for customized security desks will help your school provide the safe environment on-campus residents need and depend on as they walk to classes in the morning and to and from the library (or a party!) at night.

It might be the very first thing they see when they walk in your office, and even if it isn’t, you can be sure that it’s going to leave a big impression. It’s your reception desk, and while you could certainly go with an off-the-shelf model you got at some giant office store, having one customized to meet your needs and the overall style of your office is going to say volumes about your company.

Why Go Custom?

A customized choice has much to offer your company. Take a look at these benefits.

Meet Your Existing Style: Whether you’re having your office renovated or you simply want a new look to your reception area, going with a customized choice means the styles will match perfectly. The last thing you want is for your style choices to clash right where your clients are going to be trying to decide if you’re the right company to move forward with.
Create a More Functional Space: Customizing your reception desk means you get something that actually works. If you need more drawer space, better desktop area, or even task lighting, customization is the perfect way to get it.
Inspire Creativity: There’s nothing quite like customization to help serve as an inspiration for the entire workspace. The more unique, the more likely you are to continually build that culture of innovation throughout your entire space.

Why Carroll Seating Company?

We can work with a variety of different materials from wood to metal and everything in between, and when it comes to reception desks with style, we have a history that’s nothing short of amazing.

Your office space is meant to be beautiful. Everything in it should fit your needs, right down to the woodwork. If you’re looking to move your office to the next level, you probably already understand that off the shelf solutions can’t always do that. Fortunately, you can create a beautiful workspace with customized architectural woodwork.

Your Woodwork Options

Wondering exactly where the right woodwork options might change the face of your office? There are actually several places to consider. Start by rethinking your office as a whole. How efficiently are you using space right now? If it’s just not working, that might be the perfect place to start. You may also want to consider storage. If you need additional storage but you don’t want to compromise on the overall style you already have in your office, our custom architectural woodwork might be the perfect choice. From wall panels to display cases to complete reception areas, we’d be happy to help with all the right touches you may not have considered when you got started.

Be Sure to Consider the Materials

Your work is far from done once you’ve decided on the right architectural woodwork choices. Selecting the materials use will seriously impact the appearance of your project. There are so many options available today, though, that it’s easy to get overwhelmed. You’ll need to consider not only the right look, but your budget as well. At the cheaper end, plastic laminate surfaces provide simple beauty and durability. They look great, yet are easy to clean and maintain. Wood veneer can get more expensive, but often offers an upscale touch that’s perfect in a number of different settings.
