Choosing a Workbench for Your Classroom
We offer a wide range of high-quality workbenches from several manufacturers designed to meet your students’ every need. These workbenches are made from durable materials and come in a variety of styles. Whether you're looking for a workbench for your Makerspace, metal shop, or science lab, we have the perfect solution for you.
Number of Students
The first question you’ll want to ask yourself when choosing classroom workbenches is how much space each workbench should provide. If you expect students to frequently work in pairs or small groups, a workbench that seats 2 or 4 students would be ideal. If the workbenches are purely used as extra space to get projects done, then seating may be less important.
Fixed or Mobile
Next, you’ll want to consider the mobility of your classroom workbenches. Many are a fixed style that is placed in the desired position and rarely moved. Other styles include casters that make it easy to roll the workbench around the classroom, between rooms, or even across campus. These typically come with locks to prevent the bench from moving while in use.
Storage Options
A convenient aspect of workbenches is that they often include some type of storage solution, as well as a helpful place to work. The above benches can include ample storage space to keep your tools and materials organized. From built-in drawers and shelves to cabinet-style and locker storage options, you'll never have to worry about running out of space.
Materials
Workbenches are made from the finest materials available, including solid maple, steel, and high-pressure laminate (HPL). Each material is chosen for its strength, durability, and versatility, so you can be sure your workbench will provide you with years of reliable service, no matter how busy or brutal your classroom is.
Additional Accessories
Depending on your classroom’s specific needs, a variety of accessories are available to enhance your workbench. From pull-out drawers to attached vises, tote trays, and lower shelves, we have everything you need to make your bench the perfect workspace.
