One business may need cubicles that feel more like offices while another company may decide that easy collaboration between workers is more important. No matter what features or functions each company feels is the most important, the cubicles they choose should meet the needs of the company and their workers.
Functions of a Custom Cubicle
Before ordering cubicles for the business, managers and owners need to identify which functions are the most important. Will each worker need additional lighting? Is each cubicle going to be equipped with a computer and printer? For both, the cubicles have to have electrical wiring, because it isn't realistic for every computer and printer to be connected to outlets located on the surrounding walls of the office.
If employees will be accumulating paperwork, each cubicle should be equipped with short file folders. Each employee should also have enough drawer space to store office supplies as well.
Customizing Cubicles
Companies that rely on cubicles for employees may decide that allowing each employee to customize their cubicle will lead to increased worker satisfaction. Each cubicle will have to have just a little more room for personal belongings.
Cubicles can be customized by allowing employees to adjust the size and shape of their cubicles so they create a setup that works best for them. Individual cubicles can be detached and stored away until needed again. This creates additional space within the office.
Configuring a Cubicle Layout
When groups of employees are assigned to a large project, their work is much easier when they can sit near each other. The company should be able to re-configure its cubicle layout, enabling each group of employees to sit and work close to each other. As they work on different phases of their project, this proximity will benefit their overall work effort.
In a traditional office with individual offices separated by fixed walls, this flexibility isn't possible. While businesses may initially view cubicles negatively, once they see how a customizable configuration can benefit them, they may change their minds.
Custom Cubicle Features
Cubicles are made with solid dividers or clear window-like dividers. Other cubicles feature overhead storage bins, creating more work space on and under the desk.
Lower cubicle walls enable coworkers to collaborate on their work. Other offices and groups of workers may need a little more privacy, which makes higher walls a necessity.
Businesses buying new cubicles should look at each feature and its ability to be customized. Because, what one office finds works for its needs won't work for another office.
Selecting New or Re-Manufactured
Finally, businesses have to decide whether they're going to buy new cubicles or invest in re-manufactured cubicles. Re-manufactured cubicles are just as sturdy as new ones. While they were owned and used in the past, the cubicle manufacturer can remove old parts, replacing them with new parts.
The work done on previously owned cubicles makes them look and function like new. As businesses make their choices, they need to know that cubicle manufacturers, such as Cubiture, can work with their specific needs.
