Low storage for shared spaces
Sideboards are low, freestanding cabinets designed for spaces where storage needs to be accessible but visually discreet. Their top surface can support displays, refreshments, printers or meeting equipment, while the cabinet below keeps supplies out of sight. They are a useful alternative to taller storage where open sightlines matter.
Unlike pedestal cabinets for individual desks, sliding door cabinets for compact access or tambour cabinets for larger document storage, sideboards are chosen for their lower profile and furniture-like presence. Browse our wider range of office cabinets when planning storage across the workplace.
Choosing a sideboard
Start with the wall length, available clearance and the items the cabinet needs to hold. Consider whether doors, drawers or open sections suit the intended use, and select a finish that works with surrounding furniture.
- Choose a low height that preserves sightlines in reception and meeting areas.
- Match the width and storage layout to paper, serviceware, technology or display materials.
- Coordinate color, handles and finish with nearby tables and seating.
