Where Bralco R18 sideboards work well
This collection suits offices that need a dependable storage point close to desks or shared facilities. A sideboard can help keep documents, supplies and everyday workplace items out of sight while providing a clean boundary between functional zones. The freestanding design also makes the units relevant to layouts that may change as teams, departments or room purposes evolve.
The low cabinet option can be considered for areas where accessible cubby-style storage is useful, such as collaborative spaces or shared work zones. The shelving model is better suited to teams that prefer more defined compartments behind closed doors. Both members have cylinder locks, supporting a need for secured storage rather than fully open shelving.
How to compare the R18 models
Start with access and organisation
Choose the four-shelf sideboard when the priority is a more structured internal arrangement. Four shelves can help separate stored items by category or user, subject to the contents and available space. Select the low storage cabinet with open cubby doors when quick visibility and easier access are more important than fully enclosed storage.
Check the footprint and placement
Before selecting a model, measure the intended wall or room position and confirm that there is enough clearance for doors and normal circulation. Consider whether the sideboard will sit behind desks, along a meeting-room wall or within a shared area. Because these are freestanding units, also check how their placement works with nearby furniture and access routes.
Materials, finishes and practical details
The R18 members use melamine construction and are available across the listed colour range: beige, black, grey, gold, red, white and wood. Wooden legs are specified on the shelving model, while the low cabinet lists natural oak legs. Use the finish to coordinate with existing desks, storage or room accents, but confirm the selected colour and leg treatment for the specific model.
The collection is listed with cylinder locks, no hanging folder frames and no acoustic features. If your brief requires suspension filing or sound absorption, these options should not be assumed to be included. The collection is also marked as circular in its available attributes, which can be considered alongside your organisation’s furniture-planning requirements.
What to check before leasing

- Check whether the cylinder lock, absence of hanging file frames and non-acoustic construction suit the intended use.
- Ask Myntwork about the selected Bralco R18 sideboard on a monthly lease and confirm the next steps for your workplace requirements.
