Your Guide to Site Office Supplies & Furniture
A dedicated office space on your construction site is useful in many ways, bringing a wide variety of benefits. Particularly useful as a security solution for storing valuable goods and information, a site office functions as a highly versatile space that can adapt to the needs of the site in an instant, be that in the form of a recreational space or a canteen for workers.
Most small-scale projects will lack the space required to set up an office on-site and may instead opt for an outside service if the need arises. Larger projects, with more space and wiggle room when it comes to budget, will be able to invest in a designated space or erect a modular building to fit the purpose.
With an on-site office, you can hold meetings and see to admin tasks quickly and easily by simply stepping off-site and straight into the office. This also provides the perfect hub for visiting managers, stakeholders, and site owners to conduct business and work alongside each other.
Perhaps you already have the space set aside and want to utilise it as a working office. In this case, you have come to the right place for setting up your office, with this guide offering an overview of the best supplies and furniture to make the most of your space.
Opting For Ergonomic Office Furniture
Starting with the basics, we offer robust and comfortable mesh office chairs and modern oak desks with drawers. This simple setup is the first and most important step to take, and our vast selection of designs lets you craft a space that works both with and for you. For example, we even stock desks made entirely from recycled materials.
Next, some form of storage is always useful for personal items or classified paperwork. Our high-strength steel cupboards are ideal for the former, and our lockable filing cabinets for the latter.
If your site office is acting as a hybrid space, transforming into a canteen or recreational area, you could even opt for a cloakroom single bench for workers who might need to change into workwear or a simple conference or meeting table for gathering workers together for briefings. Our black leather meeting chairs are incredibly comfortable and stylish.
Be Prepared With All the Right Office Supplies
The right furniture for your office is dependent on your taste and how you plan to use the space. Luckily, at Bryson, we have everything from selections of pens to pots to store them in.
On the subject of stationery supplies, you could start by stocking up on items such as ballpoint pens, assorted highlighters, and simple shorthand notebooks to keep track of thoughts and ideas. From there, you could adorn the walls of your new site office with a white drywipe board (and coloured markers), perfect for mapping out project plans and conveying your strategies to workers visually, as well as notice boards for keeping track of important information or displaying safety notices and signage.
Smaller desk-drawer supplies aside, we also stock a range of larger appliances that would suit a spacious site office environment. Our portable air-conditioner from Igenix is ideal for maintaining a comfortable climate within your office any time of year, and our all-in-one wireless inkjet printer is an office essential. We even stock packs of A4 and A3 copy and printer paper to keep your supply abundant.
Lastly, a visitor record book is a handy tool for maintaining tight security around your site by logging the comings and goings of site visitors who are outside of your company.
