Introducing the UPLIFT V2 & UPLIFT V2-Commercial 4-Leg Standing Desk Frame

You may already own your ideal desktop and now you’re ready to make it height adjustable. You may be wondering whether you should use a 2-leg or 4-leg height adjustable frame. The UPLIFT V2 2-Leg Frame is a great choice for most users—but when you need even more lifting power, strength and stability, we recommend the UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Standing Desk Frame.

With 180 lb more lifting capacity than our 2-leg frame, which was named the Best Standing Desk by both Wirecutter and Forbes, this 4-leg version is also a great choice for larger desktops (it’s used on both of our bamboo Conference and Ping-Pong tables). The frame supports desktop widths ranging from 42" wide on up (so long as it's stable). Each of the frame's four inverted legs has a welded stability brace and a powerful motor, making for a very sturdy desk with 535 lb of lifting force. If you're looking for a height adjustable desk to help you stand and sit at the perfect heights for your body, look no further.

Comparing the UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Frame to the UPLIFT V2-Commercial 4-Leg Frame

The UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Frame can achieve desktop heights between 25.3" and 50.9" (with a 1"-thick desktop installed). Its inverted leg design and welded stability braces increase its sturdiness at all heights; and its four motors lift a total of 535 lb with quiet grace.

We created the UPLIFT 4-Leg V2-Commercial Frame specifically to meet the ANSI/BIFMA G1-2013 Height Standards, which are the standards many companies use to ensure their office furniture supports ergonomic working postures for the widest range of people possible. The Commercial frame achieves a 3" lower height to fit shorter workers. We added a lower stability crossbar and increased the thickness of the legs by 35% to allow for this lower height and still have a stable frame. This gave us a sturdy desk that meets the ANSI/BIFMA height range (with a 1"-thick desktop): 22.6" - 48.7" height adjustment range.

The UPLIFT 4-Leg V2-Commercial Frame with a 1"-thick top properly accommodates anyone from 5'0" to 6'3", whether they're sitting or standing. Without a desktop, it adjusts heights from 24.3" - 49.9".

The benefits of the UPLIFT V2 UPLIFT V2-Commercial desk frames are compatible with anyone from 5'0" to 6'3" tall

Set up to four preferred heights using the Advanced Keypad memory buttons

Access All Features with the Advanced Keypad

Some of the features of your frame can only be accessed if you choose the Advanced Keypad during purchase, including: memory presets, min/max limits, the keypad child lock, and a display auto-dark.

Perhaps the most obvious advantage of the Advanced Keypad is that you can set up to four different heights in your memory bank. Once you have your preferences saved, just press a button and your desk will raise or lower to the right level.

For safety purposes, you can program how high or low your desk will adjust, preventing you (or anyone else) from bumping into objects above or below the desktop. The child lock helps with this as well—simply lock the keypad when you step away. If, for some reason, the desk does bump into something, its collision sensitivity will stop it from moving when the reverse activation is triggered.

The auto-dark keypad display is convenient for minimizing light distractions; 10 seconds after you press a key, the display dims.

Power and charging accessories are available for your desk

Feeling Powerful Yet?

Once you install your desktop on the 4-leg frame, you'll have a height adjustable workstation that can move over 2 feet from low to high. This means you'll need a power solution that moves with you—or at least provides enough slack to keep your computer from coming unplugged when you height adjust.

Implement a Wire Management Plan

Managing the cables that run across and under your desktop isn't necessarily an exciting topic of discussion—but it's something you don't want to overlook. Now that you're at a standing desk, the cables that hang down may become more apparent. Not only that, but those cables could possibly snag on something as you adjust the height of your desktop.

We have many different cable management solutions to help you route and hide away what could otherwise be a tangle of wires, preventing snagging and providing a clean look to your workspace. Your UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Frame even comes with a wire management tray, to help you get started.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click here for FAQs for our UPLIFT V2 Frame and UPLIFT V2-Commercial Frame.

What are the new features of the v4 control box?
When it comes to safety, collision sensitivity is number one. The new control box has better sensitivity to tell when the desk bumps into something during height adjustment—and if it does, the desk stops and reverses slightly. There's also a keypad child lock, which you can set to keep little hands from playing with the buttons when you're not around.

The new control box can also toggle between one-touch and constant-touch modes, allowing you to set your preference with just a few buttons. And whether you're a standard or metric type of person, your keypad can display the desk's height using the "proper" units (inches or centimeters).
Is the 4-leg frame as quiet as the 2-leg frame?
It certainly is—both frames produce 50 db when adjusting their heights!
Why are three-stage frames better than two-stage frames?
That has to do with the three spindles we have in each of our frame legs—versus the standard two you'll find on cheaper height adjustable frames. Because we add a spindle, it makes our desks 33% quicker to adjust! Also, our three-stage frames offer you a higher range of height adjustability, so they suit a wider group of people, from the petite to the very tall—and even kids!

If you plan on adding a treadmill to your standing workstation down the line, a three-stage frame will give you the extra boost you need to raise your desk high enough to use it.
Will two people be able to move the 4-leg frame?
The 4-leg frame is quite substantial, so this really depends on how heavy your desktop is. More than two people might be necessary to move a large conference table. Be sure to include casters on your frame if you plan on moving the desk often.
Can I use the 4-leg frame with a circular top?
Certainly! The 4-leg frame is great for unique desktop shapes, including circles and ovals. Just make sure to evenly distribute the weight across all four legs—and choose a substantially solid desktop.
How can I tell which control box I have?
You can quickly check to see which version of the control box you have by glancing at the silver label on it. If it says v4.1, v4.2, or v4.3, you know you have the newest version of our control box, which includes several new features!
What is the ANSI/BIFMA X5.5-2014 Durability Standard?
The X5.5-2014 standard ensures that both of our UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Standing Desk Frames meet and exceed strict tests of desk loading, racking, leg strength, vertical adjustment, and cycle testing.
Why doesn't the frame work if I remove one of the legs?
Each control box is specific to the number of legs on the frame (2, 3, or 4). Therefore, if you remove one of the legs, the entire frame will not work.
What is the benefit of a 4-leg frame over a 2-leg frame?
The 4-leg frame is inherently more stable, based on the principles of physics. It also has a larger carrying capacity, which comes in handy if you are using your desk to carry something substantial, like a large quilting machine or a turntable.
Why does this frame have a motor in each leg?
All UPLIFT Desk frames boast a motor in each leg so that you can rest assured that your desk is the safest, quietest, strongest, and most reliable desk you can buy. Most electric sit-stand desks on the market only have a single motor.
Are there any restrictions to the kinds of tops that I can attach to this frame?
You can install very wide desktops with this frame, so long as they are stable and don't exceed the weight capacity of 535 lb. The frame needs a 42" desktop, at minimum. Please note that 42" and 48" desktops cannot have grommets, since the frame interacts with the desktop at the grommet placements for those widths.
Can I use a glass desktop?
Yes, you can use a glass desktop, but you will need to mount it to a piece of wood or other material first—and that material should be thick enough to hold the wood screws (included) used to mount your desktop to the frame.
If I live outside of the United States, will this frame work with my outlets and voltage?
All control boxes by UPLIFT Desk are designed to run on the US electricity standard of 120V. If you are ordering an UPLIFT Desk frame from outside the United States (other than Canada), you'll need to plug it into a step-down transformer first. If you don't use a transformer, you run the risk of overloading your frame's control box, which is not covered by warranty. If you have any questions at all regarding how your country's voltage works with this frame, call, email, or chat us here on our site.
Is the track spacer compatible with the 4-leg standing desk?
Yes, however the cubby that is included with the track spacer is not compatible. You would just need to remove the plastic cubby from the Track Spacer bracket to avoid interference with the front crossbars.
What leg cable lengths does the frame ship with?
The 4-leg frame ships with two 4.3' (1.3 meters) cables and two 8.2' (2.5 meters) cables.
