Installing Verse Maxon Cubicles Is As Easy As 1-2-3

Thursday, April 15th, 2010

A lot of office furniture manufacturers advertise their products as being simple to install. How do you know when this is really true? When they post the instructions online for everyone to see. Check out the Verse panel system setup information for Maxon cubicles to see what really easy installation looks like.

There are literally only 3 pages. One page tells you how to put together the base, the next explains how to connect the panels together, and the third one covers hanging the shelving. That’s it! If you want to delegate installation to your maintenance department but don’t trust your team to read the instructions carefully, don’t worry. The diagrams are very informative. These lightweight panels may not be soundproof, fireproof, or waterproof; but they are basically foolproof!

What About Desks?

This panel system can be installed around your existing desks. It’s very versatile and can actually be used to build free-standing partitions as well. Want to purchase Maxon cubicles that include work surfaces? The manufacturer’s Series 1000 and 2000 desks are compatible with Verse. They can be fastened to the panels with brackets for greater overall stability. This keeps the panels from “creeping” across the floor if they are bumped.

Flexibility Is Key

Panels can also be attached to nearby walls if desired. Either way, they are still easy to take down and reconfigure at a moment’s notice. This can be especially helpful if your business is expanding and you need to add new stations quickly. It also means you can rearrange the panels to create collaborative areas of any size for team projects. Or, you might choose to move all your Maxon cubicles to one side to create an open learning environment for the occasional training seminar.

With the easy extensibility provided by the Verse design, you can even give an employee an instant promotion by resizing his/her cubicle with an extra panel width. You may also use these portable panels to separate two coworkers who can’t stand each other. The only limit is your imagination!

Empower Maxon Cubicles Offer Strength and Versatility

36empower12_smallBusiness owners who are serious about purchasing some of the sturdiest office furniture on the market will be interested in investigating Maxon cubicles. Steel and aluminum are combined to create a panel system that can double as ceiling height walls in the Empower collection. These panels are 3” thick and can be stacked over 10’ high with header tiles. Are you promoting an office worker to a supervisory position? Increase the height of the employee’s cube walls and add a sliding door to create an instant private office.

Frames and Panels

36empower_4_thumbCamlocktm couplers connect these metal frames together. Rather than having two or three points of contact, this patented system runs along the full length of the vertical edge of each frame. This allows you to build a solid, sturdy wall. Initial installation and later changes are fast and simple. All metal surfaces are painted, coated, or naturally corrosion resistant for durability and longevity.

Tiles can be added or replaced at any time to reconfigure or just change the appearance of these Maxon cubicles. Metal tiles are ideal for high traffic areas where more delicate surfaces may be damaged. Laminates and tackable fabrics offer attractive options to match any décor. Glass provides open design alternatives for team workspaces; whiteboards add utility to cube interiors and collaborative areas.

Electrical and Data

You can power your Empower cubicles with cabling run from the floor, walls, or ceiling. Each panel has 2” of interior space to accommodate data and power lines. Run cables through raceways along the floor line or through panel-top channels. Access can be provided at the height of the worksurface or along the baseline - whichever is most convenient.

Customization

36empower_3_thumbWith over 600 sizes and shapes to select from including curved and wraparound styles, Maxon work surfaces can be incorporated to suit any layout. Overhead storage is available with an optional “anti-slamming” option that uses a gas assist cylinder to ease the bin door back into place. Employee storage options range from towers to bookcases and shelving.

To add your company’s personal touch to your Empower Maxon cubicles, send in a digital file with your corporate logo. The manufacturer can apply images with up to 4 colors on laminate or glass segments. For an even more sophisticated look, have your logo etched into the glass tiles. This is an especially nice selection if you are using this versatile panel system to create a reception desk.

Maxon Cubicles - Verse and Versatility

19verseworkstationsThe Verse collection of Maxon cubicles is a grow-as-you go dream for the DIY office manager. These ultra simple panels can be integrated with the manufacturer’s modular Series 1000 & 2000 desks, but they are also intended for use with any system. Just slap together a few panels and use them to wrap your existing workstations. Make a cubicle or series of enclosures in minutes and simply add on new ones as needed.

Partitions can also be connected to construct dividers of any length to break up your office into sections. All that’s required for this are some extra T-base stabilizing feet to keep the “wall” from being knocked over. With plenty of widths and heights to choose from, you will be sure to find a set of panels to fit your space. You can even use them to create a reception station for your front office.

Verse Connection

19verseconnectorsThese Maxon cubicles are super easy to assemble. No tools are required. There are two connection angles available: 180 degree straights and 90 degree corners. Snap on 2, 3, or 4 way connectors at the top and bottom of each panel. Slide the panels together until they touch, and voila - a Verse workstation is born!

When you use Verse with Maxon desking systems, the panels may also be fastened to the desk surface to make the entire structure more resilient. Partitions can also be connected to the wall with brackets for additional support.

Partition Accessories

19versepanelsYou’ll definitely want extra reinforcement if you plan to attach shelving (which can also be installed tool-free). Secure overhead cabinets complete with locking mechanisms are another option to consider. These steel-door bins flip open for easy access. Shelves and cabinets can both be finished to match the paint on the panel frames.

Cost-Saving Panels

If you are looking for the most budget-friendly Maxon cubicles, Verse is where you should start. You can select their basic partitions with no padding (just fabric over MDF board) or the P-Series with 1/8” of added foam. For offices with limited data and power needs, the manufacturer offers panels with no raceway.

Frames feature 1” steel tubes on the sides and the top edge. The metal surfaces are powder coated with epoxy that is baked on to create a rust and chip resistant finish. Color options for the frames are limited to black, gray, charcoal, and taupe. However, you have more choices when it comes to the panel fabric. Mauve is a particularly attractive selection for these Maxon cubicles if you want a break from earth tones.
