No other modular counter has an integrated workspace like the LEVITH Counter. One system with a variety of standard components and integrated add-ons. No need for supplementary products.

The work space is an integrated part of the center module having same length as the counter itself. A reception counter often needs to accommodate more than one occupant thus the table can be electrically adjusted within the range of 67,5-90,5 cm. The table top is made of white composite as standard.

Constructions

constructions Edges
The LEVITH Counter has no visible joints. Every module looks as if it was cut in one piece. All joints of the individual modules are bevelled on edges (all parts are folded together). An incredible strong way to connect parts.
Quality & Materials
All components applied are carefully chosen and for a product as LEVITH materials of course are of first grade quality.
Wiring
Lacquers
The counter can be produced in any colour you wish within the RAL or NCS colour scale – gloss 30.
It is possible to conceal in-frame wiring within all front modules enabling you to add electric or IT components according to your needs. For easy access, the backside of the lowest center module is mounted with 3-4 doors with brushes on top.
Shadow gap
Incorporated between center and side modules and side boxes. The 1x1 cm shadow gap comes in any finish material. Standard finishes are: black lacquer, counter colour, or stainless steel. Regardless of finish selected, all add a nice design accent.
Veneers
11
Flat cut veneers in the same width as the counter surface to give the counter as beautiful a structure and character as possible. Veneer is forth running on both center and sidemodules. As standard finishes we have chosen: Maple, ash, black stained ash, walnut and smoked oak.
