Fence Planning Guidelines
Fence is an independent 5" thick service wall
intended to define the center of a cluster or the
perimeter of a team space. Fence distributes
and manages power, data and communications
for a group of workspaces through the
use of convenient outlets, accessible cable
trays and slatwall. The unique Fence crown
supports the end of a desk, screens and
storage cabinets on stanchions in the center.
Fence can be specified at either 25" or
28 ½" high. The 25" horizon aligns with the
top of Antenna desk legs, enabling desk
support rails to extend above the Fence
crown top cap. The 28 ½" horizon aligns
with the top of a standard desk height top.
The crown top cap corresponds in thickness
and edge radius to an Antenna desk top.
Full or segmented covers to enclose the Fence
structure are available with a painted, laminate
or veneer surface. Full covers conceal the entire
Fence structure, ending at the underside of the
crown. Segmented Fence covers are available
as 9" high upper covers and 14" or 17" high
lower covers. Fence covers are available in
12" width increments up to 72" and may span
across straight frame-to-frame connections.
Fence can be configured in freestanding straight
runs in any combination of 4', 5', or 6' widths,
or in L, T, X, V or 120-degree Y connections.
Modular power systems available for Fence
connect to the building at any point under
the base and distribute either Knoll 2+2 or
3+3 electrical components up to six circuits
from a single infeed. The unique profile of
the frame and covers enables hundreds of
cables to be “laid in” across multiple frames.
Screens for Fence are available in heights
that create a horizon of 42" for seated
visual access or 49" for seated visual
privacy attaching to either 25" or 28 ½"
high Fence. Stanchion Mounted cabinets
are able to attach to Fence using stanchion
brackets, creating a 49" high horizon.
A Fence configuration consists of frames, legs,
stabilizer feet, crown top caps, end covers,
connectors, covers and power components.
The recommended planning sequence is:
1. Determine the overall length and height of
Fence frames and add legs/stabilizer feet
where required (see stability guidelines).
2. Specify crown top caps to trim the top of the
frame, flat ends for the ends of the frame and
connectors for frame-to-frame connections.
3. Position outlet covers, cable tray
and slatwall in desired location.
4. Fill in remaining frame openings with
upper, lower and/or full covers.
5. Complete power specifications with
outlet modules, duplex receptacles,
infeeds and jumper cables.
