Width 120 Office Chair

Admin October 19, 2026

For an office chair with a width of 120 centimeters, the reserved space should be comprehensively considered based on both general standards and special product conditions.

General Reserved Space Requirements:
The reserved width behind and on the sides of an office chair should be at least 90 centimeters, with at least 60 centimeters reserved at the back and 15 centimeters on each side. This standard is designed based on ergonomics and daily usage scenarios: the 60 centimeters at the back ensures that users can get up, turn around, or adjust their sitting posture without hindrance; the 15 centimeters on each side prevents collisions with walls, furniture, or other office equipment while providing space for natural arm extension. If the width of the office chair is 120 centimeters (referring to the seat width), the reserved space behind and on the sides should still follow this standard, meaning the total occupied width may exceed the seat width itself, and actual layout planning should be considered.

Special Product Size Explanation:
There is an office chair called Binwang Ruili BS-0093, with dimensions marked as 1206480 (the unit is presumed to be centimeters). It should be clarified that these dimensions represent the length, width, and height of the office chair itself (the 120 centimeters in length may refer to the total length of the backrest and seat, the 64 centimeters in width is the seat width, and the 80 centimeters in height is the backrest height), not the reserved space dimensions. Therefore, the actual occupied space of this product should be based on the seat width of 64 centimeters, with 60 centimeters reserved at the back and 15 centimeters on each side according to the general standard. If the user refers to a "width of 120" as the seat width, the reserved space needs to be reassessed: 60 centimeters at the back remains unchanged, with 15 centimeters reserved on each side, resulting in a total occupied width of 120 + 15 + 15 = 150 centimeters, far exceeding the general reserved requirement of 90 centimeters. In this case, it may be necessary to adjust the office area layout or choose a more compact chair model.

Summary and Recommendations:

  1. If the width of the office chair is 120 centimeters (seat width), ensure that 60 centimeters are reserved at the back and 15 centimeters on each side, with a total occupied width of 150 centimeters. Measure the office area dimensions in advance.
  2. The 120-centimeter dimension of the Binwang Ruili BS-0093 refers to the product's own length. The reserved space should still be calculated based on the seat width of 64 centimeters, with 60 centimeters at the back and 15 centimeters on each side.
  3. When purchasing an office chair, it is recommended to first confirm the meaning of the product's dimension markings (whether it refers to the seat width) and then plan the layout in combination with the reserved space standards to avoid inconvenience caused by misunderstandings about dimensions.
