Herman Miller Action Ofce
The Action Ofce 1, 2 and 3 series manufactured by Herman Miller is another common furniture system.
Action Ofce was introduced in the mid 1960’s and since that time it has experienced several evolutions
and improvements.
Action Ofce is considered a rigid hinge system and can be very smooth to go through if the system has
been installed correctly. It would not hurt to randomly check a number of the hinge connections to make
sure the are connected tightly. If they appear lose or not connected tightly you may want to use an allen
wrench to tighten things up.
Your components will be panel hung with this system and will in many cases create some challenges for
jack placement. Take your time and you will nd them.
You will be lifting with mostly the universal clips (center, left and right). You may nd some rare times
that you will need the universal shoe. Your universal clips are a little longer for this system. In order to
lock your clips in place, you will be placing them in at a slight angle.
Herman Miller has a rigid panel connection. Panels are attached using a set of wedge blocks that can be
loosened or tighten using an alien wrench.
