Console Dimensions

I receive many requests regarding organ console dimensions. I thought it would be useful to host 2 documents that have proved to be of value. The first was created by the Wicks Organ Company.  It was originally hosted on their own web site but the link has been removed. It contains a significant error. The text is accuate, but the drawing shows the height of the manuals over the pedalboard as 29.5″ from the pedalboard playing surface to the playing surace of the middle keyboard. This is incorrect, you would never be able to get your knees under the keyboards! The dimension is 29.5″ from the pedalboard playing surface to the playing surface of the lower keyboard. Wicks AGO Console Dimensions.

The next document was drawn by Clive Sidney in 2003 and details British Organ Console Dimensions – . Recommended Standard 1967. British RCO Console Dimensions.

Finally I have a document simply labeled Hill Norman and Beard.
