1Answer a few questionsEach tool opens with a guided setup — room size, bench width, hood application — so you start from a sensible design instead of a blank screen.
2Configure in live 3DEvery choice updates the model instantly. Dimensions, snapping and compatibility rules keep the design buildable — invalid combinations simply aren’t offered.
3Review the parts listThe specification summary and itemized parts list update as you work, using real manufacturer model numbers throughout.
4Save and shareSave your design to a link you can reopen, share with colleagues or revise later. Download a summary for your project file.
5Submit for a quoteSend the design to Labs USA with your contact details. Your full configuration, item list and render go straight to our sales team.
Which design tool should you start with?
Most lab projects touch more than one product. This guide matches common starting points to the right tool — and whichever tool you submit from, our team sees the full picture and will ask about the rest of the room.
| Your situation | Start here | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Planning a whole lab or relocating one | Lab Layout Designer | Place benches, hoods, sinks and cabinets in your actual room plan first, then detail individual products. |
| Building a controlled or classified space | Cleanroom Designer | Set dimensions, cleanliness goal, wall systems, doors, windows and airflow — reviewed by engineering before anything is final. |
| Outfitting workstations or replacing benches | Lab Tables & Bench Designer | Fixed, hand crank and motorized frames with shelving that snaps to real mounting positions. |
| Adding storage under the worksurface | Base Cabinet Designer | Door, drawer, sink, open, ADA and corner units that snap into a run and show the total run width. |
| Adding storage above the bench | Wall Cabinet Designer | Hinged, sliding, framed-glass and open wall units with safe mounting-height guidance. |
| Replacing or specifying a worksurface | Countertop Designer | Epoxy, phenolic, stainless, chemical-resistant laminate or butcher block with edges, backsplash, sinks and cutouts. |
| Working with chemicals or powders at a bench | Fume Hood Designer | Configure a Mystaire ductless hood with filtration and accessories — every design gets an application review. |
| Capturing fumes at a specific point | Exhaust Snorkel Designer | Pick a Movex arm, mounting and capture hood, and check the working radius over your bench. |
What happens after you submit a design
Submitting a design sends the complete configuration — every option, the itemized parts list and a render of your 3D model — to the Labs USA sales team, and emails you a copy for your records. A specialist reviews the design for buildability and suitability, then follows up with a formal quotation covering freight, lead time and any site requirements.
For the Fume Hood Designer and Exhaust Snorkel Designer, you’ll see an estimated equipment price as soon as you submit your contact information. The remaining tools produce an itemized request for quotation, and pricing comes back with your specialist’s response.
About estimates: estimated equipment price only. Shipping, freight, taxes, installation and site services are not included. Final pricing and product suitability are subject to review by Labs USA. Cleanroom designs are preliminary and subject to engineering review — classification and compliance depend on your process and site, not only the options selected.
Why design your lab online with Labs USA
Real products, not sketches
These tools are built directly on the manufacturer catalogs we sell from — laboratory furniture and casework, chemical-resistant worksurfaces, Mystaire ductless fume hoods and Movex exhaust snorkels. If the tool lets you pick it, it’s a real, current product with a real part number — no placeholders, no generic boxes.
Compatibility is enforced for you
Shelves snap to valid mounting positions. Cabinets join into runs at published widths. Wall units can’t overlap or land at unsafe heights. Hood accessories are filtered to the models they actually fit. The tools carry the catalog rules so you don’t have to cross-reference spec sheets.
A designer is behind every submission
Every design that reaches us is reviewed by a person before it becomes a quote. And if you’d rather not self-serve — or your project spans cleanrooms, benches and casework together — Labs USA offers free lab design services: send us your room and requirements and our designers will do the layout with you.
Laboratory design tools FAQ
Are these laboratory design tools really free?
Yes. Every tool on this page is free to use, with no login, account or software download required. You configure your product in the browser, and if you want pricing or a formal proposal you submit the design to our team — that part is optional.
Do I need CAD experience to use them?
No. Each tool opens with a short guided setup that asks a few plain-language questions about your project, then drops you into a live 3D view with simple controls — rotate, zoom and reset. Every option is a labeled control, not a drawing command, so lab managers, facilities teams and researchers can use them without any CAD background.
Are the products in the tools real?
Yes. The configurators are built on current manufacturer catalogs — laboratory furniture and casework, Mystaire ductless fume hoods and Movex extraction arms — and only offer combinations those catalogs support. The itemized parts list on your design uses real manufacturer model numbers, so what you design is what our team can actually quote and order.
Will I see pricing in the tools?
It depends on the product. The Fume Hood Designer and Exhaust Snorkel Designer show an estimated equipment price after you submit your contact information; the estimate covers equipment only — shipping, freight, taxes, installation and site services are not included, and final pricing and product suitability are subject to review by Labs USA. The cabinet, countertop, bench and cleanroom tools produce an itemized request for quotation, and our team responds with a firm quote.
Can I save a design and share it with colleagues?
Yes. Every tool can save your design and give you a link you can reopen later or send to a colleague, and you can download a summary of the configuration. When you submit a design, you also receive an emailed copy with the full item list.
Is my cleanroom design ready for construction?
No — and that is deliberate. The Cleanroom Designer produces a preliminary design that captures your dimensions, cleanliness goal, wall and ceiling systems, doors, windows, filtration and airflow requirements. Every cleanroom design is reviewed by engineering before anything is finalized, because classification and compliance depend on your process, equipment loads and site conditions, not just the options you pick.
What if my project needs several of these products together?
Start with the Lab Layout Designer to plan the whole room, or submit any single-product design and mention the rest in the project notes. Labs USA also offers free lab design services — our designers will lay out the complete space with you, using the same real product lines these tools are built on.
Do the tools work on a phone or tablet?
Yes. All ten tools run in the browser and are fully responsive on desktop, tablet and mobile, with keyboard-accessible controls and accessibility labels throughout.
Warehouse Design & Build-to-Order Tools
For warehouse storage and material-handling projects, use these specialist tools. Product selection, checkout and quote follow-up continue through each tool’s existing workflow.
Build Your Own Layout
Prefer to design it with a person?
Our lab designers do this every day — free. Send us your room dimensions and what the space needs to do, and we’ll come back with a layout, product recommendations and an itemized quote. Or call us and we’ll walk through it live.
