Looking a building a custom sit/stand desk as I'm not happy with the standard desk panes they offer.

I'm currently looking at the following frames to mount the desk on

There are a couple of key differences based on specs

Locktek has a 5 year warranty but lower weight rating and a two stage range
Brateck has a single year warranty but a hight weight rating with a 3 stage range.

Anyone here with experience with their desks that could provide feedback as I've been unable to find any decent reviews online.

Can't comment on this specifically, but have used tons of brateck display mounts and they've always been rock solid.

I've had the Bratek one for a couple of months and am really happy with it. The kids mucked around with it a bit on Day 1 and it stopped working for 10 mins while it cooled down. I considered this far enough.
