Let (P, ) be a (nearly) uniform ordered space. Let (P, ) be the uniform completion of (P, ) at . Several partial orders for P are introduced and discussed. One of these orders provides an adjoint to the functor which embeds the category of uniformly complete uniform ordered spaces in the category of uniform ordered spaces, both categories with uniformly continuous order-preserving functions. When P is a join-semilattice with uniformly continuous join, two of these orders coalesce to the unique partial order with respect to which P is a join-semilattice, P is a join-subsemilattice of P, and the join on P is continuous.
