It looks like there is a front plate on the keyboard tray to make it look nice, how much does it stick up from the deck of the keyboard tray?

I'd put it around 3/8", maybe 1/2". It is worth noting that it makes long sessions on the computer uncomfortable.

It is half an inch or so. Though it is tried to be softer wood but could be a little problem for some depending on how much you pull out the tray; manageable though. I don't use it for keyboard so can't comment much.

Ashlyn - The keyboard tray extends exactly 11.5" from the front face (doors open, not included in measurement) of the armoire. And, that front face is 18.25" from the back face. You might also be interested in knowing that the doors' swinging radius, 17.125", is **greater** than the distance the keyboard extends from the front open face. Hope this info helps.

The keyboard tray *IS* the drawer, going the full depth of the desk. Set an organizer on it instead of a keyboard, and you have a nice drawer.

It doesn't have a keyboard tray. I never saw where I could order one when I bought it.

Yes. Installation of the keyboard tray is a step in the normal installation. If you dont want to install it, there is nothing that depends on its installation.

In a word YES! The layout of the board is just flat bad. It was a mistake to purchase it. I have since gifted it to a young neighbor and purchased another keyboard for myself.

From the floor to the top is 28 inches and from the floor to the keyboard is 20-1/2 inches. I felt that it was easy to assemble just by following the instructions. What I did different was the keyboard tray. Because it does not come out that far, I adjusted the tray a little for it to come out enough where you can be comfortable typing on the keyboard. So, in other words, instead of putting the screw in the pre-drilled holes, move the tray out a little further then pre-drill new holes and put the screws there.

I took my measurement along the side of the keyboard when pulled out a little and I got 26" from floor to top of keyboard. I didn't measure at the front of the keyboard because the front edge is slightly beveled and it felt like I would have had to guess how much higher the actual top of the keyboard was. Hope this helps.

You can place the unit right up the edge of the desktop or extend it a few inches off the front of the desk if you need to. The keyboard tray has its own dual rail slide and support mechanism and does not touch the desktop. This unit is nice and compact, you can put your monitor on top. It is durable metal construction (the keyboard tray is durable plastic). Good quality.

Yes, there is only one set of bars that will hold the keyboard tray. So you need to be careful to make sure you put those bars on the other side.

I don't know what you mean by deck? You can raise the shelf to where the keyboard sits about 3 1/4 inches below the top of the desk. It also goes a little lower to about 5 inches. It is an excellent keyboard shelf--very sturdy. Hope this helps.

You know what, I just measured mine just now at its thickest point near the rear end of the keyboard, and it only amounts to slightly under 2 and 3/4 inches. The 3.5" measurement seems a little high to me.

I recently installed this keyboard and found that there is only a very small additional dimension needed beyond the 23 1/2" keyboard. My desk has less than a two inch gap on either side of the keyboard. The hardware slide and mounting brackets on each side take up somewhere around 1 1/4 - 1 1/2" beyond the wood of the keyboard on each side. This is a very compact installation. The quality of both the wood and steel hardware is very well made and the slide mechanism operates smoothly and has a very solid feel - much better than the plastic keyboard drawers I'd been used to before buying this one. I am very pleased with this purchase. I hope this helps you. I recently installed this keyboard and found that there is only a very small additional dimension needed beyond the 23 1/2" keyboard.

This attaches to the desk. It does not sit in front of the desk. I have mine attached at the corner of my L-Shaped desk so the main part of the setup is on the desk. The only part that protrudes out is my keyboard as it is at an angle.

Penny,When I lined this up with my desktop keyboard, the amount of space allocated to the Q through P row was slightly larger on this keyboard. So it's slightly more spacious than the keyboard for my desktop if you don't count the missing number pad and home, del, pg up, pg down keys.

The spot where the keyboard sits in mine measures 20.75 inches wide and 10 inches front to back. Mine measures 2 & 15/16 inches from the bottom of the desk to the tray. I'm using the middle setting on the bracket so you could get about another half inch of clearance by using the bottom setting.

I agree with my fellow purchaser below which I incorporate here in it's entirety: "The front is raised by 1/4" and the back is raised by 1 5/8". The front 1/4" raise is when you place the keyboard down into the stand so that the keyboard does not slip off of the stand. If if keyboard is placed on top of the front of the stand, then the keyboard would be raised 5/8" at the front." Ibid.
