I need to mount this item on the wall, but vertically and not horizontal. Can the tray be mounted on the narrow side of the board vs the wide side? Thank you

The tray isn't exactly mounted to the board; it's more like a hinge that stays on the board when it is hung, because it is wedged between the board and the wall. So to answer your question, yes, you should be able to place the tray on the narrow side if that is how you decide to hang it.

Yes, those are the dimensions, but you can display it vertical or horizontal. It just depends on the space you want to hang it up in. I have mine horizontal so the cork board is side by side to the dry erase board.

William. I am looking at mine now and I don't see how you can do that without overlap. The tray is approx. 30 inches long and the narrow part of the white board is 24 inches. However, if the overlap doesn't bother you it can certainly be mounted.

No, this unit as shipped will not mount to a vertical surface. You may be able to find a different arm, or an additional part directly from the company.

It is designed for vertical mounting. The bottom plate only has a shallow groove in it. The skeg rests on top of this groove, it doesn't insert into it. However, I suppose it might be possible to mount a board horizontally using the two bracket pieces only (the pieces that look like hooks). That might require some sort of additional modification to keep the board up flat against the wall though. I've never considered the device as a horizontal mount before.

It goes left or right, or straight back/forward. You can also adjust the tray to sit at an angle. So yes, you can push the tray sideways either left or right, and keep it that way either extended or pushed in, with the main track installed. I have mine installed on a 17" desk and it works fine.

After folding the board in half, are you then turning it sideways (what would be the long side if not folded) to the wall before then folding it up to be perpendicular with the wall? If you fold it when it is straight out from the wall, and then attempt to lift it up to the wall, it won't go, because the wide end of the board hits the mounting bracket. Fold it in half, turn the board sideways to the wall, and then fold it up against the wall. That's how it's designed to work - mine has always worked wonderfully, and I love it!

Yes. You have to attach the tray when you get the board. I think you can have it right or left .

I believe it would be fine to mount it vertically. mine is horizontal, but I don't see anything that would prevent or prohibit from vertical.

My tray is mounted under a compressed board that is one inch thick. I've had no problems with it.

This item is useless to me, I wish I had not bought it. As one of the previous answers indicates, the tray is angled, it is not level. That means everything slides. I am saving it to see if I can salvage the pieces of it for other purposes, but it failed for use as a tray table. My advice is, do not buy.

I agree with the other answers - there is a small overhang, if you will, but the hutch (if you purchase it) aligns flush with it, so the desk would be essentially flush with the wall on either side. And the keyboard tray can be on the right, left or in the middle of the "L". Very happy with the product.

There's nothing that lends itself to easily attaching a wider tray to the top. The small tray that is on the ladder is designed mostly to hold screws, nails, etc...small "stuff." If you're creative you could probably design something to meet your needs, but my concern would be that unless it was attached VERY securing it would fall off or break with any moderate weight.

As far as I can remember there was no reason you couldn't do it either way. Our tray is on the left. If you google images I think you will find examples that show it both ways.

If you are just getting the tray you will need to fabricate an arm or mounting bracket. I would suggest the arm fthat is designed for the tray as well. It is a very nice combination.

We mounted this on the left side next to our toilet. I would not recommend installing it vertically. The mounting brackets are fantastic. My husband is a large man and it is VERY secure. We have bracket mounted into a stud and the right one into just drywall and it is extremely sturdy.

I don't think there is any limitation on the thickness of the tray board, it screws into the bottom side of the tray and nothing hits the top side. The screws into the rails do hit the sides of it a tad though as mentioned in my review.
