I want to mount the board vertically- is the marker tray removable? I don't need it.

Absolutely. You don't install the marker tray until you've already mounted the board. Even then, it just snaps on and off. As an aside, I've had this board for I think four years now, and the quality is superb. The only issue I had is on some areas of the board the dots that make the grid pattern weren't visible, but that wasn't a feature I required. Dollar for dollar, this is one of the best purchases I've made.

Yes, but the mounting brackets will likely not be happy about that orientation

It's been about three years since I disassembled my board, so my memory may not be correct. But my memory is that the marker tray is removable. I don't recall what that edge of the board looks like without the tray attached.

Unfortunately, while the board itself can be mounted either way, the supplied tray is too long to mount on the short side. Unless the manufacturer has changed the product, the tray measures 28.25" and the short side is 24".

I suppose you could assemble it without the tray but it is so handy I would not remove it now for any reason. The tray is attached to slider rails on the bottom by two screws on each side and can be removed easily. The desk seems to be steady enough when the tray is pulled out all the way, so I doubt that the tray is making a lot if difference. The desk is beautiful and very handy to use, I love mine just the way it is.

Sorry, not sure. It was a gift purchase. I know that the person I got if for really liked it. It can be used both horizontally and vertically. Good luck.

The board is designed to be hung horizontally with "clips" formed into frame. If hardware were purchased separately I feel it could be hung vertically. Hope this helps. Great size board for price.

Yes. You can mount it with the edge holders and it will slide out. If you mount it with the stickies it will still come off with a bit of tugging but remounting it will be a little more complicated. You'll probably have to use new stickies if you want to remount and certainly if you want to flip it over and use the other side instead (one side is glossy and the other is matte).

It does have keyhole slots for wall mounting it horizontally, but I don't see any way to mount it vertically. No real need, anyway, because I also don't see any way to have the pix displayed for vertical orientation. The stand for setting the frame on a flat surface is okay, but not real stable.

The marker holder is fixed to the bottom of the board. I'm afraid it could not be moved. It is more of a tray than a holder, but you can always get velcro and attach a small piece to the pens and to the board. Hope this helps!

No, it is not removable, at least not from my perspective. There are no screws or mounting points, tabs, etc. There is a very tight space of a couple of millimeters between the platform and the base. The best part I've found is that if you use the plastic case as a tray, whatever you measure will not ever have a chance to get into the sides and cause the need for a cleaning under the platform. I've had mine for several weeks now and it still looks brand new despite it measuring several pounds of coffee by now.

I have mine mounted horizontally, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't mount it vertically.

The tray is useable off the edge of the desk surface. I do that b/c I have a severe lack of space.

Yes. The tray is removable. There are set screws at the mounting platform and the tray. Once the mounting platform is removed, the tray can be slid off the top.

Yes it is optional..but you don't have to worry about it. They do not provide all of the pieces to install this tray(missing screws). They provided me with 2 sets of another type of screw which I did not need instead.Enjoy

From what I can tell is that it is clamps only. I'd love to use the tray to but with all the hardware angles it is basically clamp. If you are handy you might come up with something but I haven't.

Yes - it can be removed. It is just held in place by two holes in the board whereupon the small trim piece has two protruding sections that go in the holes. It can actually be removed easily if turned upside down (happened a few times). I actually wish it wasn't removable but I guess this would be useful for others.

You can mount it directly on the plate, but I don't recommend that method. The free quick release plate will be good enough or you can use your own.

You could probably rig it so that it could be hung that way without too much effort, but the way it comes is set up to be hung horizontally. Especially considering that the chalk tray isn't easily removable.
