Can I screw mount this under the desk, or must I use the clamps? I like the tray, but not the looks of those clamps. Thx.

The clamps go on the front of the desk. I think this one's for people who can't use screws.

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.

I just took a look at one of those desks and have to say that the answer is NO.You are asking for trouble as the only way to mount it would be with the clamp coming into contact with the glass somehow.You might be better off getting the wall mount version of this mount if that would work for you?LX Wall Mount LCD Arm

That depends on how you mount the tray. if your desk is deep enough (front to back) you can certainly mount the tray such that it will go completely underneath. With that said, it could potentially restrict the upward range of motion when fully extended.

My desk is pretty close to the wall, I had to slide the mount into place from the side to get it onto the desk. As for the L Clamp, I'm using the bottom two holes, and i had to crawl under my desk and screw in both bolts to clamp down on the desk. There is no way to modify or change the physical mounting point to the desk and how it functions that I am aware of. My desk has a back board, but it is recessed to create a lip that I was able to clamp onto. I wish I could take pictures to explain but, the top surface of the desk is only about 2 inches from the wall, the back board is maybe about 4 inches give or take from the wall. Hope that helps somewhat!

Yes you can mount this along any edge of the desk. If the desktop is then particleboard, I would sandwich a couple thin pieces of wood to spread out the weight distribution.

Yes. There's nothing special about the mounting. It's just a flat metal piece on bottom, and a cylinder with a threaded hole in the bottom. I wouldn't do it on a wooden desk because the force would probably either indent the desk and bend the wood or something, but it can definitely be done.

The basic setup for it is to be clamped to something. I am not sure of the material that you have on the side of your desk, but the bottom portion of the clamp could be omitted and instead you drill holes through the side of your desk to then bolt it through the side instead of clamping to the top. If you do that make sure that the desk material is substantial enough to hold the weight of the stand and your monitors. If not, it would be easy enough to add a waste board inside your desk to spread the weight and make it stronger.

I am not sure as both my desks already had holes in them for cords and such, but here is what I found on their website:Mounting Options: Desk Clamp attaches to surface edge .4" to 2.4" (10 to 60 mm) thick; Grommet Mount attaches through surface holes .31" to 2" (8 to 50 mm) wide and up to 3" (76 mm) thick http://www.ergotron.com/ProductsDetails/tabid/65/PRDID/523/language/en-US/Default.aspx

You can attach it any way you want. It comes in a small box in like 4-5 pieces. So you put it together the way it fits under your desk.

It uses right angle metal brackets to secure it from the underside of the surface you are mounting it to. So you need something to bite into from the bottom of your mounting surface. I suppose you can tack weld it if you had to or somehow mount a wooden braces on the underside of the metal desk. You only need a small like 1/4" screw.

You'd need a stud finder and drill into the studs. This is actually great because you can get a really sturdy hold on the desk. That said, you'd need a stud-finder and drill as well as the right kinda screws.

Yes, the tray slides completely under the desk. I really like this tray. It's made well and allows my keyboard and mouse to easily be stowed under the desk and out of my way.

JNO,The trays are held on with 2 thumb screws on the back side. These can be loosened up to allow you to get underneath the tray.Than you!

I obviously don't have the screws available to look at as they are in the desk. However that is a normal desktop thickness so I don't anticipate any issues. If you purchase this device you can measure the screws and if they are too long replace them with shorter ones, or introduce a few flat washers so they don't go in as far.

Sorry for the delayed response. I needed to look at the tray to be sure of my response and was out of town. The depth (distance from underside of desk) is adjustable. It appears to be able to acocomodate your dimensions. I will caution you that this is not an easy tray to mount. I have bought several different models, all but this one have many adjustments as to tilt, swing and slide. This is the lease adjustable tray I have purchased and I would say probaly the most difficult to install. In my application, I had to completely assemble the tray and hold it to the underside of the desk to mark the location so that I would be able to make sure it was not obstructed or it obstructed other desk functions. I only had a small area to install this due to the desk configuration. If you have plenty of space to install the tray, it may not present the same issues. It would also be helpful if you had someone to assist with the installation.

The arm has a pin that sets down into the table clamp. If you don't use the clamp, I don't know how you would mount it.

Yes, the tray slides under the desk. I really like the flexibility of this tray
