Yes, thickness is important to your

for desk fixing selection. Atdec clamps have different desk thickness ratings, with the largest accommodating desks to 3.1 inches thick. Desks thicker than 3.1 inches don't suit clamping at all – in that case we recommend a
freestanding mount.

How much space does a dual monitor mount for desk really free up?
Dual monitor mounts for desks eliminate the native monitor stands from the desk which can free substantial space. Dual monitors with native stands occupy 8 to 12 inches of desk depth each, for example. Transitioning to a dual monitor mount reclaims the entire footprint, replaced by 2 to 4 inches of desk fixing at the far rear of the desk.
In addition to reclaiming space while the monitors are in use, dual monitor mounts for desks enable the monitors to be pushed to the far rear of the desk when not in use opening the desk for other endeavors.
Will a dual monitor mount for desk damage my desk?
Clamp fixings distribute pressure across the clamp footprint and should not damage a desk when properly installed. That is, in part, why desk clamps for heavier monitors and
multi-monitor setups have a larger footprint.
Desks constructed of very soft materials or thin veneers may show a slight compression from the clamp – if this is a concern, or if the desk is antique or glass topped, consider a
freestanding desk mount.
Can I install a dual monitor mount for desk myself or do I need a professional?
Simple installation process accessible to anyone comfortable with standard assembly tasks. Just use a screwdriver to connect the VESA plates to your monitors.
Comprehensive installation support and video tutorials are available from Atdec for selected models.
Do dual monitor mounts for desks require maintenance or adjustment over time?
Quality mounts require minimal maintenance. Mount tension may require adjustment if you change monitors or notice drift, but this is unusual and typically takes seconds. No lubrication or servicing is required during a normal service life. Atdec dual monitor mounts for desks have a 10 year warranty and many remain in the field well beyond that time.
