This side-mounted storage unit is designed to hold laptops and tablets vertically, freeing up surface area on busy desks. The frame is built from 2.0mm cold-rolled carbon steel, providing a stable housing that resists bending even when supporting larger 16-inch laptops. The powder-coated finish adds a layer of protection against daily wear, while the open-frame design helps monitor device temperatures by allowing for natural airflow around the exhaust vents.
The mounting system uses an adjustable clamp compatible with desk thicknesses between 1cm and 4cm. Specifications indicate that the clamp includes EVA foam padding, which helps protect the desk surface from scratches during installation. To maintain the most secure fit over several months of use, it is helpful to occasionally check the tension of the screw clamp as the foam padding naturally settles. Practical considerations include:
- Integrated side cup for pens or small accessories.
- Slotted design that acts as a guide for charging cables.
- Quick-release mechanism for moving the unit between different workstations.
Because the unit is made of steel, it remains rigid under the heat generated by a working laptop. It is most effective on desks with a flat, non-beveled edge. If the side-mounted pen holder is heavily loaded while the main tray is empty, the unit may show a slight lateral tilt, so balanced loading is recommended for optimal stability.
For users who need to organize power strips and tangled cords alongside their devices, the mesh cable management tray offers a broader footprint for wire containment.
