Monitor Accessories for a Better Desk Setup

Monitor accessories help you arrange your screen and make better use of your desk. Raise a monitor with a riser, adjust its position with an arm, or place two screens on one mount.

Right Tech Store lists monitor stands, single monitor arms, dual monitor mounts, and a portable display. Explore options from VIVO, ErGear, HUANUO, Amazon Basics, WALI, and WGK.

Start with your screen size, monitor weight, and desk measurements. These details help you choose an accessory that fits your equipment and available space.

Monitor Risers for Simple Screen Height Changes

A monitor riser is a raised platform that sits on your desk. You place the monitor on top using its existing base.

This can be a simple choice when you want more screen height without attaching a mount to the back of the monitor. Some risers also leave storage space underneath.

The Amazon Basics monitor stand riser offers three height settings. The WALI STT003 monitor riser also provides adjustable height with a metal platform.

Measure your monitor's base before ordering. It should rest securely on the usable top surface. Check the riser's weight limit as well as its width and depth.

If you want to store a keyboard underneath, measure that space separately. Not every riser has enough room for a full-size keyboard.

Single Monitor Arms for Flexible Positioning

A single monitor arm holds one screen and lets you change its position. Depending on the model, you can raise, lower, tilt, turn, or rotate the display.

An arm may suit a desk where you often move the screen closer or turn it to share your work. It can also remove the need for the monitor's original base.

Compare the HUANUO FlowLift single monitor arm and the ErGear single monitor arm. Check the supported screen sizes and weight range for each.

Look at how far the arm reaches and how high it lifts. Leave room behind the desk for its joints to move. A desk placed against a wall may limit some positions.

Dual Monitor Desk Mounts for Two Screens

A dual monitor desk mount holds two compatible displays. It can help you arrange both screens in one setup while reducing the space used by separate monitor bases.

This may be useful when you keep a document open on one screen and your main task on the other. Choose a mount that supports the position you want for both displays.

The VIVO STAND-V002 dual monitor mount and ErGear dual monitor desk mount use a central pole with adjustable arms.

The VIVO STAND-V002O dual monitor arm uses spring-assisted arms. Compare how each design adjusts before choosing.

Check the weight limit for each arm, not only the total weight of your setup. Both screens need to meet the mount's size, weight, and attachment requirements.

Freestanding Dual Monitor Stands

A freestanding monitor stand rests on the desk with a weighted base. It does not need a clamp around the desk edge.

The VIVO STAND-V002F dual monitor stand is listed for two compatible screens. Its base needs a clear, flat area on your desk.

Measure the base footprint and check the allowed screen positions. Keep the monitors within the positions described in the installation guide to maintain stability.

A freestanding design may suit a desk where the back edge is hard to reach. However, its base still takes up desk space, so plan where your keyboard and other items will sit.

How to Check Monitor Mount Compatibility

Find the VESA Mounting Pattern

VESA describes the spacing of mounting holes on the back of a monitor. Many listed arms support 75 by 75mm and 100 by 100mm patterns.

Check your monitor's guide for its mounting pattern. Screen size alone does not tell you whether an arm will fit.

Some screens have recessed mounting holes or unusual back shapes. Check whether extra hardware is needed and whether the mount supports that setup.

Check the Monitor's Weight

Use the weight of the screen without its removable factory stand when checking an arm's limit. You can usually find this in the monitor's specifications.

Spring-assisted arms may have both a minimum and maximum supported weight. A screen must fall within that range for the arm to work as intended.

Measure Your Desk

Check the desk thickness where the mount will attach. Also look underneath for drawers, frames, or panels that could block the fitting.

Read the mount maker's advice about desk materials. Do not assume every clamp is suitable for glass, hollow, or thin desktops.

Allow Space for Movement

Look at the arm's reach and the space behind your monitor. The screen should move without striking a wall, shelf, or nearby equipment.

Leave enough slack in the power and video cables. Tight cables can limit movement and pull on the monitor's ports.

Clamp Mounts and Grommet Mounts

A clamp mount grips the edge of a suitable desk. It needs enough clear space above and below that edge for the clamp to sit correctly.

A grommet mount fastens through a suitable hole in the desktop. Check the required hole size and desk thickness in the product guide.

Several listed mounts include both options. Choose the method that suits your desk and follow the instructions supplied with the exact model.

If neither method suits your furniture, compare a freestanding stand or a monitor riser instead.

Portable Monitors for an Extra Screen

A portable monitor gives you another display that you can move between workspaces. It may be useful beside a laptop when you want more room for open windows.

The WGK 15.6-inch portable monitor is listed with a Full HD screen, built-in stand, speakers, USB-C ports, and a mini HDMI connection.

Check your laptop's video output before buying. A USB-C port must support video for a direct USB-C display connection. A matching plug does not confirm that feature.

Read the monitor's power requirements and cable list too. Some connection methods may need a separate power cable.

For related connection products, browse our audio and video accessories. Match both ends of the cable to your devices.

Keep Your Desk Setup Easy to Use

Place the screen where you can read it without leaning forward or turning awkwardly. Adjust the height, distance, and angle to suit your seat and tasks.

Use the mount's cable clips where provided. Keep enough spare cable for movement while guiding loose wires away from your work area.

With two screens, think about which one you use most. Arrange them so your main work stays easy to see.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a monitor riser and an arm?

A riser supports the monitor on a raised platform using its existing base. An arm attaches to the monitor's mounting holes and offers different positioning options.

Will any monitor arm fit my screen?

No. Check the screen size, weight, VESA pattern, and back shape. Your monitor must meet all the mount's requirements.

Can I put two different monitors on one dual mount?

Possibly, if each screen meets its arm's limits. Also check whether the mount can place both displays at the heights and angles you need.

Do I need to drill my desk for a monitor mount?

Not always. A suitable clamp mount attaches at the desk edge. Freestanding stands and risers sit on the desktop without a mounting hole.

Can a monitor riser hold a laptop?

Some listed risers support laptops. Check the platform size, weight limit, and ventilation needs before placing your device on one.

Can I rotate my monitor into a vertical position?

Several listed mounts allow screen rotation. Confirm that the monitor has enough clearance and that your computer supports the display setting you want.

Will a portable monitor work with every USB-C laptop?

No. The laptop's USB-C port and cable must support the required video connection. Check the laptop and monitor guides before ordering.
