How to install StarTech.com Sit Stand Monitor Arm

Preparing your workspace for a sit-stand setup begins with choosing the right mounting method and then assembling the arm with your monitor. Start by clearing a comfortable area at your desk and gathering the included hardware. If you’re mounting to a desk with a thick edge, the clamp option provides a secure grip without drilling. For thicker desks or a more permanent solution, the grommet mount secures the arm through a desk hole and offers excellent stability. Ensure the desk surface is clean and free of debris before installation.

1) Attach the mounting plate to your monitor. Remove the existing stand from your monitor if applicable. Align the monitor’s VESA holes with the mounting plate and secure with the appropriate screws supplied in the package.

2) Connect the monitor to the arm. Depending on the model, you may slide the monitor onto the VESA plate or secure it with adjustable screws. Tighten the screws just enough to hold the monitor firmly without restricting motion.

3) Mount the arm to the desk. If using the clamp, loosen the clamp, position it over the desk edge, and tighten firmly until the arm is stable. If using the grommet option, insert the pole through the desk hole and secure with the included hardware. Ensure there is no desk movement when you apply torque.

4) Attach the keyboard tray. Slide the tray into the designated track or mounting bracket and adjust its angle and depth to align with your keyboard and preferred typing posture. The tray should sit comfortably at elbow height when you’re seated, with enough clearance for comfortable forearm support.

5) Route cables and fine-tune alignment. Use the integrated cable channels to guide monitor power, video, and USB cables. Adjust the monitor height, tilt, swivel, and rotation to reach an optimal ergonomic position—your eyes should align with the top third of the screen when seated, reducing neck strain. Finally, test the switch between sitting and standing to confirm smooth transitions and stable tracking of the monitor during height changes.

With the installation complete, you’ll enjoy a streamlined, adaptable workspace that supports longer, more comfortable work sessions. The StarTech.com Sit Stand Monitor Arm is designed to be intuitive to assemble and easy to adjust, making it a practical upgrade for homes, offices, and coworking spaces alike.
