Through-desk Mount for Fellowes Chicago Monitor Arms
The through-desk mount for Fellowes Chicago monitor arms enables an especially stable and space-saving installation of the monitor arm directly through the desktop. This type of mounting is ideal for workstations where a classic desk clamp cannot be used or where a particularly secure installation is desired. With through-desk mounting, the monitor arm is passed through an existing or newly drilled opening in the desktop and securely fastened from below. This creates an extremely robust connection between the desk and the monitor arm. At the same time, the desk edge remains free, which is particularly advantageous for modern office workspaces or desks with cable grommets.
Installation is simple and quick. The mounting unit is placed on the desktop from above, while the sturdy counterplate is attached from below and then fixed with a threaded rod and star knob. By tightening the screw, the mount is clamped securely against the desktop, ensuring a stable hold of the monitor arm. The through-desk mount was specially developed for monitor arms of the Fellowes Chicago series and offers a clean, ergonomic, and durable installation solution for office workspaces and home office environments. Particularly in professional work environments, this mounting type provides maximum stability and a tidy appearance for the workstation. Thanks to the robust metal components, this mount is excellently suited for ergonomic monitor workstations with Chicago monitor arms and offers a reliable alternative to the classic desk clamp.

This type of mounting – also called through-desk mounting or grommet mount – is frequently used in modern office environments because it allows a secure and visually clean installation.
Unlike a classic desk clamp, the mount is guided through an existing or newly drilled opening in the desktop and then firmly screwed from underneath. This creates a stable connection between the desk and the monitor arm.
The through-desk mount provides a professional appearance at the workstation while offering maximum stability for the mounted monitor arm.

The mount is particularly suitable for:
- workstations with an existing cable pass-through in the desk
- modern height-adjustable desks
- ergonomic monitor workstations
- installations with high stability requirements
The firm screwing under the desktop ensures a particularly secure and durable mounting.
