Office & Productivity · Under-Desk Keyboard Trays
Do I need to drill into my desk to install a keyboard tray?
Reviewer consensus
No. Clamp-on (C-clamp) trays like the VIVO MOUNT-KB05E and BONTEC KMT01 attach without drilling and are the most common choice for renters or anyone uncomfortable putting holes in their desk. Drill-mounted trays from brands like 3M tend to be sturdier and offer more adjustability, but they require a desktop thick enough to take screws and a surface you don't mind modifying.
