How to measure the outside dimension
of your monitors
When measuring the width of your monitors for
use with any of our LCD monitor mounts, the "horizontal, outside
dimension" is used. See example below:
Monitor Sizes: The monitor
industry has confused consumers a bit as your monitor size is referenced by
"diagonal" dimensions when they do their marketing. For example when you buy
a 19" monitor it is 19" measured diagonally not horizontally,
technically speaking this is known as the "Z axis'.
Monitor Mounts: If you are
looking at our LCD monitor mounts, the specifications state that they support
up to a certain number of displays measuring so many inches across "horizontally,
outside dimension". This is NOT the same as a 19" LCD monitor
classification as mentioned above.

Example 1: Our
6 monitor mount supports up to six
displays each measuring up to 24"
(horizontally, outside dimensions) or a total
allowance of 72" overall (24" x 3 =72")
across for each row.
So your overall horizontal
allowance for the stand is 72". You can use most any
combination of monitors not exceeding overall
outside dimensions of 72" for each row for three
monitor across. |

Example 2: Lets say you have six
Viewsonic 19" monitors each measuring 17.3" horizontal, outside
dimensions. 17.3" x 3 = 51.9" overall for three monitors across. The
stand supports a total of 57" overall so 6 of these monitors will fit on
this stand (two rows of three).
Example 3: You have 72" to play with
overall so you can mix different size monitors not to exceed overall spec of
the stand. In this example, for each row you could have a larger monitor,
lets say a Viewsonic 22" (measuring 20.1" horizontal, outside) in the
CENTER and a 19" (measuring 17.3" horizontal, outside) on each side.
17.3" + 20.1" + 17.3" = 54.7", with a plenty to spare.
This same formula applies to all of our monitor stands
when calculating whether or not your monitors (or ours if purchased from us)
will fit on the chosen monitor stand. If you have any questions about this
