Then, you can swing it out closer to you when you need it and fold it back closer to the wall when it’s not in use. That’s a great thing, too, because it helps to protect the monitor from damage that it might incur when it sits on the desk. Things can get spilled on it, and it can get bumped and banged around. Instead of allowing that to happen, mount your monitor to the wall and it will be safe from all of that.

It’s also a great way to get it out of the way when you need to work on something else. Adjusting a monitor to the right height and distance from your eyes isn’t always easy, and when you don’t have it adjusted properly it can give you headaches and backaches, make your eyes tired, and make you very tense. Rather than fight with the monitor on your desk and try to get it right, just mount it to the wall and you can stop worrying about it because you’ll be able to adjust it perfectly.
