How to Plan Your Desk Setup Upgrades

When you upgrade a home office desk, fixing posture trouble spots in the right order brings the fastest relief from neck, back, and wrist pain. Based on workplace safety rules, we suggest upgrading your gear in three simple steps:

1. Raise Your Screen to Eye Level (Monitor Arms & Laptop Stands)

Looking down at a low laptop or monitor bends your neck forward and strains your upper back. If you use an external screen, start with our Monitor Arms & Dual Mounts to put the top third of your display at eye level and free up desk space. If you work on a laptop, pair one of our Adjustable Laptop Stands with a separate keyboard.

2. Keep Your Wrists Straight (Ergonomic Keyboards & Mice)

Flat mice twist your forearm bones, and flat keyboards bend your wrists outward. Switching to a 57-degree vertical mouse or a split keyboard from our Ergonomic Keyboards & Mice guide takes pressure off your wrist nerves right away.

3. Switch Between Sitting and Standing (Desk Converters & Docks)

Moving between sitting and standing every 30 to 45 minutes boosts blood flow and eases lower back pressure. Our Standing Desk Converters let you stand at your current desk without buying new furniture. Finally, our USB-C Docking Stations link your power, dual 4K screens, and wired internet through one clean cable.
