PC wall mounts are easy to install and provide strong support for any setup. Depending on how you want to mount your PC or workstation, there are various methods for setting up your computer. This includes mounting your PC to a wall, under a desk, on a monitor, or any flat surface. Whether you want to wall mount your computer at home or in your office, a PC wall mount will improve your workspace efficiency and organization.
What is a PC Wall Mount?
A PC wall mount is a specialized bracket or fixture designed to securely attach a computer to a wall, desk, or flat surface. This particular setup will help you save desk space, improve airflow around your PC, and reduce dust accumulation.
For those who want a more organized and streamlined workspace, a wall mount is the perfect solution for having easier access to your PC for maintenance and cleaning. By wall mounting your PC, you can also protect your PC from potential damage due to accidents or overheating issues.
What are the Benefits of Mounting Your PC?
Mounting a PC on the wall has numerous benefits for both the user and the system itself. Whether you work remotely at home or in the office, every workspace can benefit from freeing up space while maintaining device protection and organization. When a PC is positioned on the floor, it typically accumulates contaminants and dirt both on and inside the case. Even though a wall-mounted setup won’t entirely prevent this buildup, it will at least minimize most of it. Mounting your PC to the wall offers several benefits, including:
- Clear Desk Space: Frees up desk space to create a more clean and organized workspace.
- Improve Airflow: Helps with better ventilation and cooling as it allows more space around the PC for air to circulate.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Provides a modern and sleek look in your home or office environment.
- Reduce Dust Accumulation: Keeps the PC off the floor, reducing the amount of dust and debris that can get into the system.
- Improve Convenience: Makes it easier to access the PC’s ports and components for maintenance or upgrades without having to move it.
- Additional Security: Mounting can provide additional security against theft or accidental damage from being knocked over.
- Customize Setup: Allows for personalized setups depending on your work environment.
- Reduce Noise: Helps reduce noise if mounted away from your immediate working area.

Where to Mount Your PC
Wall mounts allow you to eliminate clutter, save space, improve airflow, and more. So what are the best locations to mount a work computer based on your work environment?
Home
For starters, it can be hard to keep up with appearances when working from home. When seeing a cluttered workspace environment, it can affect your performance. To promote productivity, it’s important to clean and free up space. By mounting your computer under your desk or to the wall, your device becomes less obtrusive yet still easy to reach.
Office
Secondly, office environments are filled with countless desks, chairs, computers, cables, machines, and more. This leads to potential problems such as clutter and various tangled cables, especially in shared workspaces. If you don’t wall mount your PC, then you can mount your PC on the underside of your desk if there is space. For offices that utilize mini form factor computers such as the Dell Optiplex Micro, you can also mount it directly to the backside of your monitor. Most monitors feature a VESA pattern, which is a set of four holes in a square. Furthermore, you can check out How To Install Your Dell OptiPlex Micro PC for more information.
Ultimately, the placement of your PC wall mount depends on your personal preference or workspace needs.
