Level™ by SMARTdesks™ LCD Monitor Desks

Is it a computer or is it a desk?™ By simply pulling out the keyboard/mouse platform, SMARTdesks™ patented Level™ mechanism rotates open to present up to a 20" semi-recessed LCD monitor positioned ideally within your field-of-view. With the LCD display just below the horizon line yet within the field of view, students maintain an unobstructed line-of-sight to teacher and classroom presentations.

Level™ is like no other workstation you have ever seen. When a clear worksurface is desired for traditional classroom tasks, rotate the Level™ monitor panel and the LCD screen is out of sight and out of the way. And, like all SMARTdesks™, LV Series workstations locate the CPU case below the worksurface and conceal and protect cables and connections.

SMARTdesks™ Semi-Recessed LCDs are ideal for independent CBT (computer-based training). Students are comfortable over long sessions at the computer because the LCD screen is visible from any position - making shared computing and tutoring easier and noticeably maximizing concentration and visual ergonomics - even for bi-focal wearers.

FI Series Desks provide plenty of legroom whether open or closed. and the pull-out keyboard/mouse platform with slide-to-side mousing platform accommodates most input devices handily.

SMARTdesks™ workstations conceal and protect cables from monitor to CPU and from desk to desk to wall or floor with a full-height modesty panel (vented at top and bottom) supporting a wiring channel and optional power strip, and full-depth side panels with access grommets.
Angle connectors and extended top sizes are available to allow a variety of connected configurations (use our Classroom Design Questionnaire for room layouts and cost).

Several models for younger students may be specified with keyboards and mice on the desktop (without pullout platforms) to reduce floor space requirements and mechanical components; offering even greater economy and durability. Three heights are available for grades K - adult in single and double station configurations (go to Custom Products Request).
For increased leg-room and/or reduced station width, narrower CPU bays may be requested for "thin client" and "small-form" cases or the CPU/storage bays may be eliminated if you are using "all-in-one" computers like Apple's eMAC®.

SMARTdesks™ exclusive Convertible CPU Bays accommodate tower or desktop cases optimizing room on the desktop for books and paperwork. Standard tower and convertible bays may be specified with optional rear access panels or locking hinged doors to facilitate access to rear of CPU cases.

Additional CPU bay options including adjustable storage shelves and pull-out shelves, utility drawers, writing tablet surfaces and more. Check out our Standard Options Catalog or for special requirements use the Custom Product Request.
