Truck Desk Solutions

By: Merv Carlson

Computer usage in trucks is moving at warp speed and there is a growing demand for truck laptop mounting equipment. The solution is a truck desk laptop mounting solution.

Laptop desks like the Enforcer attach to the seat bolts, and fits in all the Ford pickups as well as all the Cheverolet, GMC, Toyota and Nissan. This will provide a sturdy, durable work environment so the user can use a laptop easily, and creates a mobile office environment. With this application there is no need for drilling screws or using brace legs like the Jotto for stability. The engineering design of the Enforcer is such that this mount enables the truck laptop desk to mount to the front two passenger seat bolts and does not interfere with foot space. The mount can be easily installed by one person with the aid of a ratchet set. Once the base is in place the vertical tube and rod can be positioned and tightened with the ease of a ratchet handle.

Enforcer or Extreme by Pro-Desks come standard and do not require an additional rod, the standard extension rod which enables the desktop to clear the center console. A two piece articulating arm is then attached which extends horizontally for driver use. The main desktop is constructed of durable ABS plastic and can pivot up to 90 degrees, and turns 360 degrees for optimumal positioning. It comes with neoprene foam pads which have two advantages. One is shock absorption or vibration dampening while driving, and another is creating passive air flow for the cooling fans.

Screen holders come in mighty handy when your using GPS software on your laptop and using it as a navigational tool. The screen holder stablizes the screen as your crusing down the road.

The base is under the seat, and the vertical assembly comes up beside the left leg of the passenger, space is not lost this way, nor seat movement. Either the driver or passenger can use the laptop due to the hundreds of positions the desktop can be set at. The range of motion is controlled by self-ratcheting handles on all of the pivot points. The positions are changed easily and quickly with this unique system.

Before the desks were in place, most computers were either in the passenger seat, the back seat, the console, or in a travel bag on the floor, definitley not in a useable fashion.The integrity of the lap top is then compromised, and the cost of replacement will be substantially higher than the initial cost of the mounting system. The desktop can swing out of the way of the airbags, and the driver doesn't have to twist around to use their laptop so there is less chance of missed man-hours due to strain or injury.

This laptop auto desk has endured many years of rigorous testing with industries ranging from police, construction, and oilfield to name a few. The Pro Desks Enforcer mount can be used for years, with the same base working in the previous six years of Super Duty trucks since there is no change in the floor pattern.

Tough. The Enforcer II is the strongest, most durable truck auto desk on the market, designed for those who must have the best tools to tackle the toughest situations.
