    I want my desktop monitor to get out of my way when I am not using it. But I can't use monitor wall arm since my landlord will not let me drill any holes on the wall or stick anything on the wall. What is my alternative?

    Will it let me rotate the monitor 180 degrees backward? I want it to get out of my way.

    Tell your landlord, Dook said it's ok to drill.
