I bought two of these for my new Friant Gitana home office desk system. The mahogany finish is an exact match, and looks great. Well made unit, measures nominal 15" x 25.5". Now, about the installation, I am a very experienced home remodeler, not professional mind you, but very experienced, and I must say, because the unit is so heavy, it is very difficult to install. The difficulty lies in not how it attaches, which is by 8 Phillips head screws to the underside of the desk, but in keeping it positioned accurately while you attach it. Even with two people it is difficult, and I am picky, wanting the installed result to be square with the desktop and not look like a child installed it. Anyway, I came up with a solution that worked well for me, and did not take two people. That is, I measured from the floor to the underside of the tray in the "installed " position. I then found a piece of scrap wood, a 2 x 4 will work fine, and cut it to that length, maybe a bit more, so that it would wedge underneath the tray and hold it tightly in position while I adjusted it to exactly where I wanted it, and then drilled some pilot holes, don't drill too far, only go in far enough to make a starter hole for the screws. You could just screw it and not drill pilot holes, but I didn't want the screw wandering so as to move the position of the tray, so it was more accurate with the pilot holes. Leaving the board in place, I screwed it in. Done! I recommend using the hang down bracket positions in the lowest setting giving you the most room for your hand and mouse access.
