Best RAM® Mounts for Warehouses, Workstations and Fixed Installations
|
Time to read 3 min
The best RAM® mounts for warehouses and workstations are secure, adjustable mounting systems that keep tablets, scanners, phones and small devices accessible while freeing up bench, trolley or vehicle space. For Australian warehouses, logistics teams, dispatch stations and industrial work areas, RAM® Mounts provide a practical way to organise technology in busy environments.
Unlike lightweight desktop stands, RAM® Mounts can be configured for fixed installations, mobile carts, forklifts, benches, packing stations and wall-mounted setups. The right combination of base, arm and holder can make devices easier to use while reducing clutter and damage risk.
Why warehouses need proper device mounting
Warehouses rely on devices for picking, scanning, dispatch, inventory control, order management and communication. When tablets or scanners are left loose on benches or vehicles, they are more likely to be dropped, misplaced or damaged.
A good warehouse mounting setup should:
- keep devices visible and accessible
- reduce clutter on work surfaces
- support shared devices across teams
- allow safe screen positioning
- suit rugged cases and industrial devices
- withstand repeated daily use
- work across benches, trolleys, forklifts and walls

Best RAM® mounts for packing benches
Packing benches often need devices close at hand without taking up working space. A drill-down base with an adjustable arm can position a scanner, phone or small tablet beside the packing area.
For packing benches, look for:
- a fixed base
- a short or standard arm
- a holder that suits the device
- a position that avoids packing movement
Best RAM® mounts for dispatch stations
Dispatch teams may use tablets, phones or small screens for order management and shipping workflows. An adjustable RAM® setup lets users position screens where they can be seen without blocking paperwork, printers or label stations.
Best RAM® mounts for mobile trolleys
Mobile trolleys and warehouse carts often have rails or frames that can support clamp-style mounting. This is useful when a device needs to move with staff through picking, receiving or inventory tasks.
Best RAM® mounts for fixed installations
For fixed installations, drill-down bases and AMPS-compatible plates are often the strongest choice. They help create a stable, semi-permanent mounting point for workplace devices.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using a light mount for a heavy rugged tablet
- Choosing an arm that is too long for a high-vibration area
- Mounting devices where they block workflow
- Forgetting cable routing for chargers or docks
- Not planning for future device upgrades

Final recommendation
For warehouses and workstations, start by identifying the device, the mounting surface and whether the installation needs to be fixed or movable. For small devices, B size RAM® components are often suitable. For tablets and rugged devices, consider stronger C size components and fixed bases.
