Chief K1C220 Reduced Height Wht - K1C220WXRH

Product Overview

The Chief Kontour K1C220WXRH is the Reduced Height variant of the K1C Dynamic Height-Adjustable Column Mount, designed for dual display installations where the minimum display height must be as close to the work surface as possible. This configuration is specified for users who wear bifocal lenses—who require a lower gaze angle for screen reading—or for touch-panel workstations where the screen must be within comfortable reach at its lowest position. Beyond the reduced minimum height, the K1C220WXRH shares the full feature set of the standard K1C column platform: gas-spring dynamic adjustment, Centris Extreme Tilt, column upgrade compatibility, and multiple desk attachment methods in a white finish.

Product Description

The Reduced Height designation on the K1C220WXRH refers specifically to the minimum position the display can occupy relative to the desk surface. Where the standard K1C column mount positions the display at a minimum height appropriate for conventional ergonomic use, this model lowers that minimum further—making it the correct specification when the display must rest as close to the desk as physically possible at its lowest setting.

This capability directly addresses two distinct user populations. Bifocal wearers must angle their gaze downward through the reading portion of their lenses to see the screen clearly; a lower display minimum allows this without requiring the user to tilt their head uncomfortably. Touch-panel users require their screen to be within easy reach of an extended arm; a lower minimum height achieves this at seated workstations without the user needing to lean forward to make contact.

The K1C220WXRH retains the full 20-inch total height adjustment range (13 inches of gas-spring dynamic travel plus 7 inches of manual column adjustment) and the Centris Extreme Tilt system providing +75° to -10° of tilt. The column interface supports upgrades to dual or triple display configurations, and installation uses the same 3-step process and quick-release monitor interface as the standard K1C. Desk attachment options include clamp, grommet hole, and bolt-through with the included hardware. Explore the full Chief ergonomic mount range at the Chief collection on Creation Networks.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes the K1C220WXRH different from the standard K1C220W?
A: The K1C220WXRH is the Reduced Height version, which achieves a lower minimum display position than the standard K1C220W. This is specifically designed for bifocal wearers and touch-panel users who need the display as close to the desk surface as possible at its lowest setting. All other features and specifications are shared with the standard K1C column platform.

Q: Who specifically should specify the Reduced Height model?
A: The K1C220WXRH is the correct specification when users wear bifocal or progressive lenses and need to look through the lower reading portion to see the screen, or when a touch-screen monitor must be within comfortable arm’s reach at a seated workstation.

Q: Does the K1C220WXRH have the same total height adjustment range as the standard model?
A: Yes. The total travel of 20 inches (13 inches dynamic gas-spring plus 7 inches manual column) is the same. The difference is in where the minimum position sits relative to the desk surface, not in the total range of travel.

Q: Can I upgrade from dual to triple monitors on this column later?
A: The K1C column interface supports upgrades from single to dual to triple configurations without removing the column base. Contact Creation Networks to identify the correct arm accessory for your upgrade path.

Q: What warranty applies to the K1C220WXRH?
A: The K1C220WXRH is covered under the Legrand AV / Chief manufacturer warranty. Contact Creation Networks directly for current warranty terms and support options.
