PIANO DESKS
And Lid Props

Piano desks are very vulnerable since the are often the most fragile part of the piano, and, to make things worse, they get loaded down too heavy with books.  Spinet and console desks are mounted with two small hinges at the base of the desk.  This plan is followed by 90% of piano makers, and it is insane.  Grand desks are made to hang all the way across the piano on two small rails.  The desk itself often comes in three pieces which some genius thought would carry the weight.  So, here are our desk offerings in case you or the moving man busted yours.

Brass End Hinges for Spinet and Console Piano Desks
        Pair of hinges come with machine screws to mount to level desk area,
                but NOT with brass wood screws to mount hinges to desk. See below
        If your holes on the level part under the desk are 28 inches apart, or some other
        distance not matching our desks, you will want to do the following:
                1. Buy the desk next longer than yours, never shorter.
                        This is so that the old holes are UNDER the new desk and unseen.
                2. Drill new holes in line with the old ones, centering the desk precisely.
                3. Make sure the new hardware leave about 1/16 inch (total 1/8" overall) on
                        either end so you can put in a spacer between the wood corner and the
                        brass hardware.
                4. Determine the length brass wood screw you will need to remount the desk.
                        We do not send this because various lengths may be appropriate.
                        Find the brass wood screws at ACE Hardware or Lowes.
                5. We strongly encourage adding some support behind the desk, out of sight,
                        and centered to support the new desk so that the book load is shared
                        between the lower hinges and the support against the lid of the piano.               SH1064        $ 5.00 Pair np
