Abstract Tooless assembly of a keyboard into an information handling system housing is performed by dropping the keyboard into an opening of the housing so that tabs and hooks of the keyboard align with tab slots and hook slots of the housing, by sliding the keyboard relative to the housing to engage the tabs in the tab slots and the hooks in the hook slots, and by securing the keyboard from moving relative to the housing with a tooless keyboard lock. For instance, a portable information handling system having a hinged lid secures the keyboard from sliding by inserting a hinge cover between the keyboard and the housing, the hinge cover having rib structures to keep it in place. Sliding of the keyboard relative to the housing is aided with a pull tab coupled to the keyboard that stores under the hinge cover once assembly is complete.
