Mounting systems

Projector optics often differ in their beam angle. Therefore, there are differences in the height of the beginning of the image. Especially with a projector with lens shift and vertical image offset, you can often save several centimetres on the ceiling mount because you can simply move the image downwards. This is a particularly pleasant feature in home cinemas, as it allows the projector to hang closer to the ceiling and thus be less conspicuous.

The ceiling height is crucial when choosing a projector ceiling mount. Projectors should generally hang parallel to the top edge of the screen. It is therefore important that the projector ceiling mount is height-adjustable.

The length of the projector ceiling mount depends on the ceiling height in the room of installation. If the ceiling is particularly high, an adjustable projector ceiling mount should be selected. The height of the screen and thus the projection surface must also be taken into account when choosing a ceiling mount.

The upper edge of the visible screen surface determines which projector mount can be used. If you mount it on the ceiling, only a flat projector mount is needed. If you are using a projection screen with a longer black lead, this must be calculated in separately.
