Projector Ceiling Mount 4-in Extension for ViewSonic PS600X PX706HD

In this review the reviewer looks at the Projector Ceiling Mount with a 4-in extension, designed specifically for several ViewSonic projectors. The bottom line: this mount is for anyone who wants a precise, low-profile install that keeps the projector about 4 in from the ceiling while providing full 360 degree swivel and +/- 35 degree pitch and roll. Our review finds the standout is the CNC machined 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum plate that gives a noticeably snug, purpose-fit attachment and better heat clearance than many universal mounts.

Key Features

• CNC machined mounting plate: The precisely cut 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminum plate ensures a tight, wobble-free fit to the projector and feels more durable than stamped alternatives.
• 360 degree swivel: The fully adjustable swivel lets the installer rotate the projector for perfect alignment without moving the mount base.
• Pitch and roll adjustment: The mount offers +/- 35 degree pitch and roll so fine vertical and horizontal leveling is straightforward during installation.
• 4 in ceiling offset: The 4 in extension places the projector close to the ceiling for a low-profile look while leaving space for ventilation and cable access.
• Complete hardware and instructions: All necessary hardware and detailed instructions are included to mount the unit to drywall ceiling or a wooden beam and to attach the projector quickly.

Who It's For

This ceiling mount is aimed at home theater owners and classrooms using compatible ViewSonic models who prefer a purpose-built mount rather than a universal plate. Installers who value a durable metal mounting plate and clean, minimal clearance to the ceiling will appreciate the 4 in extension and precise CNC fit.

Those who should look elsewhere include users with very thick acoustic ceilings or unusual projector footprints not listed among compatible models; in such cases a longer extension or a universal adapter plate may be required.
