Know before you buy
Yes, this is an all-in-one package. It includes the RPAU universal projector mount, a 3-inch extension column, and the CMS440 suspended ceiling kit, so you won't need to purchase additional mounting hardware for a standard drop ceiling installation.
The mount is rated for a maximum weight capacity of 50 lbs (22.7 kg), which covers the vast majority of standard home theater and office projectors.
Yes, the mount provides significant flexibility. You can adjust the roll by 4 degrees, the pitch by 25 degrees, and achieve a full 360-degree yaw rotation to ensure your image is perfectly aligned with your screen.
The RPAU included in this kit is a universal mount, meaning it is designed to fit most projector models on the market. However, it is always a good idea to verify your projector's mounting hole pattern matches the universal interface before installation.
This kit includes a 3-inch extension column. When combined with the height of the mount itself, your projector will sit a few inches below the ceiling grid, providing a low-profile look.
