Projector Mount
A projector mount is not an essential accessory to your projector but it is worthwhile investing in one. Projector mounts give your projector better position and keep it out of the way from spills and knocks.

Positioning is vital to the viewing quality of a projector and that is something that can be maximized with a good projector mount. This is because a mount is more stable than a stand. Since your projector normally comes with a remote control, mounting your projector to a wall or ceiling will save you some space.

The majority of people go for a ceiling projector mount, as these tend to provide the best positioning. Ceiling mounted projectors are also very discreet and won’t stick out. If you have quite high walls then you may well be better off with a projector wall mount.

When you buy a projector ceiling mount, you will also need to buy a projector ceiling mount tile. This will give your ceiling better support for holding the ceiling mount projector. One of the most well known and popular makers of projector mounts is Chief. Chief projector mounts are very versatile and strong.

The best projector mount in their range is the Chief RPA projector mount. This projector mount is an inverted ceiling mount with the exclusive All-Points Security System and is the top-selling projector mount in the industry. More RPA series mounts are installed in offices, schools and homes than any other mount. The RPA gives you everything you need for quick installation, low profile look, and hassle free projector maintenance. This projector mount was a winner in the 2003 Media and Methods Awards Portfolio for making a significant contribution to the school market.

The RPA projector mount has some great specifications including Low-profile aesthetic design, quick projector disconnect/reconnect, steel-into-steel construction, UL listed for proven strength, easy installation – no assembly, independent roll, pitch and yaw adjustments make it easy to precisely register the projector, disconnect without affecting adjustments, convenient lamp and filter access, All-Points Security System (installed at no extra cost), three ceiling mounting methods, flush mount without disassembly, allows cables to be routed through the top of the projector mount without additional accessories. It is also compatible with the PG-1 Projector Guard Security Cage.

The price of projector ceiling mounts does vary between stores so it will pay to shop around. If you want to save some money on ceiling mount projectors, then you should have a look on eBay or at local auctions. You can also get mounted TV projectors cheaper from these same places.
