Mounting a projector to the ceiling is easy with Vivo universal projector mounts. The VP01 is a surface mount and the VP02 is a ceiling mount with an extension arm. Both are very similar. On the VP02 the extension arm is 15 inches long and can expand to 23 inches and you can lock it anywhere in between with a screw. And it has a low profile mounting plate. All the hardware and screws needed are included to securely mount a projector to the ceiling.
In both models, the actual projector bracket is the same design with 4 adjustable mounting arms. There’s 4 bolts on top to help you lock in the arms in different positions depending on the size of your projector. The arms can swing around and be moved in almost any position with a maximum diagonal distance of 12.5 inches between screw holes on the bottom of the projector. The bracket also has hooks on top for easy mounting.
Mounting a projector with either version is the same. After you’ve figured out where you’re going to mount your projector mark the screw holes on the ceiling. And then a ¾ inch drill bit is needed for the wall anchors if you’re installing the mount without a stud behind it. You can then tap the included wall anchors in place. The main bracket is then installed using the large included screws along with a washer. With the wall anchors in place it’s really easy to secure the bracket onto the ceiling. And once it’s tight, the projector can be hung onto the lower screws. The hooks on the projector bracket hold the projector up so you can put in the other screws.
One thing to note is that I started with the VP01 mount but later found that it put my projector too close to the ceiling and I couldn’t get edges of the projected image lined up with my screen even with the projector’s keystone adjustment. So I switched to the VP02 mount with the extension arm. For me the VP02 gave me better image alignment on the screen because I didn’t have to tilt the projector down as much. Wires can also be run through the extension arm for cable management.
I’m also using a 50 foot HDMI cable from Blue Rigger because I didn’t want to risk running short depending on where I’m going to be placing my video components. Also this HDMI cable from Blue Rigger is CL3 certified for in-wall use which is perfect for me because I’ll be running this through the attic. And if you’re wondering if a 50 foot HDMI cable is too long, I don’t see any issues when it comes to the image quality. But I probably wouldn’t go any longer.
I’m actually really happy about the Vivo projector mounts because they’re both under $20 and can hold up to 30 pounds. And here’s a few more things you should know about the Vivo mounts. If you have a really small projector, you can completely take off all the arms and use the swirly looking openings on the projector bracket for mounting.
Also if you buy the VS02, you can’t use it without the extension arm. The end brackets won’t fit together without the arm. Last thing I want to mention is that these mounts also come in black in case you have a dark ceiling. So if you’re building a home theater or need a projector setup in a conference room the Vivo projector mounts will definitely work well.
