Kanto P101 Universal Projector Ceiling Mount | Solid Steel Construction | Easy to Install | Black

Very neat and tidy looking. Low profile. Holds adjustments. Easy installation.

I only write reviews for excellent products or pieces of junk. This mount is excellent.I have a large,17 lb projector and needed low profile for a low ceiling. This mount delivered.It’s well built and VERY customizable. Bad reviews are from user/install error, period. Take your time, find the center of gravity on your projector, tighten down your ball joint well, and use the set screws for fine tuning….Maybe a little overpriced at $70, but I found it on sale for $55 and it’s worth every penny!

I found this projector ceiling mount fairly easy to install. The problems that I had were related to trying to positions the legs on to the Optoma UHD60 projector. They provide 2 medium (already assembled on the mount), 2 short and 2 long set of legs, well the 2 longs are too long and the 2 short are too short. I wish they had included another pair of medium legs as this would have made it a breeze to center the mount on the UHD60 projector. I had to try several combinations until one worked. Everything else went fine until the projector was on the ceiling, then frustrations starts. The first thing I noticed was that the swivel part does not hold the position. It kept tilting towards the left which keeps the projector slightly out of level and since the UHD60 doesn't have keystone correction this is a critical point. After several removals and installs, mind you while you are doing all these adjustment you can easily, if not careful, drop your projector if you are doing it by yourself. I finally got it as close as I could of being leveled but a week later the projector is starting to lean to the left again, ugh! It seems impossible to find the sweet spot and lock down the swivel part while mounted in the ceiling and the projector is on. Another thing that was annoying was trying to put on the final 2 screws to completely secure the mount portion connected to the projector. One of the 4 tiny Allen head screws stripped, because I had to remove and install so many times. The mount seems solid and has a lot adjustments, flexibility and extra screws. I like the concept but the final adjustment is a pain in the rear. If only the final adjustment could have been done while mounted in the ceiling it would have made it a 30 minute job instead of 2 hours.

I liked it because the clearance from ceiling can be as low as 3 inches. An imbalance in weight (I have Optoma UHD50x with lens to one side of it) can cause it to tilt. I have to ensure the bracket is sort of centered on the projector to make it stable. Otherwise it is easy to install and use.

I was worried that this mount will not fit my projector which is only 30% of a normal size (LG PF1500). But thanks to a generous set of spare parts included by the manufacturer, it took me about 5 minutes to fit it perfectly. The mount does the job and I like that it is only 3" tall. See the pictures how I installed the projector with this mount.

Super Easy to setup!

perfect, i do a lot of systems and this one will do for any situation, so if you don't know what you exactly need this has it all.

I needed a mount for about 6-8 inches from the ceiling and this was the closest I could find. The mount come with many options for mounting arms and screws to make attaching the projector fairly easy. The problems started when I started to connect everything to the ceiling mount. First off the extension tube's adjustment holes were not properly drilled or aligned, the large mounting screw did not want to go through both sides of the tube. Next there were set screws to put in the tubes to keep them from moving, the thread of the mounting tube ended up stripping out. Finally there are two screws to thole the projector mount into the extension tubes, the holes for these screws are filled with plastic so the screws can not be threaded in.I did not see many options in the length I needed, other mounts were all very close to the ceiling or way too long and this mount was about my only option. Hopefully everything stays in place and I dont ever have to move the projector. Overall I am disappointed with the quality of what was received since so many parts did not want to work properly.
