Precision Fit for Vivitek Projectors

This ceiling mount is engineered exclusively for Vivitek DH278, DH27HAA, DS272, DS27BAA, DW275 and DW27EAA models. The CNC-machined plate matches the exact mounting points of each unit, ensuring secure attachment without blocking ventilation. Installers who need a dedicated, model-specific solution rather than a universal bracket will find the correct fit here.

Rigid Aluminium Build with 360° Orientation

Constructed from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminium, the mount holds the projector roughly 5 inches below the ceiling surface. The assembly rotates a full 360 degrees and allows pitch and roll adjustment in any direction, so the image can be aligned precisely. Solid metal construction keeps vibration and operational noise to a minimum during normal use.

Lateral Shift Coupling and Included Hardware

A built-in lateral shift coupling provides 1-1/2 inches of side-to-side travel, letting you centre the lens when the ceiling joist is off-axis. Every bolt, spacer and washer required for installation is supplied in the box along with detailed step-by-step instructions. The mount is not designed for drop or false ceilings, so a solid structural anchor point is necessary.

Questions about this item

How do I attach the CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum plate to my Vivitek DH278 and what step is often missed?

Bolt the custom plate to the projector's four mounting holes using the included hardware, then slide the plate into the lateral-shift coupling. The step installers skip is loosening the coupling bolts before centring the lens, so the 1-1/2 inch left/right adjustment cannot engage.

Which parts of the mount will need checking or replacement over time?

The 360-degree swivel joint and pitch/roll pivot bolts carry the full projector weight; inspect them annually for play and re-torque to the original spec. The 6061-T6 aluminum plate and coupling do not wear, but the supplied mounting screws can stretch if over-tightened during later adjustments.

What is the first limitation I will hit when the projector runs continuously in this fixed 5-inch drop position?

The mount holds the unit only 5 inches from the ceiling, so the projector's own exhaust heat becomes the limiting factor. If the ceiling cavity restricts airflow, the projector will trigger thermal protection long before the aluminum structure or lateral-shift coupling shows any stress.
