I would like to learn how you create that hole for the HDMI cable and where that cable end up and how you did in the ceiling to get it to your destination spot.

You sir, are a life saver. I was racking my brains why one side of my screen wasn't straight and was getting the trapezoid effect. I measured the centre of the screen redone the projector mount position and now is all good. So many videos out there not explaining this and that's like a crucial part. Many thanks

I picked up a nice used Epson Powerlite 2040 projector to start showing DVDs and Blu ray discs... but I couldn't find any instructions from Epson as to how to ceiling mount the projector. Your video showed me that research and planning are key to a successful ceiling mount. I compliment you on your well done video, which was properly photographed and nicely edited. Thank you, Chad.

It would be nice to buy a mount that has a rail so the projector can be moved closer/away from the screen by a few inches (so I don't have to use zoom) also in case you change projector & it has slightly different throw ratio ? It would also make install a lot easier as your measurements from the screen don't need to be perfect - just fine tune forward/back on the rail to get it spot on 👍 I have the Anker Nebula Max projector with ceiling mount - haven't mounted it yet because I'm looking for a more flexible solution ?

How did you install the 2 brick looking panels on either side of the screen? They look cool

What is the make and model of the projector?

Hi and thanks for the video. Did you have to apply a vertical offset between the projector's lens and top of your screen?

Did the projector have Existing holes in it . Purchased a universal wall mount.But it has no holes so its up side down.What can i use to make it work.

Hi, im new to this projector, i have a epson projector, but it looks like all the brackets attatch on the bottom of the projector, so is there a way of flipping the screen upside down or is it automatic ?
Thanks

grade set up the problem is with mine I can't keep to projector straight it's like the projector is loose in the image falls down if that makes sense when I lift it up with my hands and position it correctly it's there but I don't know what to tighten to make the image stay in place so that the image will be even with my screen any ideas?? I've tighten the bolts on the mount as much as I can it's still not working not sure why any ideas thanks for your help

Very clean set up. Nicely explained. Well done!

I have an Optoma GT 1080e. I saw from your great video that you affixed the mount to the underside of your projector, so am I right that the picture can be inverted on the screen?

[slyman]

What is the mount you used in this video?

[yianniellis]

Looks nice. How did you run your hdmi cable through the ceiling?

[matt]

can you use less brackets? I have low ceilings and don't want it to hang too low

hello, can u please tell me what is the distance between projector and screen

I have a question. When we mount near ceiling, we have to tilt the projector so that the image is on the screen. Will it affect picture quality as opposed to placing the projector lower down at the level of center of the screen?
