how far from the wall should I place the Xmount on the ceiling?

I have two in my gym hanging from the ceiling. I mounted them about 3 feet from the wall. This should give you enough space for all of the exercises.

I would mount in the center of the ceiling if possible to give you room to excercise in forward and backward postions.

I mounted mine above a door as it has enough wood for the screws to bite. You can adjust the length of the straps to account for the height. I purchased a training video that shows you how to adjust the length of the straps and had some core strength routines.

I suggest you to place it about 2.5/3.0 feet away from walls. It should be enough... Have a good workout!

I think it needs to be a good couple of inches off of the wall. However, I am not 100% sure, I would have to look when I get home. I don't think you need to wall mount it though. It sits perfectly on a desk and, personally, doesn't hurt my eyes to sit that close to this beauty.

This is kind of a physics questions. Well it depends on the ceiling joist, 2x4, 2x6, etc and how far between the load bearing walls the tv will sit. I think you should be sure to use the right hardware to attach the mount, probably lag bolts. If in doubt contact a carpenter to look at your ceiling joist. Sorry there's a lot of info necessary to be sure.

The brackets hang from the top/ceiling. Therefor the distance from the wall would be just the thickness of the background closest to the wall. That would be 3-4 inches.

You could certainly extend the cords, but I would have reservations. How will you get up there for install? How will you retrieve the cord if you accidentally let it go without engaging it in the blind-like stop? (That happens.) Use your trigonometry skills to determine how much clearance you would need 20 feet down in order to engage the blind-like clamp. A 10 foot ceiling requires it to be installed 8 inches from the wall on the side of the mechanism. I would love to hear how this goes if you in fact do it.

Oh ok. The distance could actually be customized by you. They're just flat bars mounted to the inside of the unit. You could drill the same size hole they have and move them. The size or distance your existing mount sticks out from the wall might be the only thing that might effect mounting.

That is how we installed our's. Put a nice stained board up for stability & put the mount on it. When we fold the TV up to the ceiling we attatch a bungie cord across it incase we hit a hard bump just to be sure the clame doen not bounce loose. Seems to work great.

Mine is about 18" below the ceiling but I don't recall the instructions specifying anything. But if you have a heat detector near your mount location it will set it off. We replaced our heat detector with a smoke only alarm.

I guess you could. It would be overkill but doable. Note that is can only get about 12-15" close to the ceiling. If you are going to place expensive equipment on it, make sure you hit the ceiling beams with this foot screws. You could use expanded anchor but make sure they are for the ceiling as standard wall anchors won't support a vertical load. You will want to place a board of some sort between the two brackets like a prefinished piece of white shelving. If you only want to mount the receiver, use long white wire ties.

I mounted mine on the ceiling in the middle of my 24' x 30' shop. It works great.

Once fully mounted with tv included it is around 9 1/2 to 10 inches away from the wall.

You could put it higher on the wall or on the ceiling if you wanted to. Just be how long the cord is.

It's best to mount this close to the ceiling. On the back there is a 4 inch exhaust. This will need to be vented to the outside at that approximate height.

I put the bottom of the mounting plate (plastic backing piece) at 7.5 feet from the floor. Works well...

There's a couple of hanger holes about 7" apart for wall mounting. No provisions for ceiling mount.

I installed it on a cabinet. The distance is hidden from view. Sorry not more helpful.

I believe it would be fine. My ceilings are about 8 ft. and I did not use the flush mount and with the drop it is in a position that feels safe. So 6 inches less space with the flush mount closer to the ceiling should work.
