I want to use this in a camper to mount the tv near the ceiling. How much clearance is required above the tv to slide the mount together?

The part on the back of the TV slides into a tapered slot. If everything is square and parallel you need about 5 1/2 inches. If you angle the set just a little to get one "ear" in first you can get that number down to 3 inches. Hope this helps.

Wow.that is something I have not tested on my Cheetah mount. I would cut 2X4 or 4X6 wood triangles in a equilateral triangle and mount the TV in a normal position. I measured 3X and only had to move the tv a 1/2 inch laterally. RD

It all depends on how thick your TV is. Mine is 3.75" thick and the base sticks out 5 inches past the front of the TV. In other words, from the attachment rails, the base sticks out 8.75 inches.

4.25 inches clearance. My Bose center channel fits perfectly underneath it. If you are putting a TV on it, I wouldn't go larger than a 32" tv.

The clearance between the lower edge of the TV and cabinet is one and seven eights (1-7/8 )inches

The lift rollers at top of lift have several inches of adjustment. However, any TV less than 30 inches high (mine is 27 inches) will go above the cabinet. I stop mine with the remote at cabinet height, otherwise it goes 2 inches above cabinet.

I'm not sure whether you mean that the TV's top edge touches the ceiling or whether you want the screen to be up against the ceiling and parallel to the ground...If you meant the top edge of the TV against the ceiling, I think you could get pretty close--depending on the size of your TV. And I haven't found it to be precarious--and I found that it fit my 32" just as described. Oh, and if you want your whole screen completely against the ceiling, you would still have 4 or 5 inches of ceiling mount sticking down and I would sure want to invent a secondary method of securing it so that it didn't swing down in an earthquake and smack somebody in the head!

Ha randy the depth you have is not enought.my mount is 12'' it sticks over a bit because you need a 90 to fit the cable wire. the with is ok ,yours may stick out a bit you will have to adapt the hanger to match .I love It I turned my Kitchen in my man cave when I come home from work it works great the screen is HD and NASCAR looks great on it Goog luck Jim Reilly

The TV mount slides the length the main post, so there's no "minimum height". Depending on how low you mount the TV, you could have a significant amount of the post extending above the TV -- which may be less aesthetically appealing. You could potentially mount the shelf above the TV.

Installed, the tops of the cans are 19 3/4 inches above the mounting surface. I had to add another 1/4 inch spacer at the bottom to let the mechanism slide past the front lip of my cabinet.

When TV is mounted, the height is adjustable about 8" and I've mounted 65" TV on this unit. I've mounted as high as I can and that setup leaves the bottom of the TV about 6" taller than having TV sit on most TV rack which is needed for my center channel speaker. You can drill this unit to the wall stud or attached to TV stand but I've wedged the unit underneath the TV stand as I have enough electronics inside the rack to prevent from tipping over. It is designed to be used with TV rack rather than standalone unit anchored to the wall.

I have it currently clipped to a 3/4" shelf, which appears to be the optimal thickness. Any more than that, and it would probably 'slide'.

Probably not. You would have to have at least 10" clearance from the top front of the TV to the wall as that's how far the shelf sticks out behind the TV.Even if you have the 10" the angle on the TV would be pretty steep and the shelf might slip. The anti-slip pad works real good though and the angle is very adjustable with the legs on the bracket. If you do try this or something else to get a center channel on top of your TV make sure your wall bracket will hold the additional weight(just a thought)

No - it needs to be at least 3 inches below the tv. Theres a wall mounting bracket included in the kit.

Dear James, The height of the TV mount is not adjustable on this item. Thank you, Value Max

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.
