So, is thsi adjustable to any height from 4 and upto 12"? Also, can this be angled to aim the projector downward ? I have a BenQ HT1085ST and need to install at a height of about 12" and aim lower because the screen is much lower. Thanks for the answers

This mount will adjust to absolutely any angle you need. If you are in a tight spot, then this is the mount for you. If you need to angle the projector "down" then you need a longer mount...one with a "down rod" preferably...Angling the image downward will cause a distortion, or trapezoid. It can be "corrected" with the keystone function, but that should be a last ditch attempt. You are far better off getting the right mount that will put your projector at the correct height for your screen.

The projectors that I researched will project an image from 20"-300" . The closer the projector is to the screen, the smaller the image. The 115" diagonal screen is a great size. I've set up the screen in the back yard several times for movie nights. You can hang the screen on a fence or from the low eave of the house. I like the screen but you will need to use the anchors (that are provided) on all 4 corners. Let me know if you have any other questions.

It depends, but I just used it to project a 135" diagonal screen at about 13 feet. It would go higher to about 150" at 15-16 feet, but it has to be really dark for that to be bright enough. It doesn't have horizontal keystone, just vertical, so it only adjusts up and down based on the height of the projector and tilt. Any closer than 13 feet and it is really clear and bright, but gets down to about 80-100" diagonal screen size range.

It's a fixed position. You can tilt left/right/up/down as well as turn completely around. So you'll need to adjust the zoom on your projector or place in best tile for correct distance & quality display.

There is a T bolt (bolt with plastic wing type head easy to turn) that comes with the unit to lock the tilting position. I just adjusted my screen earlier today, so it's there and it works. Not a whole lot of range for tilting though, maybe 30 degree up and down? Hope this helps.

The top shelf has an adjustable angle, the lower shelf is in a fixed angle. Shown in the picture, you could adjust the angle of the projector side to side. If you turn the projector to point to the left side of the picture you could then adjust the front and back angle to fix your problem. Make sense?

that would depend on the how big of a screen you want and what angle you are projecting.I have my projector mounted on the ceiling and projecting a 110" image on my wall. I have rather good definition although the angle form the ceiling mount makes one corner of the projection not as clear as the rest,(there is a lens focus that you adjust for different distances) but from what I have read on every projector this is a very common problem. I would recommend this projector over any other. between it's value and clarity its a great buy for a big screen without the big price. let me know if you have any other questions. that would depend on the how big of a screen you want and what angle you are projecting.I have my projector mounted on the ceiling and projecting a 110" image on my wall.

Hi Forest, as for distance as this projector has a zoom function, the range for a 100 inch screen is between 5'3" and 6'4". Not certain what to recommend re ceiling mount, I adapted my old Dell mount to suit. I find this site to be really useful when considering what to buy.... http://www.projectorcentral.com/BenQ-W770ST-projection-calculator-pro.htm

The height position on the mounting post is semi permanent, not something you would want to adjust regularly. However the arm itself provides height adjustment swing capability of about 12 inches BTW, the monitor mounting bracket also has a swing range allowing you to aim the monitor in an upward or downward direction.

There is NO height adjustment on this mount. Once installed the projector easily swings up and down or left to right, but you cannot actually lower the entire projector with this mount. If you need it lower you will have to use a pipe or something similar to lower it from the ceiling. Small changes to your screen can be made by pointing your projector up or down, but ideally it is better for your projector to be level compared with the top of your screen

I used the "QualGear PRB-717-WHT Universal Ceiling Mount Projector Accessory" for the projector I purchased (BenQ HT-series HT1075 1080P 2,200 ANSI Lumen 3D Full HD Home Theater Projector). It was not 100% intuitive, but had plenty of adjustability and mounting hardware - I would recommend this mount, much better than the previous mount I had. BTW - very happy with the projector - My son uses this mostly for gaming.

You can use wedge shims to adjust up and down. But if you use the existing holes in the headlight housing to mount the new projector it should not need to be aimed.

The PA75U doesn't have a zoom so the only way to adjust the size is by the distance from the screen. The focus is limited. I tried it up to 120 inches and it worked fine but it had very little adjustment left to its focus adjuster. I don't have a fixed mount because i take it to different places but it is about 13 feet for 120 inches. I have a 100 inch screen. It takes up a lot of room. For convenience i prefer walls but for great 3D movies I'll get out the screen. As I mentioned in the review, it's difficult to find a clear wall for projecting such a large picture. I had to get an area of wall at least ten feet long with enough distance from the wall, at least 13 feet. I live in a large house and had a hard time finding and clearing a wall. I use a tripod for setting up, but there again, tripods need space. I can't imagine using a portable setup with a portable screen and tripod in an apartment. For an apartment or small home it'd probably be best to use a pull down screen and permanently installed ceiling mount.

Couple of questions.1. Is your projector a short throw or long?2. What is your desired screen size?

Hi Lawrence. I am not an expert, but I do own the projector you are looking at. I also installed it in our theatre. We hung it at 15' out and the throw is tight. I can't imagine being able to set it up at 8'. But the expert is better to ask. I was able to get through to the BenQ customer service. They were very knowledgeable when I was installing. But it did take several days for them to call back.

Yes it is adjustable. It has a range of about 12 inches. I have it on a 70 inch LED TV and have it set to about 4 inches below the ceiling to the top of the screen. I know I could have moved it up or down a pretty good distance. Very stable and strong unit. I was impressed.

It's a projector, you can move it up closer or further back to get whatever size you want. you can do a few inches to a few hundred inches. I've had mine at 330" and it looked okay ( not overly bright) but 92" or 115" wouldn't be a problem at all.
