What is the load bearing capacity? Is that altered by installing from the ceiling vs from the wall?

I don't kno that's an issue with the hardware and would be more with what you're attaching the hardware too. When I ordered this a few years back it's very sturdy steel. Just make sure it's secured to a stud and not just drywall.

I'm an experienced builder and my answer is "No". Way too heavy and design/materials will not permit adequate fastening to wall nor will it support loading if elevated.

I am using these for wall mounting not ceiling mounting. You can use these both way. Just for additional info, I am using these for Definitive Promonitor 1000, which are very heavy.

As long as you have beams over head to attach your supports to. I have two of them suspended from the garage ceiling, and neither one is near a wall. That way you have access from either side to load storage boxes.

I installed it without removing the existing ceiling, just cutting a hole in the ceiling where the light fixture was. On a scale of 1-5 about a 3. I did have to enlarge the hole a little bit bigger than normal, because the ceiling had sheet rock over lath and plaster.

I don't know the weight pull. We had ours installed professionally and it feels like I could not pull it out of the wall no matter how hard I pulled or how strong I was.

I believe it's an inch in diameter....it's textured as well. I have mine mounted against a side wall instead of from the ceiling and braced with two ratcheted come-alongs. Sucker can support both my wife and I dead-hand and full weight without even creaking.

Erick,It depends what type of wall material that you are mounting it against. I mounted it into a weight bearing wall made out of cinder blocks, and I used TapCons (concrete screws). If your wall material is thick wood, you may be able to use wood screws that have deep cut threads; however, if your wall material is thin drywall, I would get a professional installer that knows "trade secrets" for anchoring the screws, mount, and handling the weight of the TV. The last thing you want is for your TV to fall onto the floor because it was improperly mounted, and if it does, your going to want the added security that the professional that installed it had insurance to cover the damages.

Hello BaronI believe it the weight is around 60-70lbs. What I have done just to be sure it will not fal down I have added some support in the ceiling(couple pieces of 2X4 added between joist) so there is a place to drive screws into(there are two steel( crossed) bars that you will have to mount it to the ceiling). I guess it depends on the structure/layout of the ceiling where you will be installing it.Hope that helps.M

Once you install it to the wall or ceiling , it is not adjustable , I hope this helps you.

I chose to mount it on the wall instead ...sorry I cannot answer the exact question but I really like it.

I believe you can. I had an electrician install, and it seems to me that he let me choose the length that it would be from the ceiling.

the Moen website says 250 lbs. It installs with very secure extra large anchoring screws. I have one that was placed by my handyman in a typical wall and it holds well. I had a second installed in a renovated bathroom that the carpenter placed a 1X6 and it is even more secure.

Nothing. I have the same condition, but about 15 deg. I think it has to do with the thickness of the screw heads and which predrilled holes are used to attach the brackets to the wall. Attachment points may be limited to the very top and bottom points, which causes concerns with holding capacity. Mine are into wood, and I have elected to live with it. Good Luck.

This can be installed in dry wall no studs required. I can confirm, it will hold the weight it is advertised for.

The weight limit will vary depending on how you choose to mount it, and the brackets weight load maximum. We chose a ceiling mount into wooden beams with brackets purchased from ikea (ekore) they hold 300lb+
