Chief LSB101 Lateral Shift Bracket for RPMA Mount (Black)

Overview

The Chief LSB101 is a lateral shift bracket designed to enhance the flexibility of Chief RPMA, RPA, and RPA Elite projector mounts. It provides about 3 inches (76 millimeters) of lateral or front-to-back adjustment, allowing precise alignment of the projector image even when the ceiling junction box is not perfectly centered with the screen. This bracket supports projectors weighing up to 50 pounds (22.7 kilograms) while maintaining a low-profile design that adds only about an inch of height to the installation.

Installation and setup

The LSB101 bracket simplifies installation by allowing installers to keep existing ceiling hardware in place, avoiding the need to drill new holes when the junction box is off-center.

This reduces downtime and ensures consistent image alignment.

Its integrated Q-Lock latch offers added protection against tampering, making it a strong choice for environments that require both reliable performance and secure mounting.
