Grant's Perspective on ... attractive monitor mounting in multi-display situations.
Getting two or more monitors mounted side-by-side can be a chore. Basically monitors are two large flat plains and when adjoined any deviation between the two can be very noticeable and therefore will look sloppy and careless (i.e one is higher than the other, further from the wall than the other, tilted more than the other, the bezels do not line up,….). Dual monitors are often used in videoconferencing applications and therefore must appear “right at home” as the monitors are the main focus point in the room.
Chief has developed a wall mount system that alleviates this issue - the Chief LSMU Fusion Universal Flat Panel Micro-Adjustable Mount for 37" - 63" Displays. With this system both monitors are attached on the same mounting apparatus and therefore align the same, resulting in a good looking display assembly.
While Chief has some really well produced Fusion videos, I'm partial to their "work shop" production quality but highly informative video. They use clear glass plates as monitors so you can always see how the mount works. At about the 3:20 mark, they demonstrate a 2 display videoconference mounting system. The modular Fusion components are able to mount 2 large displays, speakers and video camera. I have posted a screen shot of the 2 display mount below and the full video link below.
The Chief Fusion mounts have impressed the clients and Inland AV installation techs. Their flexibility in stud location, centerless shift, leveling and quick connect cable access is appreciated by the techs. The clients notice that the monitor is exactly where they want it and it looks great. In this situation I should say, what you don't see looks great.

Well, as the Chiefmounts Canada rep, you know I'll agree, but I may be just a little biased.
ReplyDeleteI have heard many great reviews on this mount from installers and from the people who've ordered it, saying how excited their installer was to be working with such a well thought out mount, and how it saved the customer in installation time.
