Projector installation – a truly immersive viewing experience
When installing a projector, it is important to consider the correct distance, image direction, strength of the mounting surface, projector mount and the location of the viewing area. The installation location should be planned carefully before mounting.
Jelpperi can help when you want your projector positioned and mounted accurately. A projection screen or other small mounting jobs can often be completed during the same visit.
A few things to consider before projector installation
- Is the wall or ceiling material suitable for mounting?
- Is the mount compatible with the projector model?
- Is the room large enough for the projector?
- Does the projector have sufficient lens adjustment for the room?
- What is the correct installation height in relation to the sofa or viewing position?
- Is the projection screen the correct size?
- Do the cables, such as HDMI, antenna or network cables, need to be concealed using cable trunking?

Mounting in older buildings as well
The projector's weight, mounting bracket, installation height and mounting surface determine which fixings and working methods are required. Ceiling and wall structures are assessed before installation.
- Concrete ceiling or wall: provides a strong and durable mounting surface
- Drywall ceiling or wall: the projector's weight and model must be considered carefully when selecting the correct fixings
- Wood and board structures: secure mounting is usually possible with the correct method
- Older buildings (1800–1950): a permanent installation may require special fixings and careful assessment of the structure

- The projector will be mounted on the ceiling or high on a wall
- You are unsure about the ceiling or wall structure
- You want an accurate and neat installation
- You do not want to drill into the ceiling or wall yourself
