CHICAGO, IL — March 14, 2006 — Peerless Industries, Inc., the industry leader in audio/visual mounting solutions, today introduced the new SmartMount dedicated wall mounts (SF16D, SF24D and ST16D, ST24D) for 22″ to 71″ flat panel screens. These professional-grade mounts are designed to provide installers with simplified set-up that will keep mounting projects on time and on budget.
“Installers working on multiple screen placements have a clear incentive to complete their efforts on time and on budget, and they need mounting systems built with those requirements in mind,” said Derrik Lam, director, mounting solutions at Peerless Industries, Inc. “The new SmartMount solutions reflect our commitment to meet those requirements and enable cost-effective, simple flat panel screen installation.”
The new SmartMount dedicated wall mounts provide model-specific solutions for mounting medium to large flat panel screens used in public environments, such as houses of worship, educational facilities and corporate offices. They feature an easy-glide bracket design that engages with an audible click, which confirms the screen is securely attached to the wall bracket. Installers can choose from a wall plate for 16″ stud centers (SF16D, SF24D), perfect for portrait-style applications, or a wider wall plate for 16″-24″ stud centers (ST16D, ST24D) to suite installation requirements. Installation hardware is included for wood studs, concrete and cinder block, while metal stud mounting option is available with an additional accessory pack. These mounts require Peerless’ PLP model-specific adapter plate. This PLP model-specific adapter plate is designed to precisely match a screen’s specific mounting requirements, ensuring an exact fit. Shipped pre-assembled, including only the necessary screen attachment hardware required for the specific screen model, the dedicated wall mounts are easy to install and speed up any project.
Clean Look, Self-Balancing Design
The dedicated flat wall mounts (SF16D, SF24D) incorporate an ultra-slim wall plate that holds the screen close to the wall, for a clean appearance. The dedicated tilt wall mounts (ST16D, ST24D) offer a self-balancing design with -5/+15 degrees of continuous tilt that allows adjustment of the screen to the desired viewing angle without the use of tools. The mount’s built-in positive locking feature allows the tilt angle to be set or locked in 5 degree increments. The tilt locking feature prevents tampering or accidental changes to the tilt angle. These dedicated flat panel wall mounts make multi-screen installations fast and easy while maintaining a precise and uniform alignment where required.
Dedicated flat and tilt SmartMount models come with integrated security features for a safe and secure installation.

The new SmartMount dedicated flat and tilt wall mounts for flat panel screens are currently available at list prices ranging from $72.00 — $110.00 depending on the model. Peerless model-specific PLP adapter plates are available at a list price of $115.00.
