Minneapolis, MN. — (February 22, 2008) – www.chiefmfg.com – Chief Manufacturing, the industry leader in projector and flat panel TV mounts, is excited to announce the release of the WPA Short Throw Projector Wall Mount for fast and stable installation of short throw projectors.

WPA is packed with innovative features and benefits, focusing on flexibility and ease of installation. A built-in track design allows the projector to be shifted up to 11” (318 mm) to create the ideal image size. The mount includes integrated roll adjustments, post-installation extension adjustments, and quick projector connect/disconnect without tools. Security hardware is also included.

WPA is compatible with all major short throw projectors models, and can be ordered with custom or universal interface. Custom interfaces for Sanyo®, Hitachi® and Toshiba® can be ordered now and will begin shipping in February. When additional pitch adjustments are needed, add Chief‘s RPA™ or RPA™ Elite Projector Mount to get perfect registration.
