Peerless-AV PLCM-2-UNL Straight Column Ceiling Mount with Universal Adaptor Plate for 32"-75" Displays

PLCM-2-UNL – Peerless-AV Straight Column Ceiling Mount with Universal Adaptor Plate

The Peerless-AV PLCM-2-UNL combines the PLCM-2 straight column ceiling mount tilt box with the PLP-UNL Universal I-Shaped Adaptor Plate, delivering a complete ceiling mounting assembly for 32" to 75" flat panel displays up to 200 lb in commercial AV environments requiring a direct-drop ceiling mount profile.

Product Description

The PLCM-2 ceiling mount design uses a straight column that runs directly from the ceiling attachment to the display, maintaining a clean vertical line with no offset or angular departure from the drop point. This geometry is preferred in installations where the display must hang directly beneath a structural attachment point — such as a ceiling joist, beam, or concrete insert — rather than being offset to one side. The straight-column profile also minimizes the visual footprint of the mount, which matters in architecturally sensitive commercial spaces.

The PLP-UNL Universal I-Shaped Adaptor Plate included in this configuration supports displays with mounting hole patterns up to 600 x 400mm, covering the majority of commercial flat panels in the 32" to 75" size range. The I-shaped geometry provides access to the rear of the display for cable connections after mounting, without requiring the display to be removed from the mount.

The PLCM-2 tilt box delivers 20° of adjustable tilt and 360° of swivel for post-installation display positioning. Theft-resistant security fasteners are included to secure the display in public-facing and semi-public commercial environments. The mount is UL listed and includes detailed installation instructions for both wood stud and concrete ceiling structures. Extension columns are not included with the PLCM-2-UNL; they are selected separately based on the required drop height for each installation.

Key Features

• 200 lb Maximum Load Capacity — Supports large commercial displays up to 200 lb, accommodating high-brightness commercial panels and large-format displays in the 32" to 75" range.
• Universal I-Shaped Adaptor Plate (PLP-UNL) — Supports displays with VESA mounting hole patterns up to 600 x 400mm and provides access to the display’s rear connections after installation.
• 20° Adjustable Tilt — Allows the display to be angled downward for optimal sightlines from floor-level audiences without requiring repositioning of the ceiling attachment point.
• 360° Swivel — Full rotation allows the display to be oriented toward the desired viewing area at any angle relative to the ceiling attachment point during or after installation.
• Theft-Resistant Security Fasteners — Included hardware secures the display to the adaptor plate, deterring unauthorized removal in airports, retail stores, lobbies, and other public commercial spaces.
• Extension Column Length Selection — Columns are specified separately for each installation, allowing the drop height to be matched precisely to the ceiling height and required display position in each space.
• UL Listed — UL listing confirms the mount meets recognized safety standards for commercial installations and satisfies insurance and code compliance requirements in many jurisdictions.
• Cord Control — Integrated cable management provisions route power and signal cables along the column for a professional, concealed appearance.

Typical Applications

The PLCM-2-UNL is the appropriate ceiling mount for commercial AV installations where the display must hang directly below the ceiling attachment point on a straight vertical column. Typical environments include sports facilities and recreation centers where displays are suspended above spectator areas, airport terminal gate and concourse areas, retail store floor displays, hotel lobbies and common areas, and corporate cafeterias and break rooms. The high load rating and UL listing also make it suitable for installations in government and institutional facilities where code compliance documentation is required. The mount is sold without a ceiling plate; installations requiring a canopy plate should reference the PLCM-UNL-CP configuration.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the PLCM-2-UNL include a ceiling plate?

No. The PLCM-2-UNL ships without a ceiling plate. A ceiling plate must be specified and purchased separately. If you need a version that ships with a ceiling plate, the PLCM-UNL-CP includes the ceiling plate as part of the kit. Contact Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net to confirm which configuration is correct for your installation.

What extension column lengths are compatible with the PLCM-2-UNL?

The PLCM-2-UNL is compatible with the standard Peerless-AV 1.5" NPT extension column range. Available lengths allow the mount to be configured for a range of ceiling heights. The correct column length is determined by the distance from the ceiling attachment point to the desired display center height in each space. Creation Networks can assist with column selection for your specific installation dimensions.

Is the PLCM-2-UNL appropriate for concrete ceiling installations?

Yes. Peerless-AV provides detailed installation instructions for both wood stud and concrete/masonry ceiling structures with the mount. Concrete installations require appropriate anchor hardware rated for the combined weight of the mount, column, and display. Consult the installation instructions for anchor specifications and verify anchor selection with a qualified contractor for overhead load applications.
