Salamander Oslo 245 Cabinet for Integrated LG HU85LA & HU915Q U...
Product Overview
The Salamander Oslo 245 is an 85.5-inch UST projector cabinet for an integrated LG HU85LA or HU915Q ultra short throw projector, fronted in Black Glass with a black top. The glass facade is the premium finish in the LG 245 range, specified for executive and client-facing rooms where the cabinet sits in view throughout a meeting. It houses projector, source equipment, and cabling in one enclosure and holds its finish across years of daily use.
Product Description
In a boardroom or briefing center, the AV credenza is visible to every person in the room for the length of the meeting, which makes finish durability a functional specification rather than an aesthetic one. Veneer accumulates wear along the front edge and around door pulls; glass does not, and it reads as an intentional architectural material rather than as furniture chosen to conceal equipment.
The LG projector mounts at a factory-fixed offset, so ultra short throw geometry is established by the cabinet rather than commissioned on site — an install becomes furniture placement rather than optical alignment. Equipment bays alongside the projector compartment take switching, sources, and control hardware, with internal cable routing between them. Interior access is preserved so equipment can be serviced without disturbing projector alignment.
Key Features
- Black Glass Front — Premium finish for close-viewed executive and client-facing rooms.
- Finish Durability — Resists the edge wear that shows on veneer in daily-use rooms.
- LG HU85LA and HU915Q Integration — Factory-fixed projector offset removes UST field alignment.
- 85.5-Inch Width — Full equipment capacity alongside the projector compartment.
- Concealed Cable Management — Nothing visible between projector and equipment.
- Serviceable Interior — Maintenance without disturbing projector position.
Typical Applications
- Boardroom and executive briefing center
- Conference room

Competitor Comparison
Three products get specified against the same brief and solve it differently. Competitor prices are list figures at time of writing and change.
| Criterion | Salamander 245 (this cabinet) | Vividstorm Barcelona Mark III (VC22BC130B) | Middle Atlantic C5-FF27 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Projector integration | Machined at the factory for one named projector, so throw geometry is fixed by the cabinet and never commissioned on site. | Universal UST bay matched to a published projector list including Formovie Theater and the Hisense PX series; position is set during installation. | No projector accommodation. It is a rack credenza frame, not a projection cabinet. |
| Equipment capacity | Width gives equipment bays alongside the projector compartment at a standard cabinet depth — wide rather than deep. | Compartments are sized for consumer AV components; Vividstorm publishes no 19 in rack rail specification for this cabinet. | Purpose-built 19 in rack credenza — the strongest of the three for rack density. |
| Screen | Not included. Pairs with a separately specified fixed-frame or tensioned ALR screen. | Motorized ALR screen rises from the cabinet, so screen and cabinet are a single purchase. | Not included. |
| Finish | Commercial veneer, lacquer and glass options across the line: Chicago textured Black Oak, Miami Gloss Warm White, Siena Medium Walnut, Oslo Black Glass. | Residential-oriented finishes, generally black or white. | Ships as a frame; veneer or laminate is field-applied to match existing room millwork. |
| Market fit | Commercial — boardrooms, briefing centers, government and higher education. | Residential and prosumer home theater. | Commercial AV, but as a rack enclosure rather than a projection cabinet. |
| Delivered state | Arrives assembled and finished; the projector drops into a prepared opening. | Arrives assembled with the screen mechanism installed. | Frame only — doors, tops, rack rails and finish are specified and added separately. |
| Indicative price | $3,799 | $3,649 | $1,922.40, frame only, before doors, top, rails and finish |
How to choose: specify the Salamander cabinet when the room is commercial, the projector model is already decided, and the same enclosure has to carry rack equipment. The Vividstorm suits a residential install that wants the screen bundled. The Middle Atlantic C5-FF27 is the right answer when rack density matters more than projection and the finish will be matched to existing millwork. Where the room needs both UST projection and full-depth rack gear, the 237 deep chassis at 34 in is the variant to look at.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why specify glass over the Chicago or Miami finishes?
Close-range appearance and long-term finish durability. In rooms used daily, veneer shows edge wear within a couple of years while glass does not. Glass shows fingerprints more readily but cleans completely.
Does the glass front affect cooling?
No. Ventilation is handled through the rear panel and optional active cooling rather than the front face. Specify an active cooling rear panel for equipment-dense builds.
Is the LG projector included?
No. The cabinet is factory-prepared with the cutout and mounting; the projector is purchased separately.
