Product Overview
The Salamander Oslo 245S 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 option in the LG range, specified for executive and client-facing rooms where the cabinet is seen at close range. It houses the projector, source equipment, and cabling in a single enclosure with the projector fixed at the correct throw offset.
Product Description
Finish durability is a functional specification in a room used every day. Veneer credenzas accumulate visible wear along the front edge and around door pulls within a couple of years of daily use; a glass front does not, and it reads as a deliberate architectural material rather than as furniture chosen to hide equipment. In executive briefing centers where the room contributes to the impression, that difference justifies the specification.
The LG projector mounts at a factory-fixed offset, making ultra short throw alignment a property of the cabinet rather than a commissioning task. Equipment bays beside the projector compartment take switching, source devices, and control hardware, with cable management routed internally between them. The interior remains accessible for service without disturbing projector alignment, so maintenance never becomes recommissioning.
Key Features
- Black Glass Front — Premium finish for close-viewed executive and client-facing rooms.
- Long-Term Finish Durability — Resists the edge wear that shows on veneer in daily-use rooms.
- LG HU85LA and HU915Q Integration — Factory-fixed offset removes UST field alignment.
- 85.5-Inch Width — Full equipment capacity beside the projector compartment.

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
What distinguishes the 245S from the 245?
Both are 85.5-inch LG cabinets with identical dimensions, weight, and projector integration. The S denotes a variant in the Salamander configuration — our team can confirm which is correct for your specification before you order.
Does the glass front restrict ventilation?
No. Cooling is handled through the rear panel and optional active cooling, not the front face. Specify an active cooling rear panel for equipment-dense builds.
Is the projector supplied?
No. The cabinet is factory-prepared with the cutout and mounting; the LG projector is purchased separately.
