Product Overview

The Salamander Seattle 245 is an 85.5-inch UST projector cabinet for an integrated LG HU85LA or HU915Q ultra short throw projector, finished in Gray Oak with a black top. Gray Oak is the neutral wood option in the LG 245 range — warmer than black glass, cooler than walnut — which makes it the safe match for contemporary offices with mixed finishes. The projector mounts at a factory-fixed offset so UST geometry is set by the cabinet.

Product Description

Gray-toned oak has become the default neutral in commercial interiors because it coordinates with both warm and cool palettes without committing to either. For an AV credenza that has to sit in a room the AV team did not specify the finishes for, that flexibility is the practical argument — it is the finish least likely to clash with existing millwork, flooring, or furniture.

Beyond finish, this cabinet matches the rest of the LG 245 line. The projector is fixed at the correct throw offset at the factory, turning a UST install into furniture placement rather than optical commissioning. Equipment bays alongside the projector compartment carry switching, sources, and control hardware with internal cable routing between them, and the interior stays accessible for service without disturbing projector alignment.

Key Features

  • Gray Oak Finish — The neutral wood option that coordinates with both warm and cool interior palettes.
  • LG HU85LA and HU915Q Integration — Factory-fixed projector offset removes UST field alignment.
  • 85.5-Inch Width — Full equipment capacity alongside the projector compartment.
  • Integrated Equipment Bays — Switching, sources, and control hardware share the enclosure.
  • Concealed Cable Management — Internal routing removes visible cabling from the room.
  • Serviceable Interior — Equipment access without disturbing projector position.

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

How does Seattle Gray Oak compare to the other 245 finishes?

Seattle is Gray Oak, Chicago is grass-texture Black Oak, Miami is Gloss White, and Oslo is Black Glass. All share the same chassis and LG integration. Gray Oak is the most neutral and the least likely to clash with existing interior finishes.

Is the LG projector supplied with the cabinet?

No. The cabinet is factory-prepared with the cutout and mounting; the projector is purchased separately and installed into it.

Can rack equipment and cooling be added?

Yes. Rack brackets, lacing bars, active cooling panels, and power distribution are factory-installed options specified with the order. See the Salamander Designs collection.

What does delivery require?

At 295 lb in a 90-inch carton this ships LTL freight. Confirm dock or liftgate access and the route to the room. Contact our team for delivery and installation.
