Chief Wins CE Pro BEST Award for its New Thinstall™ Medium Swing Arm Wall Mount with In-Wall Box
Posted on Monday, September 12, 2011

Providing almost no profile, this combined mounting solution was recognized as one of the most noteworthy products and technologies of 2011

Minneapolis, MN. USA (SEP 2011) - www.chiefmfg.com - Chief, an industry leader in AV solutions, is being honored today with a 2011 BEST Award from CE Pro, a leading trade magazine covering the custom electronics business. Chief’s new Thinstall™ TS325TU Medium Dual Swing Arm Wall Mount with a TA500 In-Wall Box was named one of the most noteworthy and innovative products of the year.

The winners of the annual BEST Awards are chosen by a panel of industry experts, integrators and the editors of CE Pro. Judging criteria includes: creativity; innovation; incorporated equipment; obstacles overcome; aesthetics; and lifestyle benefits

BEST winners will be recognized today at the CE Pro Headquarters Booth (3009) at CEDIA, the leading tradeshow in the residential electronic systems industry. Products will be published in the November issue of CE Pro and also featured on CEPro.com.

Launched this summer, Chief’s Thinstall Medium Dual Swing Arm Wall Mount provides an ultra-low profile for TVs 30-52”. Featuring a sleek, lightweight design, this full-motion wall mount collapses to a mere 1.3” (33 mm). When used in conjunction with Chief’s TA500 In-Wall Box, available fourth quarter 2011, the combination provides almost zero depth from the wall.

For maximum viewing potential, the Thinstall Medium Dual Swing Arm Wall Mount extends up to 25” (635 mm), allowing users to move the TV in a variety of ways to achieve the perfect viewing angle. In addition, Centris™ low-profile tilt provides up to 15 degrees of effortless fingertip adjustment helping to reduce glare, while the Centerless™ Lateral Shift offers up to 16” (406 mm) of post-installation adjustment for limitless centering capability. By adding a TA500 In-Wall Box, the mount recesses into the wall, allowing the back of the TV to sit flush with the wall for a no-profile installation.

All necessary hardware is supplied. Multiple cable channels have also been thoughtfully provided and are enclosed with covers allowing tool-free access. A wide-open wall plate allows installers to quickly place the mount and connect power. A single person can easily mount the system’s top rail and slide on the entire assembly.
