Chief Over-the-Whiteboard Interactive Display Mount – 42–100" Displays, Black

The Chief Over-the-Whiteboard Interactive Display Mount is engineered to transform traditional writing spaces into dynamic collaboration hubs. It enables seamless installation of heavy interactive flat panel displays directly over existing chalkboards or whiteboards, giving teachers, facilitators, and presenters a powerful platform for hands-on learning and real-time collaboration. Built to simplify setup, this mount arrives largely pre-assembled with minimal hardware, dramatically reducing installation time so you can focus on impact—not assembly. With height variability at the core of its design, you can precisely position your display to align with student line of sight and writing surfaces, ensuring an engaging, efficient learning or presentation experience in classrooms, training rooms, and boardrooms.

• Universal compatibility for 42–100" displays: This mount is designed to securely support large, interactive panels across a broad size range, accommodating the most common classroom and conference-room displays that rely on touch interaction and high visibility for collaborative activities.
• Fast, hassle-free installation: The mount is largely pre-assembled with minimal hardware, allowing for a quicker setup that minimizes classroom downtime or meeting interruptions while delivering a sturdy installation.
• Height-adjustable positioning: A primary feature is vertical adjustability, letting you dial in the display height to perfectly align with the chalkboard or whiteboard surface, the eye line of participants, and the seating arrangement in any space.
• Above-the-board mounting for clear writing access: Designed to sit above an existing chalkboard or whiteboard, the system keeps your writing surface visible and unobstructed while enabling shared touch-enabled interaction for students and colleagues from the front row to the back of the room.
• Professional finish and durable construction: The black finish delivers a clean, modern look that blends with standard AV aesthetics while providing durable performance in high-traffic educational and corporate environments.

How to install Chief Over-the-Whiteboard Interactive Display Mount

For a successful installation, begin with space planning. Identify the ideal location above the chalkboard or whiteboard where the display will reside, ensuring the wall area has solid backing capable of supporting a large, touch-enabled panel. The Over-the-Whiteboard mount is designed to be user-friendly, so start by unboxing and confirming all components before you begin. Because the system is largely pre-assembled, you will complete only a few necessary steps to deploy the mount and the display, reducing downtime and disruption in classrooms or meeting rooms.

• Step 1 – Prepare the wall: Verify wall integrity and locate studs or other secure backing. Use a level to mark precise alignment lines for the mounting plate so the final display position is perfectly horizontal.
• Step 2 – Attach the mounting plate: Secure the main mounting plate to the wall using the included hardware, following the manufacturer’s guidelines. Ensure the plate is level and firmly anchored to support the weight of the display.
• Step 3 – Connect the arms to the plate: Attach the display arms to the mounting plate according to the provided instructions, selecting the appropriate mounting pattern for your specific display (typical VESA configurations are supported within the 42–100" range).
• Step 4 – Prepare the display: On the back of the interactive panel, confirm the correct VESA pattern and attach the mounting interface to the display. Verify all fasteners are tightened to secure the panel to the arms.
• Step 5 – Install and secure the display: Lift the panel into position and engage it with the mounting arms. Lock fasteners to ensure stability during use, including any quick-release or locking features provided by the mount.
• Step 6 – Adjust height and finalize: Slide the assembly to the desired height and tighten adjustment points. Align the top of the display with the board edge for intuitive annotation and smooth collaboration from the front row to the back.
• Step 7 – cable routing and testing: Route power and data cables cleanly to minimize clutter. Power the display and verify touch responsiveness, image quality, and audio pathways, ensuring everything operates smoothly before classes or meetings begin.
