• Extreme reach meets heavy-duty support. The AEC1012 delivers a substantial 10–12 foot extension, enabling you to position large displays and signage at optimal viewing heights in spaces with tall ceilings, cathedral ceilings, or elevated platforms. With a load rating up to 500 lb, this extension column covers a wide range of display sizes, enclosures, and multi-panel configurations while maintaining solid stability and safety. Its telescoping design is engineered to minimize flex and wobble, ensuring your content remains clearly visible with minimal vibration. This combination of height, strength, and stability makes the AEC1012 a dependable backbone for demanding installations in retail, museum, and corporate environments.
• Clean aesthetics and cable management. The AEC1012 is designed to blend seamlessly into modern interiors, offering a slim, unobtrusive silhouette that keeps attention on the display itself. Cable routing is streamlined through internal channels, reducing visible wiring and creating a clean, professional look. The minimal hardware footprint helps preserve sightlines, which is particularly important in retail storefronts and showroom spaces where the impact of your messaging matters just as much as the hardware that supports it.
• Versatile compatibility for flexible configurations. This extension column is built to work with Peerless mounting hardware and standard display brackets, enabling a broad range of configurations across different brands and display types. Whether you’re mounting a wide 40–65 inch flat panel, an ultra-thin monitor, or a digital signage enclosure, the AEC1012 supports the common interfaces used in professional installations. The result is a scalable solution that stays relevant as your signage strategy evolves or as you upgrade displays over time.
• Ideal for exhibits, retail, and digital signage. The 10–12 ft reach is particularly well-suited for exhibit booths, storefront windows, and lobby installations where messaging must be legible from a distance. The robust 500 lb capacity accommodates heavier signage or multiple devices in a single mounting system. In retail environments, the extended reach helps maximize visibility and draw attention to promotions, while in digital signage applications it enables eye-level or strategic height placement that enhances readability and engagement from various angles.
• Installer-friendly design and durable construction. The AEC1012 is built for reliable, long-term use in high-traffic spaces. Its steel construction and factory-applied coatings are designed to withstand daily handling and environmental exposure typical of public interiors. The installation process emphasizes safety and efficiency, with straightforward assembly steps and a design that minimizes the amount of on-site modification required. For professionals, this translates to a faster, safer installation with consistent results across projects.

how to install Peerless AEC1012

• Plan your installation by assessing ceiling structure and load requirements. Confirm the ceiling can support the combined weight of the extension column, mount, and the mounted display, and ensure there is a clear space for cable routing and maintenance access.
• Unpack components and inspect for damage. Gather the tools specified in the installation manual and lay out all parts in the order they will be assembled to streamline the process.
• Assemble the extension column to the desired length within the 10–12 ft range. Lock the telescoping segments securely, verify that each segment sits flush, and ensure there is no play or misalignment before attaching the upper mounting plate.
• Attach the top mounting plate to the ceiling mount bracket and anchor it firmly to structural elements of the ceiling using appropriate hardware. Use a level to confirm the assembly is plumb and true, adjusting as needed to maintain a straight, stable mount for the entire system.
• Mount the display or signage bracket to the extension column according to the display’s VESA or mounting pattern requirements. Route cables through the internal channels, connect power and signal lines, test the system, and perform a final weight check to confirm stability and safe operation before turning on the equipment.
