How to install Peerless-AV SmartMount Back-to-Back Ceiling Mount with Media Player Storage for 40" to 65" Displays
Step 1 — Plan and assess installation site: Identify a sturdy ceiling location with access to ceiling joists or a structural member capable of supporting the weight of two displays plus media equipment. Confirm all viewing angles and ensure there's adequate clearance for mounting arms, displays, and the shelving assembly.
Step 2 — Prepare mounting hardware and components: Lay out the DST965 kit, including the back-to-back mounting plates, ceiling attachment hardware, display mounting arms, shelving shelves, and side panels. Check that all components are present and free of damage before proceeding.
Step 3 — Install ceiling mounting framework: Attach the primary ceiling mounting bracket to securely anchored joists or structural supports. Use appropriate anchors and fasteners recommended by the manufacturer based on your ceiling type. Ensure the bracket is level and capable of supporting distributed load for dual displays.
Step 4 — Attach back-to-back mounting hardware: Mount the dual-facing arms and back-to-back plate assembly to the ceiling bracket according to the included instructions. Confirm that the arms are aligned and parallel to ensure precise display symmetry and alignment for both screens.
Step 5 — Mount displays: Attach each display to its respective VESA mounting pattern on the back-to-back arms. Verify compatibility with 40"–65" panels and ensure secure fasteners to prevent sway or detachment. Make sure display height and tilt (if applicable) allow for clear, unobstructed viewing.
Step 6 — Install media player shelving and route cables: Place media players or devices on the included shelving. Route power and signal cables through the built-in cable management channels and behind the side panels to maintain a clean appearance. Use proper cable ties or organizers to keep cables tidy and accessible for maintenance.
Step 7 — Attach side panels and finalize: Install the side panels to conceal wiring and equipment. Double-check all connections, tighten hardware, and perform a functional test by powering on the displays and confirming two-sided visibility and synchronized operation where required.
Step 8 — Safety and final checks: Inspect all fasteners, verify that the structure is secure, and confirm there is no undue stress on the mounting arms or displays. Monitor the installation during initial operation to ensure stability under typical environmental conditions and usage patterns.
