GPO US- Slide Brackets

GPO US- Slide Brackets


GPO US has a wealth of experience with video wall installations which has informed our R&D team’s development of our display solutions as well as our mounts.  Our Slide Bracket mounting system is the crowning achievement of these efforts on the mounting side.  Tailored for precision alignment and easy access, slide brackets offer efficient, speedy installation and replacement.  Slide brackets can be used in a wide range of environments and may be affixed to walls, reinforcement frames or GPO US’ video wall floor stands. 
Most video wall-specific mounts currently on the market have a number of moving parts, which can complicate installation and alignment.  We at GPO US agree with da Vinci’s assertion that “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”.  This is the key to the success of our slide bracket mounts, as they feature no internal moving parts.  The Slide Bracket is essentially a frame with no hinges, joints or levers to complicate the installation and alignment process.
Both initial alignment and long-term maintenance of alignment are particular strengths of Slide Brackets.  Video wall displays can move side-to side within the slide bracket structure (3.94” left/right) providing access to devices (such and receivers, D/As or media players) positioned behind a given display without removal of the display from the mount.   The alignment of the displays is not altered during this side-to-side movement, as the slide tracks within the mounting structure ensure the maintenance of y-axis alignment.   X-axis alignment is regained when sets are returned to their fixed/installed position and side covers (also referred to as the “trim kit”) are reattached.

Slide brackets are affordable, easy to install, and particularly well-suited to video wall arrays with five or less horizontal rows of displays.  Slide brackets are perfectly acceptable for larger arrays.  However, a large number of sets may need to be removed in order to access problematic panels on or near the bottom of a larger (n x ≥5) array.  While our LCD video walls can be configured for compatibility with VESA-standard third-party mounts, you can purchase the whole solution:  Video Wall + Wall Mounting System from one manufacturer--- us!   Our slide bracket solutions can be used with our standard 46 inch and 55 inch video wall models and may also be combined with our video wall floor stands for an attractive, mobile, free-standing array.
