Rift Wall mounting

FlyingScotsman · 28 Jul 2018 at 14:08

Was looking for some advice on wall mouting brackets for the rift sensors, I am currently on 2 sensors and about to purchase a 3rd one, but ideally would like all 3 sensors up on the wall.

I used security camera mounts. Let me see if I can get the exact model for you.

Yeah, I if you search for Shappy 3 pack. They come in black or white.

Do the threads on them fit into the bottom of the rift sensors? @melmac

Yes, they do, they are a perfect fit

I had a photograph showing them mounted on my wall, but Imgur seems to have deleted all my albums for some reason!!

Some people have used these mall mounts

In the review part there some pictures of them being used with rift sensors..

I used some cheap self-adhesive car camera mounts.

I went the easiest (and cheapest) route. Made out of soft wood from DIY store that I had in the shed. All I used was a Cordless drill,Jigsaw, Picture Hanging Strip and White paint

It looks something like this

Thats what I ordered after Melmac's recommendation, got from Amazon. Will get them fitted when back from offshore.

Chaparral that is how i did mine I also bought a rug almost the same size as my play area so i know when i am going too far.

The mounts pictured above are exactly what I've used to (ceiling) mount my Rift sensors. I didn't even screw them into the ceiling, I just ran a bead of No More Nails around the mount and pressed them into place and wiped clean. I figured that should I ever wish to remove them, a quick knock with a hammer will move it and a bit of paint damage is easier to repair than 3 holes. Either way, they've been solid for about a year and haven't budged at all.

I have these, they're great.

I picked up some adhesive swivel camera mounts off of amazon and they've been perfect for me. Had em up for over a year and still solid.

I have very similar ones ... and as light as they are even with the camera on it, I've only used a single screw.

i used the shappy 3 pack too very good and easy to put up.

Got them waiting for me getting back onshore, plus extra sensor.
