Streamlined Installation
With the Tempo Flat Panel In-Wall Mount System, contractors can install in-wall boxes during the rough-in construction phase.

The system also boasts an industry-exclusive feature: three types of knockouts per box, which provides greater flexibility for vertical and horizontal cabling between storage boxes. Moreover, the mount supports displays 65 inches and larger and is weight-rated up to 250 pounds (113kg), making it ideal for heavy-duty applications.
The Tempo In-Wall Mount System also offers one inch of post-install leveling for precision-alignment in dual display installations. Other features include display depth adjustment options which cater to ADA compliance and storage behind the display. Plus, the system allows for a variety of tilt positions to eliminate screen glare and reflections.
Easy Installation
The system includes hardware and toggle anchors to simplify the installation process. The company has also introduced at-a-glance identification with end-user touchpoint screws coloured in silver and assembly screws in black for easier end-user training after commissioning.
