OmniMount Launches Product Custom-Designed for the Hospitality Industry
Posted on Monday, July 19, 2010

The HM1 is a smart and functional furniture mount that offers the security critical to hospitality-related installations.

Phoenix, AZ – OmniMount, dedicated to being a one-stop shop for professional products, today announces the launch of their HM1, a flat panel furniture mount that offers quality construction and built-in security for flat panels up to 37-inches. The HM1 is the first product offering by the company targeted specifically to the hospitality market.

OmniMount’s new HM1 was designed for situations where wall mounting a flat panel isn’t preferred or possible. This unique product mounts flat panels securely to a piece of furniture in one of two ways, either through surface with the included retention ring or on surface with screws or adhesive. An adjustable swivel base stops at 0, 45° or 90° in one or both directions to prevent wall or wire damage.

The HM1 is designed with a small footprint and self-concealing hardware for a clean appearance and has all Delrin™ bearings so the flat panel is sure to rotate smoothly. Integrated cable management hides wires from panel through VESA mounting plate, which is designed with numerous 8mm holes and center cut-outs for greater panel compatibility and choice in panel placement. A media device or optional security box can mount directly on back of the VESA mounting plate and security hardware along with padlock compatibility prevents tampering or theft.

“Our commercial division is very focused on fulfilling the A/V accessory needs of the hospitality market,” stated Hal Truax, the director of the commercial division for OmniMount. “This product is only one of many custom pieces we’re developing that installers need for mass installs in hotels, restaurants and bars.”

OmniMount is known for its quick installation products and the HM1 is no exception. Designed to be assembled quickly, this product is ideal for high-volume jobs and ships with a complete Grade 5 hardware kit to fit any surface thickness (0.5 – 3.5 inches). An optional 4-inch retention collar for additional height is available as an accessory. Designed and engineered in the USA, the HM1 is currently available and shipping.
