Featured Project
Drop Down Lift - Lake Oconee, Ga
Project Type: Hidden TV's
The client’s interior designer on this particular project threw down a challenge. She wanted a flat panel TV that would come down from the ceiling and allow the client to view the TV from her master bedroom and the adjoining office. We found a ceiling lift from one of our partners (Chief Manufacturing).
We were excited to find out that this was a completely enclosed TV lift system. This unit holds a flatscreen in the ceiling, lowers it on command, tilts it outwards, and swivels the TV for optimal viewing. The swivel can rotate the TV 360-degrees, and the tilting module can extend the screen forward to 30-degrees. We automated it with a Crestron touch screen hand held controller. All her friends and neighbors are jealous!
The drop-down or pop-down lift is essentially the opposite of the pop-up. The mechanism is concealed either in the ceiling or a cabinet soffit. When the TV is turned on, the mechanism lowers down from the cabinet work or ceiling above and conceals whatever is behind the TV. This system works well if it is planned in advance with an architect and designer.
