Device Information

Overview

The Open Universal Mounting Plate is a simple mounting option for assistive devices that do not have integrated mounting hardware. This device uses hook and loop fastener strips to attach to an assistive device allowing it to be mounted with standard ¼”-20 mounts, like those found on readily available camera mounting accessories.

How To Use

For full usage details please refer to the User Quick Guide.


Attaching Devices

Use hook and loop fastener strips to secure one or more devices to the mounting surface. 


Mounting

With your device(s) attached to the mounting surface, thread your mounting system into the internal threads of the mounting plate and lock it in your preferred orientation


Compatibility

The mounting plate excepts external ¼” – 20 threads like the ones commonly used in camera mounting systems. There are three available mounting plate sizes that can be selected to match the devices you wish to mount. There are also three options for threaded inserts with 5/16”, 7/16”, and 9/16” lengths of threads. Refer to the Sizing Chart for more information on sizing options.
