What is the split you see between installing on ceilings versus installing on walls?

Wall Vs Ceilling Installation For Domes/Mini Domes
Jon Dillabaugh
Mar 04, 2016Depends on the application, but probably 50/50 between ceiling mounting and wall mounting with a bracket. Most of our outdoor domes tend to be wall mounted with a bracket. Most of the indoor are ceiling mounted.

Mar 04, 2016Thank you Jon!
For the indoors that are ceiling mounted, what is the split between recessed and surface mounted?
Jon Dillabaugh
Mar 04, 2016100% surface mount so far, but if ever a need for flush mount comes about, we wouldn't hesitate. Most clients would frown on the larger hole needed to flush mount.

Mar 04, 2016Very interesting. I would have thought the demand for a flush recessed mount would be much higher. Do you think it is purely because of having to cut a large hole?
Jon Dillabaugh
Mar 04, 2016Yes that would be my reason not to sell them. I don't like cutting big holes in anything if it can be avoided. And there is also the fact that most flush mounted domes really only hide a small portion above the surface. You are only hiding the back can, which isn't that big of a deal.

For ceiling mount with "micro" sized domes we use flush mount most of the time. The main factor is ceiling tile vs hard cap surface.
