Does this pole screw into the ceiling? I'd like one that I know will not fall over.

No it doesn't screw into the ceiling...trust me you wont fall if you secure the beams.

It will not fall... it doesn't actually screw into the ceiling but has a suction kind of top with a metal bar that presses against the ceiling. I've had mine for quite awhile and do flip, turns, spins, and every kind of trick on it and it's never budged! I've even had grown men play around on it and it held up perfect!

No it does not screw into the ceiling I have one and it socks I have only used it twice and each time it falls. Hope this helps.

Yes Sabrina, it does. I put it up for my girlfriend. She goes pretty wild on it, it's sturdy top and bottom.

No it doesn't have to be screwed, but I'm not sure if it has the ability to be screwed in the ceiling.

No it does not screw into the ceiling, however the base is very sturdy. It will not damage the floor or ceiling, which is nice

It screws into the ceiling. I installed mine a couple months ago, and it works great.

Not that I'm aware of...the frame doesn't have anything that would support a center pole...

No do not nail it to the ceiling. It is very light plastic ( well maybe something more than plastic, but light. The ceiling fixture will hold it securely to the ceiling.

Without being screwed in? Not very well. The base is very light so the weight isn't distributed evenly, that being said it needs to be screwed in or it would be prone to tipping over quite easily.

Hi Albert. Technically you can do this - the bolts in the pole would hold the TV up the same way they would down, the tilt adjustment is symmetrical so you can adjust up or down. My only warning is that on a ceiling, there is much less of an opportunity to bump the mount with any serious force. On the ground/floor you could lean on it, fall back on it, or any number of other similar circumstances and the torque from a heavy hit would bend or break this mount pretty easily - its not heavy duty by any means. Hope that helps, let me know if I can provide any other info. Cheers!

mine stays in place without a base. The pole is snug in the opening. I don't have a problem with them and the one I have now is my second one.

It won't clamp securely to a round pole. It's best to clamp it to a shelf. It supports the weight of the shade just fine. But beware of the threads on the shade. They aren't very secure.

It does not have to be screwed in at all. It suction to the ceiling. Hope it helps u.

We hung ours from the ceiling on an I-hook, screwed into a ceiling beam. Had to purchase our own hanging devices; heavy duty rope and clips. My husband can tie crazy knots so I knew it would be secure! I don't know that it is recommended by the manufacturer, but it worked for us since we had no room for the stand.

Its put in place by pressure. The pole extends and the pressure holds it in place. Its very sturdy. Make sure you place it on beams not empty spaces between the ceiling.

Yes. You tighten it up with a huge threads on the inside of the pole. There is rubber on both ends that will keep it from sliding on the carpet. Because you will have it stretched tight into the ceiling and carpet it won't move. You'll end up with an indention on the carpet as if a heavy piece of furniture was setting there. The pole is easy to assemble and easy to move around until you find the perfect spot for it. We own 6 of them. I highly recommend it. The ones we have do not have any attachments...like arms...on the poles.

Hi Serene, I personally don't have any issue with this at all. It has a nice twist and lock feature so you extend the pole to get the length you'd like and lock it in place ;-) I hope this helps!

It is specifically designed for a drop in ceiling. To mount it otherwise would require some substantial cobbling.

I'm going to guess yes because I just took mine down to move and there is a circular ring from the rubber where my pole was even though my ceiling was smooth..It depends on what kind of texture you are talking about too because remember,that pole is going to be tight to your ceiling under a stud so your choices of a mounting spot are limited to that as well.You definatly want it to be tight and level most of all for safety.Definatly leveling is important.

My wife said that she has not had a problem with it falling over. Do you have one, and does it tend to fall over?

This is a tension pole, but it can also be mounted to the ceiling if preferred. Thank you for shopping with DGS Novelties!
