Chief Launches Next-Gen Tempo Floor Support Mount for Flexible Installations

News / 17.02.26

Chief has unveiled the Tempo Floor Support Mount, the next evolution of its trusted AVSFSS mounting platform. Designed to meet the demands of larger displays, tighter project timelines, and higher aesthetic expectations, Tempo delivers structural ability, integrates storage, and refined architectural styling, all without relying on wall strength.


For integrators facing uncertain wall construction or challenging installation conditions, Tempo provides a confident, floor-supported solution that simplifies specification and elevates the finished result.


An Evolution of a Proven Design

Building on the foundation of Chief’s original floor-supported mounting system, the Tempo Floor Support Mount introduces a redesigned two-column architecture that transfers the full weight of the display directly to the floor.


This approach eliminates the need to locate studs or reinforce walls, making it ideal for:


  • Metal stud construction
  • Glass or decorative wall surfaces
  • Historic buildings
  • Spaces where wall integrity is unknown


By removing reliance on wall structure, Tempo reduces installation risk while maintaining precise alignment and long-term stability.


Higher Capacity for Larger Displays

As display sizes continue to increase across corporate, education, and public environments, mounting solutions must evolve. Tempo has been engineered with increased weight capacity, supporting:


  • Single extra-large displays
  • Ultrawide 21:9 displays
  • Dual displays up to 98” (with optional mount accessories)


This expanded capability allows integrators to standardise on one mounting platform across a range of room types, simplifying project planning and procurement.


All-in-One Mounting & Storage Solution

Tempo is more than a display mount - it is a complete mounting and system organisation platform.


Each configuration includes:


  • The display mount (no separate purchase required)
  • Universal video bar mount
  • Integrated cable management channel
  • Storage area for small AV devices
  • Two 15” x 10” Lever Lock panels providing 2RU of rack storage
  • PET felt front covers or optional lockable wood doors


By combining mounting and storage in one system, Tempo reduces the need for additional cabinetry while maintaining a clean, professional finish.


Designed for Real-World Installation Challenges

Developed directly from installer feedback, Tempo incorporates features that improve on-site flexibility and reduce unexpected obstacles.


Key enhancements include:


  • Adjustable cabinet depth to accommodate baseboard moulding and wall protrusions
  • Lateral shift capability for precise display positioning
  • Display mount interface with a ±0.375” (9.5mm) level adjustment


These refinements allow integrators to work around architectural constraints without custom fabrication and field modification, preserving both efficiency and aesthetic precision.


Refined Architectural Aesthetics

Tempo delivers a modern, furniture-grade appearance suited to contemporary interiors.


Available finishes include:


  • Dark Colourway: Black powder coat with charcoal grey PET felt
  • Light Colourway: White powder coat with silver grey PET felt
  • Optional Lockable Wood Door Kit: Matches Middle Atlantic furniture colourways for a premium finish


Built for Today’s Integrators

“The latest Tempo Floor Support Mount reflects how integrators are working today - larger displays, tighter timelines, and higher expectations for both performance and appearance,” said David Albright, Senior Product Manager for Chief. “By increasing and integrating modern storage, mounting, and premium options into one platform, Tempo helps installers reduce risk while delivering a finished result that their customers expect.”


A Smarter Way to Mount Larger Displays

The Tempo Floor Support Mount represents the next stage in floor-supported AV mounting, combining:


  • Structural independence from wall integrity
  • Higher display capacity
  • Integrates storage and cable management
  • Architectural-grade aesthetics
  • Installer-focused adjustability


Whether supporting a single XL display or dual monitors in a corporate boardroom, education facility, or public space, Tempo delivers flexibility, stability, and style - all within a unified, future-ready mounting platform.
