Where Tono Camera Lifts Are Installed Worldwide
Houses of Worship
Hiding PTZ cameras during in-person services. Lowering for live streaming when needed. Used in churches, mosques, and temples across the USA, UK, Middle East, and India. The CLC 150 series is the most-specified Tono lift for high-ceiling sanctuaries.
Conference Rooms & Boardrooms
Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms. Camera hidden when the room is used for in-person meetings, drops automatically when a hybrid call begins. Integrates with Crestron, Control4, Q-SYS, and other major control systems.
Higher Education & Corporate Training
Hybrid classrooms and lecture halls. One camera for the speaker, one for the audience — the CLC 150DE dual lift handles both from a single ceiling fixture. Used in universities, training centers, and corporate learning facilities.
Broadcast Studios & Live Events
Concealing high-end PTZ cameras between productions. Protecting expensive cameras from set crew, stage lighting, and accidental contact. Suited for OTT studios, live event production, and corporate AV rental.
Government & Courtrooms
Discreet camera installations for hearings, parliamentary sessions, and government meetings. Enclosed models (CLC 40E, CLC 150E) provide a clean, professional ceiling finish.

Why Use a Camera Lift Instead of a Fixed Mount?
- Clean architecture. The ceiling stays free of visible camera hardware until the moment a camera is needed.
- Equipment protection. PTZ cameras costing thousands of dollars are protected from dust, accidental impact, and lighting heat between uses.
- Automation. Camera presence becomes a controlled event — linked to room booking, meeting start, or service schedule.
- Acoustic integrity. Hidden ceiling installation removes camera reflections, glare, and noise from the room environment.
- Future-proofing. When the camera is upgraded, the lift mechanism stays — only the camera changes.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a motorized camera lift?
A motorized camera lift is a ceiling-installed mechanism that raises and lowers a PTZ or broadcast camera at the press of a button. When retracted, the camera hides flush with the ceiling. When activated, the camera lowers silently into position.
Does Tono ship internationally?
Yes. Tono camera lifts ship to the USA, UK, EU, Middle East, Australia, and across Asia. Lead times vary by region — typically 3-6 weeks for international orders. Contact us for project pricing and shipping quotes.
Are Tono camera lifts certified for use in the USA, UK, or EU?
Tono products are CE compliant for EU and UK installations and RoHS certified. For specific certifications required by your project (UL, ETL, FCC, ESMA, SASO, AS/NZS), please contact our team for documentation.
What voltages are supported?
All Tono camera lifts are available in 110V (USA, Canada, Mexico, Japan) and 230V (India, UK, EU, Middle East, Australia, Asia). Custom voltages can be configured for specific projects.
What is the warranty?
Three-year warranty on the motor and mechanism. Extended warranty available for commercial installations.
What is the difference between an open and enclosed camera lift?
An open lift (CLC 40, CLC 150) lowers the camera on a platform below the ceiling. An enclosed lift (CLC 40E, CLC 150E) includes a full housing that closes flush with the ceiling, providing camera protection and a clean architectural finish.
How fast does the lift drop?
Drop time varies by model — typically 15-25 seconds for the CLC 40 series and 30-45 seconds for the long-drop CLC 150 series. Designed to be silent enough for live broadcast and recording environments.
Can I integrate with Crestron, Control4, or Q-SYS?
Yes. All Tono camera lifts support dry-contact triggers compatible with Crestron, Control4, Q-SYS, AMX, Extron, KNX, and other major AV control systems.
Are there local dealers in the USA, UK, or Middle East?
Yes — we have authorized dealers and AV integrators across major markets. Contact us with your project location and we will connect you with the nearest specifier.
Can the camera lift handle dual cameras?
Yes. The CLC 40DE (compact) and CLC 150DE (long-drop) models are built specifically for dual-camera installations — typically one speaker-facing and one audience-facing camera in a single ceiling fixture.
