Patent attributes
Described, herein, is an installation apparatus and method which may permit the safe and rapid mounting of an electrical device (e.g., a Wi-Fi access point or a surveillance camera) onto an elevated support surface (e.g., a wall, a post, or a ceiling). Accordingly, the installation apparatus may include a housing, a mount, and an elongated handle. During use, the mount may be configured to be affixed to the elevated support surface. Additionally, the elongated handle may be configured to selectively couple to the housing enabling a user to lift the housing to the mount on the elevated support surface. Subsequent to the user lifting the housing to the mount, the housing may be configured to selectively couple to the housing, securing the housing to the mount.
