A video projector and mounting assembly that securely mounts and protects the projector from theft. A video projector unit is adapted with a housing that defines a through bore extending completely through the housing from top to bottom. A suspension member attached to an overhead structure is inserted through the hole with a portion thereof projecting from the bottom of the projector. A projector mount is secured to the end of the projecting portion of the overhead suspension member in locking relation therewith such that the projector may not be removed without first unlocking and removing the mount. The mount is preferably adapted with openings to allow for access to the projector controls. Tilt adjustment of the projector is facilitated by rotatably adjustable fasteners in threaded engagement with the mount. The projector and mount may include mating concave and convex surfaces to provide for adjustment in tilt, pan, and yaw axes.
