Ipad wall dock?

Hi all, just wondering if anyone could recommend a supplier (preferably located in Australia) for a wall mount iPad dock that includes a charger. The idea is that instead of a traditional touch screen is to mount an iPad to the wall so as that the customer can have access to their c-bus, security and intercom etc through apps installed on the iPad. Also if anyone else has done this and has any tips, recommendations or warnings it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I am very happy with my iPort control mount mini

The Australian distributer is a Amber technology

 

Thanks for the replies, I will check them out. I swear I did do a forum search, must have had a boys look.

 

iPad Frame

Thanks guys for pointing to my iPad frame

I developed my iPad frame for exactly this reason. I wanted to use an iPad to control CBus, RTI , Ness etc, but couldn't find a mount that matched the Clipsal switches etc.

Clients have used them in various combination of installs , eg vnc to a pc running homegate, Ness ipad app, wiser app, Rti app. etc.

In the past I used touch screen computers, but this was expensive to buy and also expensive to repair/replace.

The iPads have proved a great solution, relatively large screen, relatively cheap to install/replace.

 

I’m just about to release Gen 2 of my iPad wall mounts. Initially on-wall but in wall will also be available . They currently support the iPad 8 and 7 and the IPad Air 4. There will be the option of zen white and black, Saturn pure white and stainless. Other colours are available on request. I have attached a short video of installing and iPad 8 in my new wall mount.

 

We've also developed an iPad frame designed to replace the old c-bus colour touchscreens, especially when used with SHAC/NAC. The white one is a nice replacement for the Pure White/Ocean Mist colour touchscreen. Details here:

We've also hidden the home button to try to avoid the "iPad stuck up on a wall look". You rarely need to use the home button, and we've posted a number of videos explaining that, and other tips for using an iPad on the wall. Take a look:
