I remixed a UniFi 6E AP mount to work on Ikea Skadis. I saw another mount for this AP on the site, but it was not horizontal, which is what the radiation patterns on UniFi APs are optimized for (they are generally meant to be mounted on a ceiling).

My version adds a hole at the top and is for use with Panduit cable ties like these (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DDE5Q0O/ref=twister_B00WX0IKNE?th=1). However, I included the Fusion file, so feel free to resize these for your needs. I should also note that they did not need support.

I used M3 screws for mounting along with the nuts included with the AP the length should probably be over 12mm (I used 16mm). 

I printed in PC with a 0.4mm nozzle with supports only on the hooks at 15% infill density and 100% on the hooks. However, one of my hooks did end up snapping, so if anyone is up to making a Skadis nut version, I think this project would benefit from that. 

Also, FYI, this is compatible with other AP models like the U6-LR or the U7 Pro (what I mounted), etc. 

 

V2 UPDATE:

Virtech made a much better front section with more places to slip the Ethernet cable through making mount easier I added this front section to the model. I would recommend it over the original.
