The present invention comprises a mounting pedestal for a device, such as a laser scanner. The mount is generally comprised of a base, a triangle bracket and an attachment screw. The base has a base plate and a support attached to the top of the base plate. The support is hollow, preferably cylindrical in shape, has an access opening on the side and a central opening on top. A triangle bracket is bolted onto the top of the support, covering the central opening on the support. The triangle bracket houses a pivot bracket. The attachment screw fits through and is engaged by the pivot bracket on the triangle bracket. A device, such as a laser scanner, is supported by the triangle bracket and is fixed in place by the threads on the attachment screw. The attachment screw is accessed and can be tightened or loosened through the access opening on the support.
