Also don’t hang it over a fireplace that is in use as heat rising may damage the already hot components.

I wouldn’t advise mounting into brick but if you do make sure they’re the older solid ones and not the new hollow ones otherwise under the weight it may just collapse your mount.

Comment on TV Wall Mounting Brackets, What Do I Need To Consider by Steve

Nice choice of TV.

For starter decided where in the room you want to mount it and if you want it flat against the wall, if you want some degree of tilt or whether you need it to pull away from the wall and turn left and right.

Personally I think these TV’s look best mounted flat on the wall. If this is what you want then you just need decent quality TV Wall Mounting Brackets thats going to hold the weight of your TV and come with all the fixings your need to put it on your wall.

If you’re not sure buy a bracket from a supplier you can talk to on the phone for help and buy a bracket from a company that offers post sales support.

Comment on TV Wall Mounting Brackets, What Do I Need To Consider by Pioneer

In order to obtain proper bracket you will need to know two pieces on information. First one is the TV size in inches which you probably already know. 32”? 50”? Next piece of info is the TV’s weight. You can find it in the manual, item description of retailer, or if all else fails Google search the weight of you TV model. Once you have these numbers you are ready to get your bracket. All brackets should be build universally so as long as you fall within the giver parameters and limits you will be fine 99.9% of the time. There are three major types of TV mounting brackets. It is up to you to pick the right one for your needs. First kind is a full motion wall mounting bracket that can be used to extended the TV up to 24” from the wall on some models and can be turned in all directions if need. The upside is obvious, the ability to turn the TV in any direction and angle, however the down side is that they are 3-4 times as expensive than other mounting brackets. The second type of bracket is the tilting wall mounting bracket that is not used to extend the TV, but to turn it up or down in limited range. The upside of these brackets is that they are frailly low profile, but do not offer the flexibility. However they are priced the most frailly. There is a third listed type called low profile mounting brackets however there are only very few, so they are not even worth mentioning.

Don’t get sucked into believing that you will have to buy $200 bracket from stores. If you buy online you will get the same quality for half the price. I personally recommend Newegg or Amazon. Just pick your sizes and weights correctly and read few customer reviews and ratings.

Comment on LCD Monitor Wall Mount – Where Are The Wires? by Sullivan

Same as the wires that energize your existing wall outlets: They’re inside the walls.

This means that you have to cut a hole in the wall behind the TV and another directly below it near the floor (usually that will be concealed by a low cabinet or something). You run wires through the wall between the two holes. Into each hole you install an outlet box, an outlet plate with TV connections, and an outlet cover. Lots of work.

Comment on Flat Screen Install – How Far Above The Floor. by intheleast

You are supposed to sit in the seat that you normally use to watch TV. The center of the screen should be at eye level when you are seated, or close to it.

That is the preferred mounting method recommended by all television manufacturers. I usually see the sets mounted higher on the wall, but that would be the preferred height since it allows you the most comfortable view of the set.

The bottom of mine is 51 inches off the floor, but my mount is a tilting one that angles the TV down about 10 degrees or so. If you flat mount it, you may want it lower.

If you flat mount it, the ideal height would be to mount the middle of the TV at your eye level when you are seated in your normal TV viewing position. Obviously, if your mount allows the set to be tilted, you can mount it higher without causing discomfort.

It is all a trade off of conflicting items. A lot of sets get damaged by kids, dogs, accidently throwing of video game controllers, etc, and mounting it higher gets the set away from more of those risks.
