There are an excess of TV brackets available on the market, with a plethora of different designs and price tags. Which one is right for your television?
Here are some simple tips to help you avoid the pitfalls of buying the wrong TV bracket.
Speaker Mount Brackets
Ensure your TV is the correct size for the bracket and ensure it has the correct VESA spacing. VESA spacing is the distance between the mounting holes on the back of your TV, smaller TV's tend to have VESA 100 or VESA 200 spacing, VESA 100 means there are 4 holes laid out in a square shape with 100mm between each hole. Bigger televisions usually use VESA 400, ensure the bracket you are buying is VESA compatible and it has the correct VESA fitting.
Make sure the TV bracket you buy has space to run the cabling, it's all well and good mounting your beautiful flat panel TV on the wall, but if you can't plug it in what's the point?
Decide where you are going to run your cabling and where you are going to place your DVD player etc. Big AV the online TV accessories superstore offer an excellent wall mounted shelf complete with cable management, these can be a great buy to keep everything neat and tidy.
Decide if you want a slim bracket that gets as close to the wall as possible, if this idea appeals to you be aware you will lose swivel and tilting facilities available on other brackets which don't get as close to the wall.
Tilt brackets usually have a 15 degree tilt and are perfect for when a TV is mounted quite high, this type of bracket is essential in some cases.
Swivel brackets, there are a number of swivel TV brackets available; some incorporate the tilt facility some do not, so check this before you order. There are 2 types of swivel mechanism, a cantilever arm is often used, this type of mechanism allows the TV to be pulled out, rotated to almost any angle and pushed flat against the wall, if you need to move the TV frequently this is the type of bracket you want. The other type of swivel bracket needs to be loosened moved and tightened (usually with a screwdriver); this type is not as flexible but is more suited to locations where stability is a priority.
In a nutshell-
1) Check the overall size of your TV and the brackets max capability, also check the TV's mounting holes to ensure compatibility.
2) Think about the cabling before ordering make sure you will have room to plug your TV in and a system to take care of the loose wiring.
3) Think about where you want to place your other equipment.
4) Decide if you want a flat, tilting, or swiveling and tilting bracket.
