Brick Wall Behind Fireplace With Tv Above

We have a very deep set wall bc of a massive stone fireplace that extends over 24” from wall in main living area We did NOT want to have TV in the mantle but the TV was not viewable for all in room if guests were watching sports with us This mounting allowed us to pull and pivot past the fireplace and still stow it back and out of sight when not in use. Fantastic !!

We purchased this TV mount to enable the TV to extend beyond the end of a fireplace. The TV is recessed in a pocket between the fireplace and a window. This mount allows us to telescope and turn the TV so all can see beyond the fireplace. I consider the unit exceptionally well-constructed and designed. The mounting kit contains a variety of fasteners to anchor the unit to the wall. In our case, we needed our own lag screws to secure the frame to the stud pattern on the wall. The unit is is rather ornery and cumbersome to install. Plan on two people to install. The mounting template works well. But it is important to measure the mounting slots in the unit's frame to ensure the one's chosen align with the wall stud's locations. I recommend using a level and drawing a centerline for the fasteners to follow. Pre-drill holes into the wall studs. I strongly recommend not mounting through the drywall with plastic expansion anchors. There will be a lot of bearing on a material that is not designed for long-term structural integrity. We use all of the mount's 40" extension. It certainly meets our needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] MOUNT- it Height an Adjustable Fireplace TV Mount with a Spring that makes hanging a TV over the fireplace work. It comes with instructions, but there is a video that will help you install it which is a huge help. My advice is to use two people because it's rather heavy and it makes installation go smoothly. Once it was in place my 70-inch TV was ready for the test. You can pull the TV down and push it up when you're finished. I am not sure how it works but the ease of using the up and down and tilt features is so smooth. You don't need both hands to do this with most mounts, this glides with really a touch of your finger. It's perfect for those who have a specific way of wanting to watch TV. My boyfriend likes it tilted and pulled down me I like it up and turned a bit. So we compromise and switch off while watching our shows. It is perfect for the wall above the fireplace or I don't see why you need a fireplace you could use this TV Mount on any wall. I highly recommend it.

I have these weird coves next to my fireplace that make it impossible to see a tv from everywhere in the room with any traditional stand or wall mount. These one worked perfectly and is extremely sturdy. It may be the only one on the market that would. A few things. Be careful with the socket wrench putting it up since the powder coat can chip and it did for me. The next is remember to oil the extension arm or it will not move with weight on it. Also make you understand where your studs are in the wall. I have a bay window in the room behind this corner and none of the wall construction cases in the instructions actually applied to my wall. This is a good one put might take more thought to put up.

Using it to mount my tv over a stone fireplace.

Very happy with the quality of this product. Very strong and operates smoothly. I installed it to a brick fireplace. The instructions say use the provided paper template to mark the locations of the holes to be drilled in the brick. I found that the vertical spacing between the top set of holes and the bottom set of holes needs to be VERY precise. I found that it's easy for the drill bit to "wander" a little bit when drilling on the marks into the rough brick face the fireplace has. Drifting a bit side to side was not a problem. Drifting a bit up or down was a problem lining up with the bracket. I ended up drilling two top holes and then temporarily mounting the bracket to those holes, then used the bracket itself to locate the remaining holes on the top and bottom. I used a smaller drill bit to create starter holes, then removed the bracket and finished drilling the holes with the correct size drill bit. A little extra work but the holes lined up perfectly with the bracket and it's rock solid.

Perfect length. We uses this for our tv above the fireplace. It was treaded though to cabinets on the side of the fireplace.

Above and beyond my expectations!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We hung this Above fireplace As A Picture frame and TV all in one. The tv is amazing quality picture and being able to show off all this pictures on your phone on a classy picture frame is amazing. People are wowed by the tv.

Perfect for over the fireplace so the tv can be both lowered to eye level and swiveled to face seating.
