Samsung The Frame Cannot Mount Over Fireplace

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.

I am using the LSTU mount to hold my 55 Samsung above my fireplace. I recently had some work done to my house which included adding a new mantle for the fire place. The low profile mount really adds to the overall appearance I was looking for and I'm happy with the way my TV now hugs the wall. Chief makes some great products and I'm glad I found this one!

Using it to mount my tv over a stone fireplace.

Perfect choice for an over the fireplace mount. Absolutely sturdy and hidden.

Easy to install and looks very well built. I used it to hang 65 inch samsung tv over my fireplace.

I purchased my Frame TV about a year ago, and it has exceeded my expectations. I have it mounted above the mantle on my fireplace, making it easy to showcase artwork or watch my favorite sports teams with just a quick click of the remote. I've even uploaded family pictures from my phone to display on the Frame TV. Without hesitation, I would recommend it to anyone who wants a television that also looks like a piece of art or a display of family photos above their fireplace.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought The Frame to go above our fireplace in our new home and what good buy! We love the versatility of it being both a piece art and our entertainment hub for movie nights! It has great picture and sound as well as a variety of smart features and apps that make it a breeze to use. We also love the fact that it is Alexa enabled so it blend seamlessly into our smart devices. Thanks Samsung for a true winner!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I personally have never been a huge fan of the TV over the Fireplace, but the Samsung Frame TV has changed my view entirely. It’s refreshing to see the Digital Art when the TV is off for most of the day instead of a big blank screen.

Over the years Samsung memory devices have never failed me, other manufacturers’ memory devices have.failed.
