Posted March 15th, 2010 by brownWorried about the installation of your flat screen TV? No need to worry any more if you read this article. When you go for wall mounting of your TV, the wall mount brackets are the first thing that you will require.
Now, there are three types of brackets used in TV wall mounting and which form the basis of the three types of wall mounting of your flat screen. The three types of wall mount brackets are low low-profile, tilting and full-motion wall mount. They have their own advantages and disadvantages as well. Let’s look at the different Flat Screen TV Wall Mounts
Low-Profile TV Wall Mount
A low-profile wall mount bracket is considered to be the easiest and simplest one to mount and is the most cost-effective when compared to other two types of the available wall mounts. The wall mounting of a TV using a low-profile bracket is very similar to hanging a portrait on the wall. Despite being an easiest way to install, it comes with a drawback that your TV cannot be moved from its position when you wall mount it. Due to this drawback, you face difficulties when you try to change cables of your TV. Since it’s a flat panel and mounted on a wall, you will have to physically take the TV out of the wall every time when you need to change its cables.
TV Wall Mount Using Tilting Brackets
These brackets are bit costlier than the low-profile ones but are cheaper than the full-motion wall mounting brackets. In general, tilting TV mount is not very difficult and is very much similar to a low-profile mount. The key benefit that a titling wall mounting gives you that you will be able to set your vertical angle viewing, which is not possible in a low-profile mount. The tilting wall mounts have a pivot in the middle of the mounting brackets. This pivot helps to maintain a great viewing angle as per the convenience of the viewer. There is no problem, like a low profile mount, when you change cables.
Full-Motion Installation of Flat TV
Full-motion TV wall mount is costlier than the two but gives you a liberty of moving your wall mounted TV as per your convenience. Other two types of the mounts are less expensive than a full-motion mount. These are generally complex to install. These wall mounts are difficult to install due to the moving arms they use to have. And thus, you will need 2-3 extra men to help you try to hang your TV on the wall using a full-motion mount bracket.
