Hi All,

I am looking to mount my TV above a Non functional fireplace (brick).

Bit confusing as so many people say spend more and some say just get a £20-50) job.

Is there any justification in spending more money on a wall bracket? I am looking for something that extends away from the wall, up, down, left and right, think its called a Cantilever.

Is it worth getting something like this and spending that amount of money?

Currently I have a Panasonic 42", weighs about 30kg

Option 1 - This one dosnt say Cantilever but does say Pushes In+Out, Tilts Up+Down,Swivels Left+Right, it also mentions cable management where the others do not, so not sure if they actually have cable management or not.
Option 2 - Dosnt mention cable management, not sure if it is was just left out in the decription?
Option 3 - Dosnt mention cable management, not sure if it is was just left out in the decription?

Last one is about £10 more but leaves room for a bigger TV if I upgrade.

Thanks
 
Wow, those are some pricey TV brackets, but it does look pretty solid. Especially, in comparison to something I bought this weekend, a TV Stand with bracket/mount for TVs upto 50", TV is about 25-30 from the first/top shelf.
 
Wow, they are really pricey!!!

I used one from Amazon (Invision® TV Wall Mount Bracket - New Slim Line Design With Cantilever Arm Tilt & Swivel Feature For 26 - 55 inch TV Screens) which cost me £26 for my 42inch Panasonic Plasma and it's perfect!!

Only thing I did do was ditch the fixings that came with it and got some decent coach bolts from Wickes to secure it to the wall.

which Panasonic Plasma do you have? i have the TH-42PZ80B, do you know if this will fit?

How did you find mounting it? easy?
 
I've got a TH-42PX80B adn recently got this, as above tho I replaced the wall fixings with larger ones. Also used a few more fixings than it states in the leaflet. Think I did 4 along the top and 4 along the bottom

If a grown man can hang on it without it moving/pulling out then I'm sure the TV will be fine :)

I'm still looking at upgrading to a 60" TV and as long as the VESA brackets fit the new TV I'll happily continue using this mount.

Unless you want something with more movement I have no qualms recommending this cheap n cheerful chappy :)
 
Thanks ~Divine~Wind~ - I did think about this type but decided I wanted something with more movement, side to side and tilt forward\back etc
 
valve90210,

what TV model do you have, Just having a look at mine ( TH-42PZ80B) and i think the back bracket mounting holes are about 660(W) x 450(H), well, this is what it looks like according to one of the bracket recommendations in the manual. this is a link to one of their brackets

So If i get this one LINK Im guessing it wont fit?

Oh, and this is the manual for my TV.

Sorry, I completely forgot about the this thread, my tv is a 42X10, so a few years old now but I didn't have any problems with the mount, there were loads of holes for all sorts of different configurations of mounting holes I can't say for sure if it'll fit yours but was fine with mine.

It's a really well made bracket, and offers a good range of movement and adjustment
 
On the pic of the extending arm bracket I have, the two pieces that attach to the tv, they are actually separate pieces that detach from the back plate of the mount and I believe can also mount sideways so it might be possible, though as you say your mounting points are rather further apart than mine
