TV Brackets

Flush mount TV Wall brackets

Flat, slim and flush mount TV Wall brackets

These types of TV brackets are often chosen by people where it is important to mount the TV as close as possible to the wall or as they tend to be the cheapest option, where people are working to a tight budget. Flush mount tv brackets are also often of interest to people with LED TV’s. This is because LED TV’s are extremely thin and give a very modern slimline look like that of a picture mounted on a wall, to further enhance this look a flush mount tv bracket will make an ideal LED TV bracket.

When faced with choosing, how can you be sure you have taken the right things into account and how do know it will fit your TV?

Let’s first look at the key requirement, selecting one to fit the TV.  Firstly, turn your TV around and find the 4 fixings holes in the back of the flat screen; to fit a wall mounting bracket these must be in a square or more commonly a rectangle shape.

Measure the distances apart in millimetres and ensure your bracket is bigger than these sizes for both width and height.

If your TV is supplied with its VESA mounting sizes this just means the manufacturer has done the measuring for you and therefore you again need to check your VESA size is smaller than the maximum size the bracket can accommodate.

Once you are sure the bracket will correctly fit, next check the weight of your TV.   TVs are expensive and to be safe we always recommend the bracket should be certified to hold a minimum of a third more.  At www.intecbrackets.co.uk all our brackets are detailed for exact specifications and most are certified to an impressive 75Kgs giving you an even bigger margin of safety.

Lastly check the bracket is suitable to fit to your wall.  If you have stud or partition walls your TV wall bracket must be long enough to cover and safely screw into two of the upright wooden studs behind the plasterboard.  On brackets for smaller size TVs this is sometimes not possible and you will need to either buy a bracket with a wider wall back plate or fit a crossmember between the studs.

There’s just one final piece of advice and that is to check there will enough room behind your TV to get the cables into the TV.  Flat or flush TV brackets mount the TV very close to the wall and therefore there is only a small space for the inputs and wiring to the screen.

Happy hunting.
