Hi there,

Another quick question, this time regarding LCD wall stands.

Is there such a stand that will not only allow you to tilt the TV whilst in situ, but also allow you to swivel the set?

It will be for a 37” set and I’d just like to ability to have the screen flush against the wall or pulled out from the wall.

Any advise welcome!

Thanks,


Charlie

I've seen such mounts for sale online but have always been dubious about their ability to do the job re. strength of wall fixing required. Any weight away from the wall will put extreme loading on the LCD mount and screws/bolts (i.e. lever effect).

Yes there are, and I've fitted a number of them - but I would say it's ESSENTIAL to fit them firmly on solid walls, not on stud walls or anything at all flimsy (and brick or stone walls would be better than breeze block!).

As soulboy77 says, it's puts a LOT of strain on the mounting point - an old solidly built house is probably more suitable than a modern one.
