What TV bracket?

[George]

Hello, 

 

Due to having small children and wanting to tidy up the corner of my living room I'd like to put the TV onto an arm bracket.

 

 

The plan view is like this:

 

 

The outer walls (those dimensioned) have internal wall insulation and while I do have the through fixings, it'd be simpler to just hook onto the brick inglenook wall. But I can't work out which swinging arm TV mounts allow rotation beyond 90 degrees.

 

Does anyone know of any which would do this?

 

If not I'll just have to attach to the insulated walls. 

 

Thanks.

Haven’t seen anything specifically like that but I mounted similarly using a big adjustable mount that had two folding arms to allow it to pull out and turn either way, if both arms unfolded then it would reach the side. Bear in mind the fixings and cantilever load mounting from one side. These loads on the fixing will be many times that of centrally mounting.

I hope it is a modern LED lightweight 40" tv not my prehistoric (takes 2 to lift it) plasma!!!!!

I always worry about things like this . Currently in the incomplete lounge I just have 3x2 vertical to support plasterboard once ready . Really I suppose I need to fix osb or similar inbetween them for where the tv is going . Planning a big 60” ; much to swmbo’s pleasure 😉

I had 89mm x 38mm CLS studwork, and where the TV bracket was to go, I just glued and screwed a load more noggins and studs to take the bracket. Mine was only a 48" though and Wendy thought it was quite big enough.

Yeah . I’m not exactly sure where it will go though . Sod’s Law I place it where no noggins are . I like a biggie .

Thanks all. The bracket finder was a good link - after some searching I can't seem to find anything with enough reach and rotation.

 

I think what i'll do is attach a thick bit of plywood to the outside wall, or a few battens, (painted appropriately) then attach the bracket to that.

 

Trying to get lots of thermal break stand off fixings at close enough centres for a bracket would not be feasible, but plywood/battens will give me much wider tolerance.
