Wall mount / bracket question

[mac_oasis]

omg, i better standby a measuring tape when they deliver the TV...but seriously this is the 65" model :

anyway regardless of the size, my main issue is the pvc piping (for the fibre optic cable) running vertically on the wall where i plan to mount the TV, i am looking at options NOT because of style but the salesman said the free normal wall mount will damage my fibre optic cable. can you please check if your mount is totally flush against the wall? if there is a vertical pvc pipe (abt 1cm thick, 2 cm wide) running from top to bottom in the middle of the mount, will it be damaged? i would hate to have intermittent internet connection and its also a pain to get someone to reroute the cable.

thanks for sharing.

hi did you manage to solve the issue? I am facing the same headache as you now

i am using a stand right now as i am still trying to play with it to figure out what other devices/cables i need to connect to the back of the tv.

i will likely proceed with the standard wall mount and mount the bracket to the left of the PVC pipe and shift my sofa accordingly to the centre of the TV

[Recommendation?] Wall mount that is ...

My mother ended up buying a 42" LG LED TV from NTUC

The wall mount they gave (free) is a low-profile one that is not adjustable in any way.

Not doing anything about it, but it got me thinking about a wall mount for my own place when they finish building it.

Are there any wall mounts that are both height and angle (up/down) adjustable? I don't need it to be able to swivel to portrait though.

Also, I'm assuming that most places giving out free wall mounts will give a basic non-adjustable one by default. Do any of them offer upgrade (maybe requiring a top-up of cash) to the adjustable-type mounts?

how's the default bracket provided by LG (47"TV) ?

got easy access to side HDMI inputs ?

else, is it worth the $100 upgrade to the arm bracket ...
which i think is the swivel type bcos i was told can pull outwards also as well as tilt ?

what brand is it LG giving ?

lastly, is there a goodwill warranty period for labor against tv or wall mount dropping due to workmanship (and not user carelessness or ill treatment) ?

TIA

 

[vivalarave]

no such thing as goodwill.
unless you sign contract - nobody can held accountable.

SIC ...

LG TV buyers

their bracket mounting is outsourced to a single local company
they have 2 kinds of brackets

one's the flat type, which i was told is abt 3"spacing between wall and back of TV
the other one is tilt cum pull-out (not sure if swivel, prolly not) ...
this one must top up $100 !

so if you buy LG TV ... std is the flat one
but you can request the seller to instruct the delivery cum installer of the bracket to bring the +$100 one along for you to decide which one suits you better

should you decide on the upgrade, just pay the diff to the installer ...

that's all the info i have for now
my TV is only due on Mon, installer on Tues

the installing firm contact is :

I did that last time. But becos the concrete is very hard, u might need a higher powered drill, a good drill bit and some patience to drill through

Check with your contractor, there are certain rules on how deep you can go.

Hi all! Am a noob at this.
Was wondering if I buy a 40" or 46" TV now (with free-wall mounting services), if I am able to upgrade my tv size to say 55" in future, am I able to reuse the existing wall-mount in the same locations used for the 40" or 46" TV?
Am concerned, cos am thinking of getting them to drill into my feature wall directly. But if next time need to remove and redrill for another tv, scared the feature wall cannot take the weight, if there are already holes drilled into feature wall.

Can any bros here advise? Thanks thanks!

OMG, totally same concern as me. Anyone can advise?

As long as is not a pillar sure can.

Can take the weight lah. Unless u go to super big.

Feature wall usually the issue is if the design had a recess to fit the TV then the bigger TV cannot go in.

 

[PlainBlackTee]

As long as is not a pillar sure can.

but those bolded lines in HDB floorplan are pillar right?

 

[Bieffe]

not necessary could be over head beams.even pillars cannot be the whole wall.
Bold means u cannot knock down that wall.

As long as the vesa mounting is the same - 400 x 400 etc

yes u can but need a hammer drill & your body strength to do the job~

 

[mark lim]

With a rotary hammer drill there is no need to use your body. Just hold it there and the drill's impacts will do the job.

 

[recnamor]

Is it possible to use Samsung slim wall mount (WMN2000B) on LG TV (42LM6690)? Anyone tried it before?

Fitting wise no problem since both are based on standard vesa 400x400, but it is the strength that worries me slightly. It is because the 'hanging frame display' type, its stress load seems totally different from usual wall mount, I just afraid that LG TV are not built against that.

 

[eyz]

hi, is there any adjustable wall mount for tv size like 60 inch?
