Bracket is called the wall fastening intended for installation of household appliances. The bracket is used most often as the supporting device for Microwave ovens, LCD TVs (LCD), plasma panels and so on. Not to be mistaken when choosing TV mount, remember several simple rules.
Instruction
1. At first decide on functions which the bracket has to carry out. The fixed fastenings are least functional – bracket it will be simple to hold the TV in close proximity to wall. Inclined brackets allow to regulate TV inclination up/down. If to you it is necessary not only to incline the TV, but also to turn it, think over purchase of inclined swinging bracket. Mobile fastenings differ in the greatest functionality – such designs are supplied with the hinged consoles allowing to incline, turn, rotate TV and also to move it to wall and from wall.
2. Then define the VESA standard of your TV. On rear side of the body of any flat TV there are 4 screw ports. It is necessary to measure distance between the centers of these openings across and verticals. Proceeding from these values, choose bracket with the landing openings which are at the same distances from each other.
3. Pay attention to maximum load. It is specified in parameters of bracket and has to exceed the weight of your TV.
4. Make sure that the design of the chosen bracket will not close access to important connectors on the TV back panel. Also choose bracket thickness, considering what connectors are connected from TV rear side. So, for example, the antenna connector demands the minimum thickness of bracket of 2-3 cm.
5. Do not forget when choosing bracket about its color registration and exterior. White, silvery brackets are perfectly combined with light TVs, respectively, black and dark gray – with black.
6. Practically of any bracket producers specify the recommended diagonal for TV in the description and technical characteristics. These data are not so important when choosing bracket. They have only advisory nature. However other above-mentioned characteristics need to be considered. In most cases it is also necessary to consider dimensions of bracket and the TV – the assembly plate of bracket because of the TV should not be visible.
