How do you put the safety bolt in after you have put the tv on the wall? There is little space to do so..

Tilt it to 15 degrees have a little more room on the top, then do your best to screw with a long, skinny screw driver

Yes, very easy, providing you do not have anything else obstructing the vertical bars. If you put a box for power and/or TV connections behind the TV, just be mindful of where that is. My TV mounts were about 16" apart. Since My centerline was exactly between 2 studs and the recessed box was mounted on the inside of one of those studs, I had little room to move left or right. If I had to move right, the vertical bar would have covered my recessed box for power/cables. I got lucky and barely needed to move.

From the wall to the back of the TV is closer to 3-3 1/2 inches. Then you would have the thickness of the TV to add to that. Hope this helps. Like the other responder said, it's heavy-duty and locked great.

this tv mount is very long and where i wanted my tv on the wall was just off of a stud. So i put the tv mount on the stud but lengthend the wall mount so the tv is exactly where i wanted and no one was the wiser

As you can see from the picture, the bracket is composed of 3 pieces, one bracket attaches horizontally to the wall and is 26" wide. The other two brackets are separate brackets, approximately 20" long, that attach vertically to the back of the tv with two bolts. There are multiple holes in the vertical brackets, so they can attach to bolt holes in the back of the tv that could be spaced at different lengths apart. The 20" length between your bolts on the back of the tv should fit on the wall bracket which is 26". As long as the vertical brackets will fit on your tv, the mount should work. On our tv, the bolts are 12" apart on the vertical bracket. As you can see from the picture, the bracket is composed of 3 pieces, one bracket attaches horizontally to the wall and is 26" wide.

It screws into the wooden opening where the smaller TV once was.In my case I replaced a 32 in. Tv that fit into the entertainment center,I bolted this stand into the wooden opening where that 32 in. TV once was enabling me to put a 50 in. plasma in front of the opening and keep the entertainment center.

What about using velcroe. On the back of TV and on outside of where TV rest on the wood. That's what I plan to do.

I have it in drywall with a 42in tv. better to find a stud for at least one of the screws. But if you can't, I've switched these type of anchors http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/100391938?langId=-1&storeId;=10051&catalogId;=10053&N;=5yc1vZ1xhv&R;=100391938.

before hanging it I removed the base of TV secured given plate thru spacers to the back of my Emerson slightly tide up two tilt bolts, secured lower bolts that protect hanger from sliding of the hooks and the mid section of TV comes up 3" & bottom part really close to wall.

I would recommend getting a set of the folding metal wall anchors they sell at lowes or home Depot I got a wall mount for a larger tv and used them because I couldn't hit a stud on 1 side. The anchors iam referring to fold in until it gets behind the drywall then they spring out allowing you to really tighten down on the mount.

If you are saying that the TV is on the wall, inside the bed, and you want to push the TV and mount against the wall when you are closing the bed up and will it stay collapsed?, then yes. Just remember the mount sticks out a minimum of 5" away from the wall without any tilt, then add the thickness of your screen then you would be able to figure if you have enough room. If you are talking about the mount being on the outside of the bed, like it would be under the bed when you pull it down, then NO, it would not stay collapsed. You could make a way to cover it or strap it so it would not open but it will not lock to the wall. Hope this helped! :) By the way, I LOVE this wall mount!

If the back of the mount is loosened a little bit, you can move the TV around but I would tighten the bolts back up after you found a good spot.

if you notice in the picture on the top horizontal bar end bracket there is a hole. there is a tool that comes with the mount that fits this hole and rotates the bar ( the bar has a flat side to allow it to fit into the opening on the bracket that attaches to the TV) you insert the tool rotate the bar to lock the mount to the bracket and rotate the bar in the opposite direction to allow you to remove the TV from the mount. you can also slide the mount on the brackets that are anchored to the wall studs left or right to get the TV aligned properly.

You can either slide it off the end of the mount or pull the tabs at the bottom of the two vertical brackets that attach the TV to the wall mount. Once pulled you will be able to lift the TV and remove it from the wall mount.

First mount the rectangular bracket to the wall. Then you put the vertical brackets on the back of your TV. Then hook the brackets that are attached to the TV onto the rectangular bracket and tighten it down with the screw that's at the bottom of the vertical brackets and on the sides of them and your finished. P. S. Be sure to put the screws in studs when mounting the rectangular bracket. And use the washers as well. They give you several different sizes and kinds so you can choose which one is best for what you need. Same for the washers. Use the level to assure it is straight before putting a bunch of holes in your wall. It will really come in handy. I hope I have helped you out. I helped my husband put ours up and together it was pretty easy. Melissa Cox

You can do that but it wil be more forward from the wall. Since I used mine on a smaller TV in the bedroom I found the studs to be farther apart then what the support holes on the bracket allowed. I placed two 1"x2" wood studs across longer than TV bracket. I secured them to the studs and was able to move the bracket more to the left or right. Support for weight was still there since the wood was secured to the studs. You can't really see the wood since its 1" and the TV covers it. Hope this helps

If you are mounting to dry wall you can put two bolts into the lone stud. One in the upper slot/hole and one in the lower slot/hole located in the slot/hole next to the middle slot/hole. In the end slot/hole fartherest from the stud I would use 3/16" toggle bolts. You might not want to exceed a 32" LCD or a 40" LED screen size.
