I'm trying to find a mount for a flat TV to mount to a somewhat uneven stone fireplace. Could this potentially work?

I am sorry. I dont really know. I just know how to install in drywall or in a stud.

I was looking at the bracket again this morning and maybe there is a way. There are two brackets that screw to the back of the tv, usually they go vertically, if you attach them horizontally it should work. This approach would work with just about any mounting system since they all seem to work on the same principle. The only thing that changes among them is if the tv is fixed or is allowed to swing or move side to side. If you don't need the tv to move, save yourself some money and just buy a fixed mount. Hope this helps.

My mount was cheap all around. I tried hanging a 70" sharp over fireplace and as soon as I put it on mount, they bent allowing tv to sag. Learned the hard way not to skimp on the mount.

Hi Richard It your mount is 6 ft with a 3' FireStick (9'). You should be OK. I would also go to FireStick support at http://www.firestik.com/. and check with them.

Doubtful, it is made to mount between two parallel walls. I don't think it will mount on a flat wall.

Yes. I first bolted a 3/4"x12"x32" oak board over the sheet rock and into the studs. Then I bolted the tv mount to the oak board. I would say as long as you are bolting it into the studs you are going to be okay. Do not even try to just use sheet rock anchors. Go and buy 3" hex head wood bolts. They are a couple of dollars for a bag of six. You first have to mount a portion of the bracket onto the TV. Then while it is still off the wall figure out where it will sit best.

I also wanted to mount this unit as close to the corner as possible. The swivel arm design allowed me to mount the base to the wall and move the 46" TV to appear as though it was mounted in the corner. Because the base is flat it needs to be mounted to a very solid surface if you want to position the TV close to the corner because that puts all the weight of the TV the maximum distance away from the base and there is a tremendous force placed on the mounting base in that configuration. You may also be limited, as I was, by wall stud locations if you're mounting to a frame wall. I was able to find studs pretty close to where they needed to be but since they weren't in the perfect location, my TV barely covers the visibility of the mounting base - but it does work.

You can be creative and do this by how much of the leg you pull out to adjust the tilt angle. My frame is placed high on the fireplace mantle so I have the frame stand on its own without using the built in leg.

I haven't used this model, but in general the mount are the same, but your tv will hang over each side by 6.5 inches. This may or may not be acceptable to you, but it should work:)

I don't think this is what you want for the flat screen. We mounted it below our flat screen and use it for the audio system and remotes.

I'm not an expert, but I don't think it would work for you. I would look for something that specifically suggests corner mount.

I have this same question - did you end up mounting it to your brick fireplace? how did it go?

That is the TV that I mounted with this! It comes with extra arms that extend on the bracket in case the bolts are placed differently, ( in photo it shows an X shaped bracket. Ours mounted with the existing square plate) but we didn't need them. The most difficult part was figuring out what size bolts to use, as the directions weren't specific. I'm not an expert, but I think this mount should be a good choice for you.

Yes. We have our tv dropping down from a fireplace mantle and what would normally be the bottom of the mantle goes up and down with the TV. Stands to reason the same would be possible upside down from that.

Anything is possible .... but I wouldn't try it myself. It is designed to mount on a wall, which you would have to provide in the opening of your fireplace. There are better options out there, which I have used, that sit inside your opening like gas logs would sit. You just set them in place and plug them in and operate them with a remote. You can even add glass screens in front of them to give a real decorative look.

Aesthetically it would not look good and be over kill. The Sanus VSF415 Premium Series Full-Motion Mount For 13" - 39" for flat-panel TVs might be a better choice.

I think it will fit just fine - might look a little funny though because it would be very low for such a wide screen - but I tend to prefer to have my tv a bit higher than other people - my 46" is on a shelf that is at least 1 foot higher than the fireplace. However, I would worry more about stability in terms of the fireplace moving! Mine moves very smoothly & easily on its casters, so a little jolt may send your tv to the floor!
