Hi, does the back plate of this mount opens up like the one in the picture shown? The reason I ask is because the wall that I want to hang this on has an outlet on the same stud and around the same height where the mount should be installed. I'm thinking I may be able to position the mount so that the outlet sits inside the opening of the back plate. Thanks for the reply in advance.

It does, but its circular..and I don't think the opening is bigger than an outlet.

Yes that opening does exist and is large enough to allow acces to a wall outlet

It is open enough to position it right over plate but u might have to tream around the edges to fit other than that its an awesome mount

Hi PETE,yes the backplate does open, actually the smaller open part is the one mounted on the wall.Hopefully this helped your question.HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Yes it is just like the picture with an open area on both sides of the articulating arm.

You have a couple of choices. There is a side mount or you can make a simple hole with a drill (just enough to allow a screw to pass). And that's it! Simple. It works great and it looks good. Had it for 6 months and still love it.

I have the wall mount! Not sure if it that is or isn't but one thing I will tell you is the knob for the turn off / on switch is junk! Ours broke like the first week and had to send off to have repaired and the repaire lasted maybe a week!! Hope that they have changed that!! But a great mirror!!

I have the same wall mount. I have mine set up for two studs, although if necessary there holes in the center if I wanted to set it up for just one stud. I chose the 2 stud option to be safe.

I appreciate your answers. However, I did receive this reply from a Rosewill representative..."Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for contacting Rosewill Support.We apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing with our product.We will gladly assist you with your problem. There is hole spacing on the back to accommodate your 24" wall studs."Should this answer be taken at face value or is the rep just trying to sell merchandise?

Because its such a heavy duty mount your gonna want to hit a stud. easy way to do it is get a magnet and find a nail. I altered the mount a bit and flipped the plates that hold the wall so the hinge is on the outside. then I mounted them butting the corner to hit the corner studs. I have a 42" TV and it will actually clear the hinge and flush out with both walls. Solid mount.

There are 4 brass screw holes on the back of the TV that aligned perfectly with the mount that I purchased at the same time. IF you don't have any brass inserts in the screw holes then I think that you need to contact the seller and let them know. From the answers I see below that was not a problem that any of those that answered your question seemed to have, including myself.

Your outlet should be right next to a wall stud. You could mount this onto the stud and could position it so that it is in front of the outlet. I don't think there is a secure way to mount it over the outlet itself though.

I'm not sure what a pigtail is... if you describe it to me or let me know what I'm looking for, I would be more than happy to check it out tonight when I get home. I had some frustration with the install but I believe that most of that frustration stemmed from my inability to remove the stand screws from my tv, I think that the wall mount itself was pretty easy. Good luck and let me know if you would like me to try to figure out whether or not it has pigtails.

Not sure what you are trying to accomplish but it sounds like you want to use the plate as an adapter to the current wall mount arm that you have. This is a pretty heavy duty plate. And you will probably have to do some modifications to it to attach it to the end of your arm. So... not really sure how that would work with your setup.

I had no idea you were supposed to move the coverplate until I saw these answers! I just plugged it in over the outlets and put the screw aside bc I didn't know what it was for... (heh) It works perfectly fine but I'll fix mine now. Thanks for asking this question & thank you everyone for your answers!

I can't find an y information about the size of the mounting plate....I have a 'skirt' running back a ways from the front edge of the desk, and want to make sure this will fit.Can anyone tell me the mounting plate size and how far back I need to mount it?Thanks!!

There is a lot of leeway in regards to where you want to insert the screws into the studs. I would not have any fear or hesitation. I am very pleased with this wall mount.

Hi I am trying to figure out how this is supposed to be mounted! does anyone have a photo? for the wall

The mount worked per design. It fit better than some of the other mounts I have used in the past. We what to mount to the wall due to the setup.

depends on the dimensions of the outlet. the space on the back plate is only about the size of your hand, so if the outlet is bigger than that I wouldn't risk it, or I'd find another place to mount.
