Can you please tell me how much (in inches) is the gap between the wall and the back of the TV when mount is fully retracted?

I cannot say and here is why... The circuit breaker box is to the left of where the mount is on the wall. When my house was built, the box was installed in my family room instead of the basement. So, I am nt able to push the tv flush against the wall. Sorry I couldn't help...

I have a panasonic 55" plasma. Mine is a little less than 5" from the wall.

It extends a long ways!! I think between 26" and 29". I have a 60" TV attached in the corner and it extends way away from the wall.

My TV is only a 37" (LG) I did a low profile mount for my TV. Only about 4-5" are free above the slot I used for my screen. I think if you used the highest mounting slot on the bracket you should have at least 5-6" of space, depth wise you would have almost 1" of clearance between the post and the back of the TV. Also after almost 2 years I am still happy with the quality of it, very sturdy, more than I needed for a 37" TV but I am glad I have the stand for when I can upgrade to a larger screen

Amazon keeps sending me the questions on this item.... ;-)This mount leaves a gap of approx 1.5 inch between the desk's rear edge and the immediate wall. The mount pole has its base on top of the desk, not between desk and wall.

Roughly 29". Holes right at the end and evenly spaced. Well designed so you can mount it off-center and slide the tv to center on the wall.

i would also like to know, how high from the base the tv would be with the mount in the top position? i don't want my tv mounted too low.

About 18 inches. The first 4-6 closest to the wall mount is solid, non-flexible. The rest is very flexible but holds the position you put it in very well

It's hard for me to tell now as I have it mounted behind a flat screen TV, but I would say about 2" or so. It worked well for me behind the TV that has a standard wall mount with limited movement. I hope this helps.

The distance from the wall to the front of the TV mount is about 4 inches. Add the thickness of your TV and you have your answer. This unit is quite heavy and is screwed into the wall studs using lag bolts. Have complete faith in it holding the TV. No problems with it so far.

The part that goes against the wall is 18" in length and 8" height ; the part that attach to the TV is 331/2 in length and 8" height; and 2"1/4 gap from wall to TV when mounting panel is fully closed all the way. The TV is extended 20"1/4 from the wall when mounting panel fully is extended. I hope this helps. dashingnite

it's less than a cubic inch. i cannot give exact info, as it's in back of my TV, which is wall mounted. to measure it would be very difficult at this time.

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.

It all depends on how thick your TV is. Mine is 3.75" thick and the base sticks out 5 inches past the front of the TV. In other words, from the attachment rails, the base sticks out 8.75 inches.

If youu fully pull the monitor out, I measure just over 28" from the wall to the back of my monitor. I can send you a pic if you like. Message me at jschauer@yamaha.com. Great mount!

It sticks out about 12-18 inches from the wall depnding ont he wall mount that you use.

The edge of the mount is probably that close to the wall, but the back of the TV probably sits a little further away from the wall, but it still gets you pretty darn close and looks pretty nice. The tilt and motion of the mount is smooth. Best wall mount I have found so far

The wall brackets will slide all the way to either end, with one more in between the two outer wall brackets, but I would say it is not very likely this will work for you. The entire mount is 45 inches outside edge to outside edge. Sliding the two outer brackets all the way to each end and with the mounting holes in the center of each of the wall brackets, you are probably inside 2 1/2 inches or more from each outer edge, which then puts you inside your 40 inch stud to stud span. It does come with masonry mounting hardware, so depending on what the wall is you are trying to mount this to is made of, and the weight of your TV, these may work for you. Hope this is helpful.
