Technology has surpassed our imagination. Smart TVs dial us into a world of entertainment with a press of a button. You can now play video games, listen to music, watch movies and surf the Internet on your television. But there is another way in which we are using technology for our convenience – by making devices adjustable to our unique body types. Our work desks, monitors, keyboards, mice, and laptops can be raised up and down or extended and retracted as we choose.

This flexibility now extends to our TVs, which not only have become bigger and lighter over the years but can now be mounted on walls, poles, ceilings, and also adjusted, tilted and panned for convenient viewing angles. With appropriate mounts, TVs can also be vertically adjusted or lifted up and down. This flexibility is especially handy while playing video games or digital activity games.

Wall mounts for TVs come in a variety of choices, depending on TV size and weight as well as functional features that you want from the TV after mounting it – for example – whether you want the TV to rotate from side-to-side, tilt up and down or extend horizontally.  Before deciding on a mount, make sure to look at the bolting pattern on the back of your TV (from the manual) and then choose a mount that is compatible. Otherwise you risk hurting the wall and/or the TV.

ErgoDirect carries a few different TV mount options, including those below.

1) Full-Motion/ Articulating/ Swivel Mounts – These mounts typically contain a bracket that attaches to the wall on one side and an arm on the other side. This arm then connects to the bracket that attaches to the TV. The arm provides flexibility of movement to the display. These mounts work especially well for corner installations or for large rooms with multiple viewing areas of pain-free and comfortable viewing angles are necessary.

The Ergotron Interactive Arm mounts TVs 30-60″ in screen size that weigh between 35-70 lbs. By extending 28″ from the wall, retracting to 6.5″ when not in use, and adjustments of 20″ vertical and 20.75″ side-to-side, this wall mounting TV arm accommodates all your needs.

 

For small, flat screen TVs in hospital rooms or modest bars, Chief Small Swing Arm Mount is an option. This mount has a weight capacity of 40 lbs. and has a 16-inch extension that allows the wall mount to move around with ease and position the screen depending on where the viewer is located. This mount is adaptable with the Chief Display Security kit to ensure your TV is tamper proof.

 

2) Fixed Wall Mounts – If you do not want any articulation on your TV, these are the mounts for you. They do not tilt, swivel or move but the TV remains close to the wall, seamlessly enhancing the look of your family room or saving space in a conference room. 

For TV screen sizes  37-63” that weigh up to 200 lbs, Chief LSAU Fusion Video Wall Mount is an interesting choice. With less than 2” depth from the wall, this product offers an ultra low profile mounting solution, letting your TV merge seamlessly into the landscape of your room.

 

3) Tilting Wall Mounts – Wall Mounts that can tilt TVs forward or backward are appropriate for most situations. This option hides cables better compared to fixed wall mounts. This mount is an ideal choice if you want the TV above eye level. Its 15-20 degrees of tilt ensure glare-free viewing. The Ergotron TM Tilting Wall Mount, XL hoists TVs on the wall that weigh up to 175 lbs and are between 42-65″ in screen size.

           

There are many choices when it comes to TV Wall Mount Arms, whether it is for your business or your home entertainment system.
