This is an excellent video. I install TVs for living. I have a similar project ahead of me installing a full motion bracket on a similar stone wall. I wanted to gain some insight on installation methods. The use of the plywood and washers was a good solution. I typically use the black spacers that come with the mount for uneven surfaces. They come in many sizes and over time I’ve collected all types. I’ve done it before and it works very well. Each time I’ve done that it was a standard mount that does not move. A big thumbs up with your determination and ingenuity.

I have the same exact face of a fireplace and had no idea how to mount my TV. Thank you for talking through the steps it was very informative. I don’t think the length was an issue because the narration was straight to the point. I would rather watch a longer one that shows all the steps then a brief explanation and no demonstration. Thanks again

Very good! The fact that you didn’t offset the mounting bracket enough to be able to center the tv is a good lesson for everyone attempting to try this. Regardless, it looks great and functions as you needed.

I appreciated the extra time on this video. Having little experience with DIY projects I never considered the addition of board to flatten the surface or the different stacking of the washers to adjust to different depths. Likewise the use of the rubber washer to give a little bit of flex and ensure snugness. Very well done.

Your thought process and description are all fantastic. You have an engineering mind for sure, which it makes it all the more surprising that you didn't A) Check the orientation to center up the TV on the wall (my OCD would have forced me to redo this entirely), and B) Verified the bracket properly attached to your TV beforehand (maybe you did but just didn't mention it). Sorry if these appear nitpicky, because I really did enjoy the explanation and documentation of the process.

Good video for those who are unsure how to hang a television on an uneven surface. Well done, but a word of caution for views who have a working fire and intend doing this. Be very mindful about of the depth being drilled. Particularly here in the UK as you may damage your chimney liner which could result in carbon monoxide leaking into the room.

Hello there. Thanks for the video. But I am curious how you mount the wires. Did you open a hole in the brick wall to pass the wiring?
@LittleHomeProjects
@LittleHomeProjects Жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks for the question. In this installation I did not pass the wires through the brick. I tucked them in snugly between the mantle and the brick so the wires ran horizontally and parallel to the mantle. The TV covers most of the mantle and the rest is just hard to see when they are tucked into the corner crack... it is a great question though. I think it would be quite a challenge to fish the wires through the brick. It might also be a safety concern. The TV can be moved away from the fireplace when we want the fire, but once wires were fished through there could be safety concerns unless you knew exactly where the wires were placed. My thinking would be to remove the gas fireplace and see if there could be a safe way to run it, but that might be an entirely new set of issues and challenges.

Just a quick question, were you originally going to use metal concrete anchors before you discovered the studs? Or was your original intent to drill past the stone into the drywall to use drywall studs? I only ask because I'm concerned if I go past the stone that I'll drill into the actual brick of the fireplace.
@LittleHomeProjects
@LittleHomeProjects 4 жыл бұрын
Hi, my first thought was to drill directly into the stone and use a masonry anchor and bolt, but with the uneven stones i decided that was not going to work. My second solution is a little harder to explain. My stone work backed onto plywood and not drywall. I was planning on using a length of threaded rod and a wall anchor behind the stones and plywood. The anchor I was planning on using is shown in this follow up video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6PZpXhtqcR-q6c You raise a good point though. I don't actually know how much space there would have been behind the plywood and the actual fireplace chimney system. I'm not sure how to check that, sorry, I hope this helps a little.

@izregistered 4 жыл бұрын
@@LittleHomeProjects You could have done the original idea using the masonry anchor/bolt and used washers or spacers to level it up against the wall. I've done a few that way, takes less time and the result is still pretty much the same.

Having so much potential motion for a TV mount above a fireplace strikes me as a really unwise choice of mounts. You can still use that fireplace with proper heatshielding and a static mount.

For some one who install this bracket some place before can't see why the TV never is going to be flash on the center of the fire place is a big no no ! also you need to apply liquid nail on the screws before you secure it , also when is a bracket with only one arm it never going to be on the center of the fire place , you have to install the back plate sideways and not on the center like what you did , if you don't have the TV flash on the wall and on the center of the fire place well it will never going to look good !
