solution you ask? Why a Wall mount of course!
Appearance
Wall Mount Brackets take TV's where they've never been before. Space
efficiency with a TV has always been ignored, but mounting your TV on
the wall can quickly give back close on 4 square feet of floor space.
Using a Wallmount you can pick the perfect viewing height, without
needing a large base. If hung high on the wallit can look like a piece
of wall art. This gives a good amount of space below ensuring the
dresser can stay put. Of course a little bit of pre-thought will need
to go into this picture perfect design for cables and electrical
outlets. If you are designing a new room, take the timeduring framing
to decide upon the electrical and cable outlets required, and the
spacing of studs.
Hanging the TV at picture frame height
isn't a requirement and a TV at couch level height is also a good
choice.If this is the case I find good rule of thumb is to install the
wall mount at the same height as the back of your couch. Another
benefit to installing the TV lower is that wall plugs and cable outlets
are often pre-installed at that level above the floor. Generally I use
the following guideline:bedroom's require the TV to be up higher for
easier viewing, because the height of most beds are higher. When
installing in a theater room, the TV can be lower down and is actually
more comfortable at the lower viewing height.
Safety
These new TV's might not look heavy, but if flipped over they are big
enough to hurt a small child. A wall mount bracket properly installed
to the studs in the wall, will secure the TV. Wallmounts also make a
flat screen much harder to steal, if in the small chance your house is
robbed. Installing the TV higher up also protects it against flying Wii
remotes, grubby fingerprints, and against mistaken identity as a
fire-hydrant by your Jack Russell Terrorizer.
Design Options
There are a few different wall mount designs. Fixed wall mount
brackets are usually the cheapest and most simple type of Wallmount.
However fixing the TV in place makes it much more difficult to access
the plugs and there is little room for error in placement. Tilting wall
mount brackets are a good in-between solution, they allow for some
movement to get a better viewing angle and access to the connectors.
Full motion (tilt and swivel) wall mounts as the name implies give a
complete range of motion. These wall mounts allow for vast adjustments
after install and can also allow the TV to be tucked away when not in
use. More recently slim wall mount brackets were introduced to
complement the thin design of LED televisions. New LED televisions
weigh less than "traditional" flat screens and therefore the wall mount
doesn't need to be as big and robust.
While buying the TV can
be done at a big box store, cheaper prices for Wallmounts can often be
found at online retailers such as bestpricecables.com.They have a pretty
good selection of Wallmounts and include free shipping on purchases
over seventy-five dollars.
So to sum it all up: Wall mounts
can save you money, when compared to the cost of the furniture to sit a
new TV on. Wall mounts are great space savers giving back precious
space in the bedroom and small living rooms. Wall mounts give a degree
of safety for kids and can remove the TV out of the way from potential
damage. Wall mounts come in a few different styles and price points to
meet a wide range of buyers.
