Once you've decided to mount your television you should consider a few factors that are important to every TV mounting. These factors are:
TV LocationWith the right equipment and expertise a TV can be mounted over the fireplace, on a wall, indoors, or outdoors but each of these locations come with conditions to consider. In most cases viewers prefer to view TV installed at eye level. A few measurements can make the final decision easy.
While choosing a location, it's also important to think about where power will be connected and proximity to attached devices. Concealing wires can be a lot harder when devices are spread across a room but a Smart TV can simplify connectivity needs. |

Mounting Brackets

Choosing the right TV bracket is an important step in the mounting process. Generally speaking, there are three main types of wall mounts in the market, and here are brief descriptions of each.
Low Profile Bracket
Also commonly called still or fixed bracket, the low profile bracket is cheap, secure and offers the closest contact to the wall. If you want your TV to look like a picture frame then this is the mount for you.
Tilt Bracket
Tilting TV brackets are unique because they allow an adjustment angle of between 5 and 15 degrees. They are adjustable vertically, and this gives viewers at lower eye levels (like kids) a better view compared to still brackets. Tilt brackets can also help reduce glare and give owners more options to install the TV in higher locations.
Swing Bracket
This type of wall brackets is also commonly known as full-motion, as it allows a higher level of adjust-ability compared to the rest. Viewers can adjust the TV either vertically or horizontally until they find a perfect viewing angle. It offers the widest viewing angles of all the TV brackets.
Each bracket also comes with size limits so the size of the TV becomes a factor in choosing the right bracket. VESA (The Video Electronic Stands Association) has developed a standard that most TV manufactures have adopted. The team at Fort Worth TV Mount & Theater can help pick the right one for your needs.

Cable Concealment
The process of concealing wires has almost become an art form. From blogs to Pinterest, ideas abound to camouflage and trick the naked eye from seeing those black wires running down from your mounted TV. Options include:
- running the cables into the wall as pictured here (completely hiding all evidence of them)
- installing trim with a cavity,
- or using a paint-able concealing strip like these from Amazon.
