What is a tilt TV wall mount?

 

If you’re looking to grab yourself the latest LED flat screen or curved OLED TV, then you’ll need to consider how it’ll work in your living space and what TV mount options are available to you.

If you have a bright living space, a Tilt motion TV wall mount might be the best solution for you. Most Tilt motion TV wall mounts feature a wall bracket and two adjustable TV mounting arms. They are a simple design for a sleek low profile look that provides a robust mounting base and is the most basic method for hanging your HDTV on the wall.

 

A Tilt motion mount offers a tilt movement for the TV, tilting down and up to reduce glare from sunlight. This can optimise the viewing angle for the TV and give a better experience. Some Tilt TV mounts might be able to move the TV laterally left to right as well. Tilt TV brackets do not provide the option of swivel or pan movement and cannot be mounted into a corner.

As the Tilt mount type is a low profile design, you will need to do all your wiring before hanging your TV as it’s usually flat against the wall. Consider the space behind the TV to the wall. Your TV may have cable or power connections that stick into the wall or to the side, and you may need to purchase alternative cables to suit your new mount.

Power leads, HDMI and coaxial cables are available with a right angle connection. Alternatively, you could use a right angle adaptor for the cables. Just make sure that the adaptor and cable are suitable for the bandwidth required.

Ensure you also check the wall type you have before putting holes in your wall. Timber frame and masonry are your most common, and our TV mounts provide screws and plugs to suit these. However, you will need to discuss the best mounting solution with your local hardware store if you have a steel frame home.
