Roku tv wall mount 55

When shopping for a TV wall mount you will need to first decide what type of mount to purchase and then select one that matches the VESA mount specifications of your television.

After selecting the style of the mount verify the mount supports the VESA pattern of your TV.  A VESA hole pattern is measured in both horizontal and vertical distance between the mounting holes.  A VESA of 200mm  x 200mm  means your mounting screw holes are 200mm apart.  Check the chart at the end of this document for your VESA TV pattern.  

Next confirm that you are using the correct screws to mount your TV. Using screws of the incorrect length can damage your TV, which is not covered under your manufacturers warranty.  Typically mounting kits provide screws and some provide spacers.  Follow the mounting kits instructions but confirm you are using screws of the appropriate length.    Refer to the chart at the end of this document for your correct mounting screw size.  

Also confirm that your TV weight does not exceed the maximum weight rating of mount.  Refer to the chart at the end of this document for the hanging weight of your TV.

After you have verified the VESA pattern, screw length, and weight requirements of your TV follow the mount manufacturer's instructions for mounting your TV.  It is recommended that you take a photo of your serial number tag on the back of your TV prior to mounting.  This will allow you to pull up your TV serial number should you require warranty service in the future.

Different Styles of Wall Mounts

Fixed mounts are the simplest mounts, providing the least amount of options.   With a fixed mount the TV will sit close to the wall and not allow movement or tilt. 

Tilt mounts sit a few inches from the wall, allowing the TV to tilt up and down at an angle.

Tilt and swivel or Full motion mounts allow the TV not only to tilt up and down but also angle left and right.   These sort of mounts typically extend the TV a few to several inches from the wall.

Everyone wants their TV mounted. It’s part of our ancestry. If you go look in prehistoric caves, the paintings by the cavemen are up on the wall, not on a stand in the corner!

Every TCL TV mounts on the wall. But before you get started, there are a few things you should know.

First, if you’re unsure or uncomfortable about mounting a TV yourself, be sure to hire a professional. There’s nothing worse than watching a TV that has the left side 1-inch lower than the right, or worse, a broken TV because it wasn’t mounted properly.

How to Choose a TV Mount

One of the questions I hear most is: “What mount should I get?” Since there are literally thousands of mounts from which to choose, I’ll only offer some general tips. There are basically 3-types of mounts; fixed, tilt and articulating. Respectively, they’ll place your TV flat against the wall, tilted down, or on an arm allowing it to swivel and pivot so that the TV can be viewed from different areas in the room. Each has their pros and cons:

• Fixed mounts are generally going to be the most low-profile, often putting the TV nearly flush against the wall. This lends that “art hung on the wall” look.
  
  
• Tilt mounts are ideal for when your TV might be a little higher up, when angling it downward will give you better picture performance. This position, however, may come at a cost of not being quite as flush against the wall.
  
  
• Full-motion mounts give you the ability to swing the TV around to the optimal viewing position. These mounts also allow for better power and data management since the back of the TV is easily accessible.

Find the Right Mount for Your TV

The other general factor to consider is making sure the mount will attach to the TV properly. TV and mount manufacturers have established what is called VESA (Video Electronics Standard Corporation) patterns used by TV and mount manufacturers to ensure compatibility.

While choosing a mount by size (i.e. a mount labeled “for 32”- 50” TVs, for a 49” TV, etc.) will work, you’ll always want to double check. On all TCL TVs, looking at the specs will show you the correct VESA pattern, represented in millimeters for width and height.

For example, our 50S535 has a 200mm x 200mm VESA pattern. If you want to avoid looking it up, just grab a tape measure, and measure the four "square" (or occasionally rectangular) mounting holes centered horizontally on the back of your TV.
