The epitome of LCD brackets is undoubtedly the cantilever wall mount. Installing a cantilever mount gives your LCD the full range of movement; that is, tilting it in a vertical axis, swiveling it from left to right and even the ‘turn and tilt’ mechanism.
The type of cantilever bracket best suited for your TV depends on a number of factors; the type of wall, how heavy or large your LCD TV is and, of course, your own personal taste and interest.
In this short write up I will be looking at the type of LCD wall bracket which uses two arms. These cantilever arms enable you to move an LCD away from the wall, when the arms are completely extended. When the arms are contracted they move the LCD close to the wall.
LCD TV wall brackets are manufactured in such a way that they fit the smallest and also the largest TV sizes. With LCDs the difference between the smallest and largest screen TV is 15 inches. Large screen LCDs come in a range of 45 inches to a mammoth 65 inches. A 65 inch LCD will require a very large cantilever bracket; weighing about 15kg and being able to hold a TV weighing 100kg (which does not exist, but that is the threshold).
Large cantilever brackets will not be able to contract to a completely flat position, so make sure that you perform thorough research before making your purchase.
