Question

How high should it be mounted?

Community Answer

Mount it as high as you want, but make sure the cords can reach the TV and that it's at least three inches from the ceiling.

Question

How can get a mounted TV down?

Community Answer

A mount is typically a frame hooked to the studs in the wall and it has a ledge with a lip. The piece connected to the television slips over the lip and rests on the ledge. All you need to do is lift the television and it will come free of the mount. If it is hung high, be sure to stand on something very sturdy and have someone holding onto you.

Question

How do I access the outlet behind a wall mounted tv?

Community Answer

You would need to move or adjust the wall mount to reach it, otherwise take the entire TV off of the wall mount.
