A:AnswerYou pull down on the cords, tilt the bottom off your tv forward so it is away from the wall bracket and lift. If your tv is heavy I would recommend 2 people just because it can be a little hectic to try and pull cords, tilt, lift, etc.
A:AnswerIt will work for a Samsung TV up to 70", but it's a solid mount, meaning you can't turn or rotate the TV once it's mounted. I had a generic TV that was 42" and it worked for that, and once I upgraded to a 65" 4K UHD I had no worries about the TV other than lighting in my basement reflecting off the screen.
A:AnswerThe wall mount should work fine, but you should take the screws to your local hardware store to see if they would be suitable for metal studs. I would guess they are not, and they can sell you the correct ones for cheap.
A:AnswerIt should work, the vertical railings are not too wide to block any ports on the back of the TV. Also the Horizontal railings are not too long, the horizontal railings are about 27 inches long and the vertical ones are about 17 inches long. hope this helps
A:AnswerYes, just make sure that is where you want it and make sure the brick doesn't get too hot for tv. If so, use concrete anchors for the grout or brink to hang. Certain anchors hold more weight. I hope this helped.

A:AnswerI had the wall setup so the cable feeds, internet feeds, and AC power come in behind the set. All cables dress neatly behind the set without being seen.
A:AnswerBest solution is to buy an inset receptacle box - one that is cut into the wall - or replace the plug on the TV A/C cord with one of the new right-angle flat plugs (or the entire cord for one using such a plug). Hanging the TV 2.5 inches from the wall would not work, unless you use one of the movable, scissors-type mounts or add spacer strips very securely mounted to the wall studs and correspondingly longer lag bolts.
