My husband mounted our 60" over the fireplace. He bought this gadget from the Home Depot to locate the beams.. no additional or special screws were needed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.not difficult at all.. do need to drill holes on brick wall - just use the bolts come with the rocketfish mount. the TV looks great on fireplace wall. but you may put a little bit effort when you plug in cables into the TV, especially you have big palms.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you have a face that varies in its reveal I would use some long length "red head" brand concrete anchors. They are a expansion anchor vs. a screw. You can use the same diameter anchor, but you may have to play around with a couple of different lengths to even the bar out. Also, it wouldnt be a bad idea to pack out the areas that have more slack/depth to them. It will give them bolts more to tighten against. Hope you project goes well!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi, you will need a professional installer. The wall will need to be shimmed to present a flat surface for the mounting bracket. Is there sufficient room for a ceiling mount? It might be easier and less expensive.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I did not find it difficult. I have a chase framed out by regular studs, not a masonry fireplace. The studs were not centered (I have pictures from before the drywall was installed) but the bracket allows for this with the slots. Rocketfish also includes a cardboard template you can put up to figure out where the mount will go. A simple stud finder, ratchet set, and drill for pre-drilling will be all you need to install this mount.
