As the technology in the TV industry has grown, so has your entertainment center options. We’ve gone from big bulky TV’s that sat right on the floor to TV wall mounting! Wall mounting your TV can have a number of benefits, starting off with saving space in your room. A great example of space saving is if you have a fireplace, you can wall mount the TV above the fireplace giving you a little more wall space. I’ve also hear the TV wall mounting can keep your TV safer. I’m sure we’ve all seen some video on the internet of an animal jumping and knocking over the TV, or perhaps you’re trying to get behind the entertainment center and accidentally rock it and knock over the TV.

One of the coolest features of having TV wall mounting is the dynamic mounting offers extreme flexibility. Having dynamic mounting allows you to swivel and move the TV, either to remove glare or watch it from a different part of the house. TV wall mounting has a lot of benefits, but you have to know what you’re doing when you install it. I know that installing my own TV wall mounting would make me nervous. Lucky for me there’s a company that will come and do it for me! This is one of the projects that I am happy to leave to the professionals at Downeast Audio Video.
