It’s common for people to mount their flat screen televisions on the wall for easier viewing, but what do you do if you have limited wall space? Modern architecture can be heavy on windows – a lovely situation if you like lots of natural light. If you need a wall on which to mount your new flat screen television, though, all those windows can put a serious crimp in your choices. In rooms where the wall space is taken up with windows, doorways and other interruptions, corner mounts make the most sense.
Mounting your flat screen television in the corner offers a number of benefits. The most important of these benefits is the ability to view the screen from nearly any position in the room. Corner wall mounts that swivel and move make it even more convenient to have your television mounted in the corner of the room. There are several different styles of monitor mounts that are especially designed for mounting in the corner.
Corner TV Full Motion Mount
Full motion corner LCD TV mounts provide the most flexibility of all types of flat screen mounts. When you mount your TV in the corner with a full motion wall mount, you’ll be able to change the tilt angle up or down and swivel it left and right to the extend allowed by the walls on either side of it. A full motion mount is generally the most expensive option, but the versatility and flexibility often offsets the higher price.
An articulating wall mount is the most popular type of corner TV mount because it offers the best combination of flexibility and affordability. Like a full motion TV mount, you can tilt your television up or down to give you the best viewing angle, as well as swiveling it to the left and the right. The range of motion is more limited than you’d get with a full motion TV mount, but the cost is also considerably less.
Swivel Wall Mounts
A swivel corner mount allows you to turn your flat panel television from left to right, but it doesn’t allow for tilting the television angle up or down for easier viewing. A swivel mount is appropriate if you’ll always be seated at the same height – that is, if you won’t be lying down or sitting on the floor to watch television. Swivel wall mounts are generally mid-range in cost.
Tilting Corner Mounts
Tilting wall mounts allow you to change the vertical angle of the television but not swivel it right or left. A tilting corner mount is most appropriate in a small room.
Generally, you’ll get the most value when you choose a corner mount that provides you the most options for positioning the screen. Consider a corner TV articulating wall mount or a corner TV full motion corner mount for fullest amount of options.
