Wall bracket to flush mount 55" Samsung LED in tight space

[DanCup]

Hi,

Currently building a fireplace and flush mounting a 55" Samsung LED into it. The TV will be in a recess but I want the screen completely flush to the wall with only a small gap all the way around it.

Going back a few years (and they may have changed now) wall mounts required you to angle a tv onto the mount, is this still the case? I know this may prove problematic if the recess for the tv doesn't have much space to move.

I've seen low rise cantilever mounts that seem like a sensible option so you can extend the arm out past the recess, mount the tv, then push the cantilever back into the recess. Anyone had any experience with these or have other options?

Cheers in advance,
Dan

The wall mount I have doesn't require any angling. It's a ridged bar that mounts securely to the wall, and another bar mounts to the telly and that simply clips onto the wall bar by lifting it into place.

You can't move the TV, it's just secured flat to the wall.

Thanks for the response - any ideas on make/model?

Thanks for all the replies, I've actually just picked up a similar one to the Amazon link above, albeit slightly more expensive but 250+ excellent reviews.

We see how it works out!
