    Hello

    I currently have a Panasonic 40" LCD that I want to buy a wall bracket for and also wish to buy a 55-60"new TV and also get a bracket for that.

    I also want to pay someone to wall mount both TVs. Am based in Dublin:

    - do you sell wall brackets for this size TV and are they universal fitting?
    - do you ship to Dublin if I bought TV and two brackets?
    - do you fit wall brackets or if not do you have any recommendations for Dublin?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Theboinkmaster.

    Thank you very much for your post.

    I would have no problems quoting for and supply the TV and brackets but may not be able to have them installed for you as we are based in Belfast.
    (I will check on this - Where abouts in Dublin are you based?)

    Lets start with the bracket for the 40" Panasonic.

    To mount it flat you can use the Sanus VML5 priced at £49.95
    http://www.richersounds.ie/p-200142-vml5.aspx

    For a full motion bracket there would be the Sanus VMF322 priced at £119.00
    http://www.richersounds.ie/p-200622-vmf322-b1.aspx


    For the 55-60" TV.
    You could look at the excellent Samsung 55KS7000 priced at £999.00 with £6.99 shipping (Includes on free 6 year guarantee).
    http://www.richersounds.ie/p-201977-ue55ks7000.aspx

    Panasonic off the TX55DX600 - £649.00 with £6.99 shipping (Includes on free 6 year guarantee).
    https://www.richersoun...1922-tx55dx600b.aspx

    LG have the 55UH770 coming in at £799 with £6.99 shipping (Includes on free 6 year guarantee).
    http://www.richersound...201928-55uh770v.aspx

    Panasonic also have the 50DX750 priced at £879.00 with £6.99 shipping (Includes on free 6 year guarantee).
    http://www.richersound...iera-tx50dx750b.aspx

    Sony 55XD7005 priced at £779.00 with £6.99 shipping and includes our 6 year guarantee.
    http://www.richersound...avia-kd55xd7005.aspx

    Or Sony also offer up the 55XD8599 at the same price of £999.00 with £6.99 shipping (Includes on free 6 year guarantee).
    http://www.richersound...avia-kd55xd8599.aspx


    Brackets to fit a 552 would be the Sanus VLL5 priced at £59.95 - Flat mount.
    http://www.richersounds.ie/p-12678-vll5.aspx

    For full motion the Sanus VLF311 coming in at £149.95
    http://www.richersounds.ie/p-200138-vlf311.aspx

    Let me know if any of the above catch your eye.

    Any questions please let me know.

    Hi

    Thanks a million for prompt response, just some questions:

    - I'm based in Terenure in Dublin, can you look into fitting for me?
    - Need both brackets to swivel sideways maybe up to 45 degrees - how much distance is the Sanus VMF322 from the wall once fully extended? Only one pic online are there others to show it in action or how neat it folds back?
    - Sanus VLF311 - as above how much does that extend out from the wall?
    - the 2 brackets per above seem quite expensive are these a premium brand or just what market rate is for average bracket to do that size of TV?

    I will research the TVs you suggested and check my measurements thank you.

    Thanks a mil

    Also I checked Sanus website is the Sanus VLF311 discontinued, any other alternatives?

    Thanks Theboinkmaster.

    I will check on fitting for you.

    Both of the Full motion brackets will swivel to the side. The 311 which we have plenty of stock of here at Richersounds can swivel up to 30 degress left or right and sits 25.8cm at full stretch.

    The VMF322 will come out 56cm from the wall, Swivel on the 322 is 90 degrees.

    We really only stock the Sanus range of brackets as we know they are tried and tested and very good built brackets. Cheaper alternatives are available else where but as to their sturdiness I could not comment.

    We will also not mount brackets that have not been purchased from ourselves.
    We could maybe also work a deal on the final pricing of the brackets once a TV has been selected. 

    I hope this is of help.

    No problem Theboinkmaster.

    Any update on the fitting?

    Hey Theboinkmaster.

    Apologies for the delay.

    We would be able to do the install for you. Although we are fully booked for the next 2 weeks.
    We can only install if both the TV and bracket are purchased from ourselves. If the Full motion bracket is used then it must be a brick wall for mounting. (Due to weight of both products).

    Are the power sockets etc located close to the mounting location?
    How many sources are connected to the television?

    Would it also be possible to take a photo of the area in which the TV will be going and email to myself at Kenny@richersounds.ie

    Sorry for all the questions, it just to try and get an idea of the job at hand.
    Coat of the install will depend on the length of time required to complete.

    I hope this is of help.

    Any further questions please let me know.

    Hi thanks for your quick response - I've hit a snag. The wall is the dividing wall between our house and the next (semi detached) and was built in 2015.

    I'd assumed it was brick but when I checked it's actually plasterboard - may be bricks a few inches behind it but not sure.

    So that means I cannot wall mount the TV. The problem is the 55" TVs are so wide but so are the stands and seem to be made to view the TV straight on and not be able to swivel the TV.

    Do you have any alternatives? So I can buy the bigger TV but swivel left and right - something like this:

    Hi Theboinkmaster,

    Sorry for the delay getting back to you. We can provide something similar. The Sanus VTVS1 is a tabletop stand with swivel at £69.95 compatible for TVs up to 60":

    http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv-stands/sanus/vtvs1-b2/sanu-vtvs1-b2

    Let me know what you think.

    Many thanks
