Full-Motion TV Mounts in Westminster
TV Mounting Mark Westminster covers full-motion TV mounts in Westminster homes, where one screen has to face a sofa, a kitchen counter or a bed, and a swing arm anchored across two studs lets it turn and extend without pulling on the wall.

Who needs an arm
A fixed mount is simpler. An arm earns its place in a few situations.
- Open plans: the screen faces a sofa and a kitchen counter.
- Corners: the TV swings out from a corner into the room.
- Bedrooms: it pulls out to face the bed and folds away.
- Offices: one set serves a desk and a seat.
What the numbers show
- Wall plate The plate is the arm's only anchor and sits across studs.
- Extended arm The arm swings the screen into the room and folds flat when not needed.
- Door clearance The swing is checked so the screen never meets a door, a cabinet or a person walking by.
- The seat The screen turns toward the seat it has to serve.
How far the arm reaches
An arm moves the weight away from the wall, and the farther it reaches, the harder it pulls on the bolts. A short arm on a plate that spans two studs holds a mid-size screen; a long one needs a heavier mount and stronger anchoring. Doors, cabinets and a person walking by are checked against the swing before the plate goes on.
What the numbers show
- Plate over two studs The plate spans two studs with a bolt at each, so the pull of the arm goes into wood.
- Pivot pin Each joint turns on a pin; the elbow lets the arm fold and extend.
- Tilt head The head holds the TV and tips it up or down once the arm is in place.
- Reach The distance from the wall to the back of the TV sets how hard the arm pulls on the bolts.
- Folded position Folded, the TV sits close to the wall like a fixed mount.
- Swivel The arm swings the screen sideways toward the seat it has to face.
Anchoring the arm
Studs are the only place a full-motion plate belongs. Where two studs do not line up with the planned spot, a backer board across several studs gives the plate somewhere solid, and the screen stays where it is wanted.
Cords that move with the arm
The cords need slack and a loop that does not bind when the arm folds. Cable ties with a little play and a raceway on the wall below the arm keep the run neat without limiting the swing.
Full-Motion TV Mounts — common questions
How much more is a full-motion mount?
The estimator adds $28–$48 to the base price for the arm, and a supplied mount adds $38–$120 more.
Can an arm hold a large TV?
Yes, within its rating, but the larger and heavier the screen, the more the plate and the studs matter. The rating should be at least 1.5 times the weight.
