Last month, me and the guys had to mount four 42" flat panel TV/computer
displays in a couple of large retail stores. Two
at each store with one on a CMU wall and the other on a sheet rock
wall. There is a flat horizontal strip with raised edges mounted
to the wall for the bracket on the back on the TV to hook on to.
The set is secured with two finger latches attached to two long
flat pieces of metal that engage the bottom lip of the metal strip
mounted to the wall. If you look behind the set, you will see a
flat metal finger that moves the flat locking plate when you pull
the finger (no pun) down causing the locking plate to disengage from
the wall bracket. You can then lift the TV off the wall bracket. It
looked like the most common design out there and may resemble what
you have.

[Joe J]

I see said the blind man! Yes, there was a second release cord on the other
side but it was wound up around the coax and I didn't see it. My wife
pulled the two cords and I lifted it off the wall. Thanks people!

In between the bullsh*t, this group is a very handy resource!

[Joe J]

[Thomas]

I have one that has an Allen wrench screw to dismount it. It is on the
round swing left/right part. I have no canvas cord though.

I bet the owners could not figure it out.

[N8N]

I have what may be a similar type mount for a much larger TV, there
are two vertical brackets on the back and at the bottom of each there
is a catch that needs to be released so that the bottom may be swung
away from the wall. Then you lift the whole display up and off the
rail near the top of the brackets on which the brackets are hanging.
So I am wondering if maybe there's a second cord hidden somewhere (or
has fallen off?)

Mine is easier because it's not hanging from a wall but a freestanding
stand/console thing, I just pull it away from the wall :P

hope this helps,

There's a bracket that attaches to the wall and a bracket (maybe 2, as
in a matching pair) that are attached to the TV itself.

Maybe looking at where the TV-side brackets hang on the wall bracket
might give you a clue.

Good luck!

Like N8N, I have one that has two cords that dangle below
the two vertical mounting brackets. You pull them to release
the catch and pull out slightly on the bottom of the TV. That gives
you room to reach the cables. To remove the TV, you
then lift it up about 1/2", as it basicly hanging on the brackets.
Sounds like you've found one cord, and there
probably is a second one on the other side.

Rather than strain her eyes, use a pry bar if need be to scrap the
tiny TV and buy a 32" for $300 or less. She will thank you profusely

He never mentioned what type of TV that it is. I've seen many CRT TVs
that are wall mounted with a tie down/safety belt.

No, he didn't mention what kind of TV it was, but it is 2011 and
he did say it's mounted so close to the wall he can't see how it is
attached. That sure isn't the mounting in the pic in your link.
And I'm betting with Derby that it's flat panel.

Those screws may go into keyhole (the old skeleton key style) holes in the
mounting plate. They must be loosened, then the plate lifted about half an
inch until the big part of the keyhole aligns with the head of the fastener.
Then it pulls straight out.

If that's not it, good luck. Have someone hold the thing while you remove
the fasteners.

[DerbyDad03]

Look at the picture you posted and tell me why the OP would be having
these issues:

"I can't figure out how to unmount the TV from the wall mount so I can
attach the audio cables for the wireless headset."

"It's mounted so close to the wall, I can't see anything."

Neither of those would be issues with the type of mount found via the
link you've provided.

Trust me...I know. I have a TV on a very similar mount in my bedroom.

[Ron]

The picture was posted to show a "canvas type cord", nothing more.

And JFTR, I have a 13" Toshiba CRT flat screen in my kitchen. It sits
on a counter in a corner, but if I place the TV flat against the wall
you can't get to or see the inputs/outputs. The are almost flush with
the back of the TV.

[DerbyDad03]

The picture you linked to showed a canvas type *strap*.

The mount I linked to showed a cord.

I do not have the tool that is required to fit into the hole to unlock the
bracket. I have tried all the allen wrenches I own and nothing works.
Any suggestions?

[Micky]

First, depending on how old this is, it may be so heavy it requires
two people, two men, to hold it up. I helped a guy mount one of
those, but I don't remember what year it was. More than 6 years ago.
Secondly, does it really take an Allen wrench? A hexagon hole?

If so, there are sets and bigger sets. Once I got a set with 15
sizes, I think I had enough sizes. Also there is metric and
English.

I have no idea if any use Allen wrenches or not.

push. Either way you tilt the bottom out and it is still hanging from
the top if you don't tilt it too far. You can jam a piece of cardboard
between the bottom rail and the clamp so it doesn't lock up while you
walk around front to get a good grip on it. Then just lift it off Be
sure all of the cables are disconnected and out of the way so you

You will notice that the date of the original Joe J post was 12/2011.

However, Nancy seems to have revived the thread yesterday.

The subject is the same, but the question (and mounting method) is different.

[DerbyDad03]

Mine does.

The two braces that attach to the TV have "hooks" at the top and bottom.
Once you hang the TV on the mount with the top hooks and swing the bottom
of the TV in, the bottom hooks go under the bottom rail of the mount so that
the TV can't be lifted (or bumped) up (and off) unless you swing the
bottom out.

Then, to prevent the bottom of the TV from swinging out, there are 2 large
Allen head bolts that go through the top of the mount and contact the top of
the braces on the TV. Once those bolts are tightened against the braces, the
top of the TV can't go in, so the bottom can't swing out.

[DerbyDad03]

My suggestion would be to post a picture of "the hole to unlock the bracket"
so we can see what the issue is.

Another option would be to post the model number of the mount.

I'm curious, where did you find that date? I looked and did not find it.

However, it seems that all posts from

I'm not sure what the point is, except to keep usenet alive.

I appreciate all the responses. However, as I mentioned, I do not have
the tool or key to unlock the bracket. I do not believe it is a hex or
requires an allen wrench. I have a professional TV installer coming to
uninstall current TV and re-install new TV. Hopefully, he will have the

Some commie outfit trying to keep the spies out eh. I'd not last
working for a big corporation.

[Paint...@unlisted.moo]

For a brief time I worked at a "temporary job", a company where I had to
use a computer and contact a list of businesses, to make sales of their
products. This was in 2001, and we had Windows 2000. We could access the
web, but they had most popular websites blocked. (for example ebay). I
learned that it was blocked in the HOSTS file. But we could not modify
the settings within Windows. I easily got around that, using the DOS
command line, and within minutes I was able to access any website. So,
while others were sitting there bored (between our actual work), I was
shopping on ebay and looking at humorous pictures. I began saving some
of those pictures too. which would get everyone in the office laughing,
because I found a way to also send those pictures to others on the
intranet (not internet), which was just within our building.

The boss never caught on to this the whole time I was there. Soon this
job (being temporary), came to an end. Before I left, I wanted to clean
up my computer, but wanted to save those pictures. We could not use a
floppy (I tried) in those computers. That was simple enough, I just
emailed all the pictures to my own email address at home. Then I had to
once again go to the command line (Dos) to delete the pictures and
restore the original HOSTS file (which I had backed up). When I left
that job, the computer was the same way I got it.

I was always surprised the techicians who maintained the network never
caught on, however if they did, they probably just looked at those
humorous pics and laughed and never said anything to the management. I
actually think they did know, because one of them was always cracking me
up with jokes and I rarely saw him do that with other employees.

I'm sure its not as easy to tamper with modern operating systems, but
Win2000 was pretty easy to tinker with.

Not just today. After work or on days off I would often get in
arguments with guys who would be posting from their work.
Usually they were whining about other workers being deadbeats.
I had no problem pointing that out.
Hell, two managers of mine would bump bid each other's stuff they were
selling on eBay.
I worked all day on the computer, and never thought about going on the
net. Anyway, I always had a better computer at home, but the point is
it's a poor work ethic.

doesn't preclude "freedom". Other than the "meters" and "personal email"

All it takes to make the boss a fanatic about employee use of the
company computer is to have one bozo logging into a Russian porn site

Then it might cost thousands to get your data back or you can reload
all of the machines and see how good your backups are and hope that
trojan wasn't a time bomb that waited a month to fire. (taking out a
month's worth of backups as soon as you load them).

The steps shown here will allow you to remove the TV from the wall without
destroying the TV. The beauty of this method is that it can be used from in
front of the TV or from behind it.

I only have right wings. That OK?

If you are female post a picture of YOU. Then link to it here.

If you are male then detail the menu of tasty treats and refreshing
beverages so we can make plans. Lobster is a favorite of mine.

They are the best. Left wings are too nutty.

Good answer. This is the universal method when these type of pesky problems
arise. It is certainly better than using a hydraulic jack in terms of
leaving a cleaner aperture. If we knew what model number of the mount and TV
we could present a more definitive answer. Does the OP check back? Hello,
hello, we need more details.

My fraking wings are broken and I can't perch so where does that leave me. I could be like a Democrat and have someone else vote for me. If I move to Chicago I could vote after I'm dead. ¯\_(⌣̯̀⌣́)_/¯

Alright! I don't watch any pro football. Just Alabama games. Roll

I was trying to unmount my TV from the wall,tv mount is like a bracket type only I can move to right or left. I can’t find any screws that I can loosen, It is a lcd Sony Bravia TV. Please help. Thomas.

[hub...@ccanoemail.ca]

Perhaps the wall-mount-bracket has a "quick release"
- then - once the bracket + TV is removed from the wall-anchored
piece - you can un-screw the TV from the bracket. ?
or not.

I've got a Sony bracket for an XBR.
Just lift the TV.

Which brings to mind a trick I saw on Salvage Dogs to mount a long
object on a wall.
Take a 2x4 the length of the object. Cut it lengthwise at an angle
over its entire length. The two pieces together will make a cleat to
hold the object on the wall.
