I bought this mount from Costco yesterday. I like the way you explained the way the TV attaches to the pull out arms. The instructions that come with the mount do not explain this very well. It is amazing how you must tighten down (4) 3 1/2 inch lag bolts into studs, but the whole mechanism depends on that little 3/8 inch locking screw. Thank you for not glossing past these little details that mean so much. Nice work Sir.
it's a piece of shit, it was discontinued and the new one is useless too I got this at Costco, about a week later it was discontinued and replaced with a new model the one I got had a broken wall plate right out of the box ,the vertical bars on the wall plate are made of all plastic and it's very flimsy cheap and thin , Sanus sent me another wall plate but then when I went to the store I noticed that this mount was no longer being sold and that they had a new model in its place with almost the same exact number, the Costco item number was the same I think but the Sanus model number was different the new one says extends 28 inches from the wall as opposed to the old one saying only 26, the new mount plate has metal vertical bars on the wall plate not plastic and it's much sturdier, the new one glides much better and the new one has 2 scissors as opposed the 3 arm design and they are very deep pocketed for cable management ,much deeper pockets than the expensive model at best buy has however the pipe parts are too narrow to fit the plug from my LG C1 55" through , I will have to unscrew the the plate on the back of the TV where the plug goes in and unplug the internal power cord connector and route that end through because the outlet plug won't fit through , both the old and new model suck and are not even useable to me at all though because of the piss poor design of the wall plates , they really fucked up bad here all holes miss the mark , the farthest away holes still do not reach the studs and just miss them by a cunt hair on each side , seriously WTF! would it have fucking killed them to make this piece of shit an inch and a half longer and put holes with a little more room , I don't know what the hell these people are thinking but my only options now are to remove the end caps which double as hinges to hold the rail covers and drill 4 holes on the ends so the lag bolts can fit through, my C1 OLED weight is 42lbs w/o stand I think , not sure if this will be safe ,I could also drill out the center marker hole on the top and put a 5th lag bolt in the middle there because it should line up with my center stud if I drill holes on the very ends of the wall plate, but for $150 I should not have to be doing this shit, FFS, GET IT TO-FUCKING -GETHER SANUS !
@@richman117 just watch the video! He does a perfect job! The big thing is getting into the studs! I got one side, then used the molly bolts for the other side! I did both solo…but another set of hands would make everything much easier! Good luck!
I installed to 2 different tvs this week following these instructions on 2 different mounts and it was easy using this video Now I'm going to install my 70" TV and I'm not anticipating any problems using B The Installer
I just put one of these up for a client yesterday. You're right, those four allen head screws that hold the arm are a bear. Found on the one that I was doing that the top two holes had a bit of paint overspray in them. After a few frustrating attempts I took down the arm and threaded the screws through (in just the arm) to break away the paint residue. A little WD40 would have helped as well. I'd recommend this step for all four to make sure they aren't going to give you any resistance when you go to install the arm on the mount. There is very little room to line up the screw and I'd also recommend what you did, is get on a step ladder so you can see down from the top which enables you to line up the slot in the mount with the screw hole. Trying to to just do these by feel is a nightmare. Also with a higher up view you can see the alignment for the bottom screws as well and adjust the arm mount accordingly. Then it was a breeze!
Excellent video. The only thing I had to do was to modify where the bottom edge of the TV would reach. This was because I was mounting over a fireplace and also wanted the bottom edge of the TV to clear the fireplace mantle when pushed back against the wall and also wanted the TV to extend out away from the wall and tilt downwards. So I used your measurement guide in the video and added 6" to the height of the mount location to compensate for the 6" from the mounting bracket on back of Tv to the bottom edge. This worked out perfectly. Another comment, I have in the past broken a bolt head putting it into the 2 x 4. This is due to the pilot hole being drilled not as deep as the length of the bolt so the last 1/2 to 1" as to drive into solid wood. It's best to drill a nice long pilot hole. To remove a lag bolt into wood that has a broken head, I found the only solution is to use a small drill bit and drill along the lag bolt into the wood at like the 12/3/6/9 positions around the bolt and then you should be able to apply enough grip and torque to remove it. Then fill the hole in the 2 x 4 with wood filler.
Thanks so much for posting this video! I ordered this from Amazon yesterday, so I’m looking forward to getting it now. Your instructions really made the install that much less intimidating, thank you for that. 👍🏼
THANK YOU for posting this. I had lost the install manual and template and was happy to find your video. You helped make the job super easy with your great step by step instructions. Cheers!

Mounted a 70 inch TV yesterday using this tutorial! Awesome instructions 😎 and awesome step by step directions. TV and mount look great and totally made me feel confident.. Thanks dude!, subscribed!
The SANUS website has a height finder, you tell it which SANUS mount you have, what television you have and how high off the floor you want the top or bottom of the television and it tells you exactly were to locate the bracket. The dust pan trick is really nice!
Yeah the Sanus website is so overly complex, it's sort of funny. But if it helps people... however there is variation on heights above and beyond their attempts on that site. Just do the math as shown. Have a good one
Thanks. Yeah I had forgotten I hung on it but the editor and I figured if someone was watching that far in, it might be funny. Check out new hiding wires video.
I've watched a lot of your install video's now (debating wall mounting my 65") and they are great. You do a great job and explaining what you're up to. One favour....please please please remember to actually link your stud finding video that you've referenced in most of your install videos lol. Cheers! 😁
Thanks for the Video, I installed the whole thing through this video. Great job of explaining everything . And yes that last part with those 4 little screws was terrible, I kept dropping them. lol
Wow! Just like that! Very UNcomplicated instructions! U ROCK! 👏👏 Going ahead with install NOW! Thank you for sharing! SUBBED! Greetings from Salem, Oregon! 🌲🌲
Very good instructions, although my one complaint is how all over the place you were with your wording when it came to the measurements part. I my self had to rewatch that part like 3 times to understand where to find the measurements and what where to measure.
Hi there thanks for sharing great tutorial. I have a quick question re you able to mount the TV without the extendable arm? I just want the TV to stay flat on the wall. Thanks in advance for your response.
Great Video, wish you had done it for my new TV that isn't mounted in the center but the bottom, LG OLED 65C9, Wondering why not put the 4 annoying bolts in Before you put up the frame? Will be heavier yes but the unit will be installed complete.
We have a C9 video install. th-cam.com/video/HIjjeR3JR1c/w-d-xo.html Also, yes it's both heavy and it is difficult to properly center the tv if you put on the arm before you secure the wall plate. Thanks
Do you ever install mounts in RV's or semi truck sleepers? I think I need to just use bolts as the walls of semi sleepers and RV's are thinner have no studs and are much more flimsy. Any suggestions? Or experience with this type of wall mounting. Thanks new sub
Thank-you for this video! It is extremely helpful. I do have a question. I am attempting to screw in the top and bottom mounting plates to a SONY 75X950H and when I use the M6 X 20, the horizontal plate has a bit of play (not snug) and when I use the M6 X 12 the horizontal plate is snug. Is it okay to use use M6 X 12 even though it's almost half the size? I don't want it to not be sturdy enough. SANUS provides a 5MM spacer. Is it supposed to be used with the M6 X 20? Thank you in advance!
Question... I would like to install this slf226-b1 bracket on a stone (4-5 inch thick) wall which surrounds my gas fire place any suggestions for mounting(securing) the back plate on to the stone thanks MikeB
I barely like any videos I come across on YT, let alone comment on them, but this video really helped a lot and deserves the comment here. I was able to hang an X91CJ Sony on a wall using this exact mount and with B's careful instructions and I have to say, this was one of the most satisfying home projects that I was able to do. The hardest part was getting the 4 lag screws to go in all the way into the studs. It really helps drilling the correct size pilot holes 3.5 inches into the stud. I realized that on the 3rd lag screw. Lifting the gigantic TV onto the mount with my teenage son was a cinch. Once you have it on the mount, it will stay there because, gravity. Thank you so much B The Installer. You saved me a bunch of money. Now onto hiding those wires with the Powerbridge. th-cam.com/video/1Qr9ZoL6iH8/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for such a great video! I hv a question: Are the horizontal brackets necessary? Can I just mount the vertical bracket straight to the tv? Unfortunately the holes on my tv don’t match any hole patterns on the horizontal brackets. Thanks.
B The Installer Thank you for the reply, much appreciated. I have a 43” Sony model XBR-43X800D. The hole pattern on the tv seems to be Vesa 100x100mm which is not wide enough for the horizontal brackets. Thank you again.
My studs are 24 inches centre to centre which is fine, and all but then it throws my tv way off centre.. unless I take the arms and move it pretty much all the way to the left (farthest it will go) and then screw it in. Do you think with this exact Sanus model tv mount, it’s safe to have the arm all the way to one side or the other? Instead of having it close to the centre?
@@BTheInstaller right I understand the brackets on the tv will be centred but the arm that allows you to pull the tv out and push it back in won’t be in the centre in relation to the wall bracket itself is what I am saying... Kinda like what happened to you in your video how you marked out the exact centre from one end of the wall to the fireplace, and once mounted the wall bracket realized that you had to move the arms over a bit to where your centre line was marked, except in my case it’s all the way to the end of the wall bracket basically.
Hey brother. If you see this. I'm a disabled paralegal student. Because my health failed I have to live in a housing complex in a small 10 by 14 room. The 65 inch Hisense tv i want will have to go above my bed where I sleep. Is that safe with the right mount? Would this mount work: Mounting Dream TV Mount Bracket for 42-70 Inch Flat Screen TVs, Full Motion TV Wall Mounts with Swivel Articulating Dual Arms, Heavy Duty Design - Max VESA 600x400mm, 100 LBS Loading, MD2296 With this TV: Hisense 65-Inch Class H9 Quantum Series Android 4K ULED Smart TV with Hand-Free Voice Control (65H9G, 2020 Model) Love and Respect!
Do you recommend this mount? Or would you recommend another one? Also, is it very flat? Meaning does the tv stick out more than other mounts? I do like the tipping up and down feature.
Fire the cameraman. I know. Sorry, dude needed to learn a bit. Hard to be master TV installer and videographer at same time... "I'm human, but I'm working on it." Know the movie?
Yes it can. But it always depends on how big the tv is and how tight in the corner you want it. A single arm mount can move like a single arm while this moves like you holding you hands together and then moving your arms. A little more restrictions.
@@BTheInstaller Ah, ok :) Thank you so much for the help! I already bought this model, then realized it might be a better use of my space to mount my TV in the corner. I'm happy to hear that will likely be a viable option, since my TV is on the smaller side :)
Extremely helpful. I was considering hiring someone to install this mount for my new TV, but after watching this video I feel quite confident. Thank you for posting this.
I bought this a year ago, just now setting it up. Was completely lost by the vague instructions, the website wasn't much better. Watched this video thru once, had to check 3 times....fantastic! Great video, details, camera work and delivery
Just mounted my TV using this video almost exclusively, and it went smoothly, as someone who's not experienced with DIY. Sturdy & looks great. Thanks so much! Highly recommend to other folks :) Definotely more helpful than the instruction manual that came with the booklet alone (and probably more helpful than that booklet period, tbh)
@@BTheInstaller the mount sucks, they fucked up on the hole spacing big time I can not use this mount because it is off by just one inch on each side for max hole space if only they had a brain and made holes 1" father apart on each side it could have been used the new model at Costco is a bit different but still has the same useless hole spacing on the wall plate which at least is all metal this time and doesn't have the cheap plastic vertical rails I am sure you have seen it , it has hinged rail covers ,it comes out 28 inches not 26, has 2 scissors not the tri fold arms . if I unscrew the rail end caps that double as hinges for the rail covers the holes in the metal tabs/rail ends where the end caps screw into will fit over the holes in my wall from my old stationary mount but those holes are too small for the lag bolts to fit through unless I drill them out , do you think it would be safe to drill out those holes so the lags bolts will fit through and use those and also drill out the up orientation hole wider to fit a lag bolt it would work, I think I can hit the center stud with that center "up" hole ,so 5 lags bolts one on each of the 4 corners extended beyond the provided oval holes and one in the middle on the top rail the TV is 42 or 43 Lbs ,a C1 OLED 55" or do you have any other ideas on how to get this to work where the holes are just one each short of the studs on each side , besides opening up the wall and bolting 2x4 blocks to the studs? This thing really just sucks I can't believe Sanus was too stupid to just provide a longer wall mount in the first place, especially since they just totally redesigned the thing , how could they miss this glaring oversight or do they just want us to buy the $350 model from BB if that one can even be mounted at all either I don't know, but it looks like the plate on that one is 33" and this one is only 28" going by overall width description specs which doesn't specify the max distance for wall mount holes that I can see, I imagine the expensive one has wider maximum hole spacing on the wall plate , do you know if the arm on this new model is compatible with any other wider Sanus wall plates? maybe I could get them to send me another wall plate that is 2" longer that this war can work with , but this is just a horrible design missing the mark by just 1" on each side

it's a piece of shit, it was discontinued and the new one is useless too
I got this at Costco, about a week later it was discontinued and replaced with a new model

that this mount was no longer being sold and that they had a new model in its place with almost the same exact number, the Costco item number was the same I think but the Sanus model number was different
the new one says extends 28 inches from the wall as opposed to the old one saying only 26, the new mount plate has metal vertical bars on the wall plate not plastic and it's much sturdier, the new one glides much better and the new one has 2 scissors as opposed the 3 arm design and they are very deep pocketed for cable management ,much deeper pockets than the expensive model at best buy has
however the pipe parts are too narrow to fit the plug from my LG C1 55" through , I will have to unscrew the the plate on the back of the TV where the plug goes in and unplug the internal power cord connector and route that end through because the outlet plug won't fit through , both the old and new model suck and are not even useable to me at all though because of the piss poor design of the wall plates , they really fucked up bad here
all holes miss the mark , the farthest away holes still do not reach the studs and just miss them by a cunt hair on each side , seriously WTF! would it have fucking killed them to make this piece of shit an inch and a half longer and put holes with a little more room , I don't know what the hell these people are thinking but my only options now are to remove the end caps which double as hinges to hold the rail covers and drill 4 holes on the ends so the lag bolts can fit through, my C1 OLED weight is 42lbs w/o stand I think , not sure if this will be safe ,I could also drill out the center marker hole on the top and put a 5th lag bolt in the middle there because it should line up with my center stud if I drill holes on the very ends of the wall plate, but for $150 I should not have to be doing this shit, FFS, GET IT TO-FUCKING -GETHER SANUS !

Use toggle bolts through the metal stud flange.

Thank you so much! This helped a lot!
Hi i looking at one for my a90j 83 do you know the how far i can have it out from the wall ?
So if the wall bracket is off center due to stud placement, how do you adjust the arm to be center?
This might be a stupid question, but am I supposed to drill into where the stud is?
I can catch 2 studs with this mount but the tv portion of this mount will be slid all the way to one side of the mount. Is this a problem?
Whats the difference between SLF428-B1 and OLF22-B2??

Good job
Hi which model Zircon stud finder do you find the best
Are you installing in Virginia area
Thank-you for this video! It is extremely helpful. I do have a question. I am attempting to screw in the top and bottom mounting plates to a SONY 75X950H and when I use the M6 X 20, the horizontal plate has a bit of play (not snug) and when I use the M6 X 12 the horizontal plate is snug. Is it okay to use use M6 X 12 even though it's almost half the size? I don't want it to not be sturdy enough. SANUS provides a 5MM spacer. Is it supposed to be used with the M6 X 20?
Thank you in advance!
Good video. Will this work on LG65 C1 which is vesa 300 x 200? And does it block any ports at all?
Question... I would like to install this slf226-b1 bracket on a stone (4-5 inch thick) wall which surrounds my gas fire place any suggestions for mounting(securing) the back plate on to the stone thanks MikeB
Thanks for your videos. What you think about Costco’s Kanto 40" - 90" Full-Motion TV Mount
Item 657260 Model FMX3.
Kanto mounts are good. I'm sure it would be just fine.
Wow, most helpful!!
No anchors??
I barely like any videos I come across on YT, let alone comment on them, but this video really helped a lot and deserves the comment here. I was able to hang an X91CJ Sony on a wall using this exact mount and with B's careful instructions and I have to say, this was one of the most satisfying home projects that I was able to do. The hardest part was getting the 4 lag screws to go in all the way into the studs. It really helps drilling the correct size pilot holes 3.5 inches into the stud. I realized that on the 3rd lag screw. Lifting the gigantic TV onto the mount with my teenage son was a cinch. Once you have it on the mount, it will stay there because, gravity. Thank you so much B The Installer. You saved me a bunch of money. Now onto hiding those wires with the Powerbridge.

Amazing video
Thanks
Wait ..... no plugs????
Thank you for such a great video! I hv a question: Are the horizontal brackets necessary? Can I just mount the vertical bracket straight to the tv? Unfortunately the holes on my tv don’t match any hole patterns on the horizontal brackets. Thanks.
What tv do you have? Those horizontal bars can fit any pattern I can think of. You'd have to elaborate on the tv.
B The Installer Thank you for the reply, much appreciated. I have a 43” Sony model XBR-43X800D. The hole pattern on the tv seems to be Vesa 100x100mm which is not wide enough for the horizontal brackets. Thank you again.

Blt3 mount?
My studs are 24 inches centre to centre which is fine, and all but then it throws my tv way off centre.. unless I take the arms and move it pretty much all the way to the left (farthest it will go) and then screw it in. Do you think with this exact Sanus model tv mount, it’s safe to have the arm all the way to one side or the other? Instead of having it close to the centre?
Just move the wall plate to hit one stud somewhat centered.keep the brackets on tv centered for sure.
@@BTheInstaller right I understand the brackets on the tv will be centred but the arm that allows you to pull the tv out and push it back in won’t be in the centre in relation to the wall bracket itself is what I am saying... Kinda like what happened to you in your video how you marked out the exact centre from
one end of the wall to the fireplace, and once mounted the wall bracket realized that you had to move the arms over a bit to where your centre line was marked, except in my case it’s all the way to the end of the wall bracket basically.
Hey brother. If you see this. I'm a disabled paralegal student. Because my health failed I have to live in a housing complex in a small 10 by 14 room. The 65 inch Hisense tv i want will have to go above my bed where I sleep. Is that safe with the right mount?
Would this mount work:
Mounting Dream TV Mount Bracket for 42-70 Inch Flat Screen TVs, Full Motion TV Wall Mounts with Swivel Articulating Dual Arms, Heavy Duty Design - Max VESA 600x400mm, 100 LBS Loading, MD2296
With this TV:
Hisense 65-Inch Class H9 Quantum Series Android 4K ULED Smart TV with Hand-Free Voice Control (65H9G, 2020 Model)
Love and Respect!
What about samsung
85''
where in socal are you located?
I run an install business in San Diego. www.socalinstalls.com
B The Installer I love San Diego!
Do you recommend this mount? Or would you recommend another one? Also, is it very flat? Meaning does the tv stick out more than other mounts? I do like the tipping up and down feature.
at around 13 minutes when you are leveling the camera is completely out of focus
Fire the cameraman. I know. Sorry, dude needed to learn a bit. Hard to be master TV installer and videographer at same time... "I'm human, but I'm working on it." Know the movie?
can i mount my 82" Samsung tv to this sme wall mount
Yes
u da goat
Can I use this mount on a 58in hisesne 200x300?
it can if you mean 300 wide...
Does anyone know if this wall mount can be installed in a corner?
Yes it can. But it always depends on how big the tv is and how tight in the corner you want it. A single arm mount can move like a single arm while this moves like you holding you hands together and then moving your arms. A little more restrictions.
@@BTheInstaller Ah, ok :) Thank you so much for the help! I already bought this model, then realized it might be a better use of my space to mount my TV in the corner. I'm happy to hear that will likely be a viable option, since my TV is on the smaller side :)

Thanks, this video was extremely helpful
🙏
Extremely helpful. I was considering hiring someone to install this mount for my new TV, but after watching this video I feel quite confident. Thank you for posting this.
I bought this a year ago, just now setting it up.
Was completely lost by the vague instructions, the website wasn't much better. Watched this video thru once, had to check 3 times....fantastic!
Great video, details, camera work and delivery
Just mounted my TV using this video almost exclusively, and it went smoothly, as someone who's not experienced with DIY. Sturdy & looks great. Thanks so much! Highly recommend to other folks :) Definotely more helpful than the instruction manual that came with the booklet alone (and probably more helpful than that booklet period, tbh)
Haha I would hope so. That shit confuses me. Haha. I am dropping a really good uninstall video tomorrow. Tv on wall to wall painted and no sign of tv.
@@BTheInstaller the mount sucks, they fucked up on the hole spacing big time
I can not use this mount because it is off by just one inch on each side for max hole space if only they had a brain and made holes 1" father apart on each side it could have been used
the new model at Costco is a bit different but still has the same useless hole spacing on the wall plate which at least is all metal this time and doesn't have the cheap plastic vertical rails I am sure you have seen it , it has hinged rail covers ,it comes out 28 inches not 26, has 2 scissors not the tri fold arms .
if I unscrew the rail end caps that double as hinges for the rail covers the holes in the metal tabs/rail ends where the end caps screw into will fit over the holes in my wall from my old stationary mount but those holes are too small for the lag bolts to fit through unless I drill them out , do you think it would be safe to drill out those holes so the lags bolts will fit through and use those and also drill out the up orientation hole wider to fit a lag bolt it would work, I think I can hit the center stud with that center "up" hole ,so 5 lags bolts one on each of the 4 corners extended beyond the provided oval holes and one in the middle on the top rail
the TV is 42 or 43 Lbs ,a C1 OLED 55"
or do you have any other ideas on how to get this to work where the holes are just one each short of the studs on each side , besides opening up the wall and bolting 2x4 blocks to the studs?
This thing really just sucks I can't believe Sanus was too stupid to just provide a longer wall mount in the first place, especially since they just totally redesigned the thing , how could they miss this glaring oversight or do they just want us to buy the $350 model from BB if that one can even be mounted at all either I don't know, but it looks like the plate on that one is 33" and this one is only 28" going by overall width description specs which doesn't specify the max distance for wall mount holes that I can see, I imagine the expensive one has wider maximum hole spacing on the wall plate , do you know if the arm on this new model is compatible with any other wider Sanus wall plates? maybe I could get them to send me another wall plate that is 2" longer that this war can work with , but this is just a horrible design missing the mark by just 1" on each side
Excellent video mate, made the install so easy, greatly appreciated all the way from Australia!!👍👍
You the best ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🥇🏆🏆🥇🥇⭐⭐🥇
