Apparently, the elbow joints of these faulty mounts were unable to carry the weight of the mounted TV screen as claimed. Depending on the weight of the display, people are experiencing sinking, slumping or falling televisions.<\/p>\n<p>An appealing design is not always a guarantee of a safe installation.<\/p>\n<p>Atdec, Australia\u2019s largest flat screen mounting company and a world leader in mounting innovation and design, advises consumers to research TV mounts thoroughly before making a purchase, as many TV mounts in the market today may look fancy and have an attractive price tag, but are actually a poor and inferior display support system in disguise.<\/p>\n<p>Jerome Green, managing director at Atdec, says, \u201cHaving aesthetically pleasing qualities doesn\u2019t mean you have to compromise on safety for flat panel mounting in the home and commercial situation. Smart design today isn\u2019t just strength or aesthetics. It means functionality, environmentally responsible design, ease of installation and stylish design without compromising strength and durability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Atdec has a strict quality control system based on years of research and development and vigorous testing so that its TV mounts not only have sleek designs but also have the capacity to hold heavier screens securely.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Atdec\u2019s <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Telehook TH-3270-UFM<\/span><\/strong> has the capacity to hold 65kg in weight, and comes pre-assembled which guarantees a quick and easy installation.<\/p>\n<p>Atdec\u2019s <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Telehook TH-400-LED<\/span><\/strong> allows displays to be \u2018hung\u2019 from the wall using a state-of-the-art picture-hanging principle. The TH-400-LED is lightweight yet strong and durable, allowing any display up to 50kg in weight with a 400mm-wide VESA mounting hole pattern to be \u2018hung\u2019 only 15\u00bcmm from the wall.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Telehook TH-3060-LPF<\/span><\/strong> offers the closest wall contact for ultra-slim TVs &#8211; just 14mm from the wall. It can carry all displays weighing up to 65kg, and is held from the wall with an easy to attach click-on mounting system, combined with a safety spring lock.<\/p>\n<p>Atdec TV mounting designs marry functionality with safety, and are available in Australia and New Zealand.
