Default Mounting a plasma screen in a recess.

Quite a lot of people are now mounting plasma screens recessed into the
wall (or false chimney breast) so front of display is flat with wall.
Also hides cables which SWMBO's will approve.

However what type of plasma bracket do they use ?

I assume it must be a "concertina" type bracket to enable the screen to
be pulled forward to allow cabling access ?

Anyone any ideas ?

I intend to build a "false" chimney breast say 8" deep on the big wall
in our lounge and mount a 50" plasma recessed into the breast. Cables
will exit at bottom right into a suitable unit containing DVD, receiver
amp etc. How do I mount the screen so it is both safe and can get access
to rear to add/remove leads etc.


The bigger issue in doing this is you're kinda locked in to a particular
shape and size when the time comes to replace it. The way tvs are these
days, most people don't stick with them 5 years or more.

Is a bracket on the wall _that_ bad?
