In some rooms, the classic way of mounting a TV on a wall is not suitable. There are many reasons for positioning a TV in the corner. Maybe you have little space on the wall of your living room. There are several solutions for mounting or placing your TV safely and hassle-free. You can choose between a TV wall mount or a TV stand. In this article, you will find pros and cons for both options and our recommendations for what to look out for in a product as well as Vogel’s stands and brackets you can use for a TV in the corner.
Vogel's offers various TV wall mounts. Not all of them are suitable for mounting a TV in a corner. We recommend the swivel TV wall mounts, which allow you to position the TV in the corner and choose the perfect viewing angle.
Our premium wall mounts with an electric swivel function and innovative design. They were manufactured to mount large, slim TVs weighing up to 35 kg. Move your TV effortlessly up to 120° with one finger or via app, voice and remote control.
The TV plays an important role in interior design planning. It is often the central part of the living room and provides the perfect entertainment.
Some of the main advantages of a corner wall mount are:
Saving space: A TV in the corner is a great advantage, especially in smaller rooms such as the kitchen.
Improved view on the TV: A TV in the corner can be clearly visible from different seating positions.
Less glare: By placing it in the corner, you can reduce direct sunlight and reflections.
Flexibility in furnishing: Corner mounting a swivel TV bracket offers more freedom in room design.
A TV mount in the corner also has a few disadvantages. It is often worth attaching the television to the wall rather than in the corner.
Disadvantages of corner mounting can be:
Limited TV size: Large TVs in the corner could make the room look cluttered.
Limited storage space: Corners often offer less space for additional devices such as game consoles and receivers.
Difficulty positioning seating: When furnishing your living room, properly positioning a couch can be problematic if your TV is to be in the corner.
Difficulty positioning speakers: Properly positioning surround sound systems can be more complicated in the corner.
What should you pay attention to when installing your TV bracket in a corner? In general, you only need to pay attention to two important points:
You should check in advance whether the bracket you have selected is suitable for corner installation and whether it fits your TV. All TV brackets that can be swivelled in both directions are suitable for corner installation. Make sure that the wall bracket allows your TV to be rotated from 120° to 180°. Then you can easily mount the bracket yourself on one of the two walls close to the corner and rotate the TV into the desired position.
If you want to put your TV in the corner but don't want to mount it on the wall, Vogel's offers various alternatives. Another popular option is to place your TV on a TV stand. This way you can push it straight into the corner and change the position at any time. Our swivel TV stands also have the function of rotating your screen up to 90° without having to move the stand itself.
