Wall mount spacers

I'm wanting to put my tv on the wall but as the plug socket will be behind the tv,  the wall spacers are big to hold the tv further out from the plug, could I get larger spacers? Not sure on what to do

Hi @Cassidy1 

 

Sky only provide the mount / stand as is. You could look at getting a 3rd party mount. Glass is compatible with any VESA mount as long as it can take the weight of the glass TV.

The supplied spacers are designed to give the lowest possible profile mounting while still seating securely: Sky won't provide any others.

 

You can source your own deeper spacers or improvise using washers: just be aware that the further the plate is from the wall, the more leverage the weight of the set is exerting on the bolts and the fabric of the wall itself.

 

Perhaps also note that concealing the plug makes rebooting the set considerably more awkward.
