A Full-Motion Mount Chosen to Keep a 78-inch Sony Out of a Toddler's Reach

A client on the Upper East Side wanted his large Sony TV mounted safely out of reach of a son who had just started walking. He chose a full-motion Sanus mount with cord covers instead of in-wall wiring, since the apartment is a rental.

The client called wanting his 78-inch Sony TV off the floor and out of reach — his son had just started walking and kept getting close to the screen. Because the family rents, hiding the cable inside the wall was not an option, so cord covers were chosen instead. After comparing mount options, he picked a full-motion Sanus mount for the reach and movement it offered.

  • The client first contacted NYC TV Guy on Saturday, September 12, about mounting a large TV.
  • The client said the TV was about 78 inches and was a Sony.
  • The main reason for mounting the TV was to keep it away from a toddler who had just started walking.
  • Because the client rents the apartment, he did not want cables hidden inside the wall.
  • The client chose the full-motion Sanus mount because he wanted to be able to move the TV.

On installation day, two technicians leveled and mounted the Sony TV on the Sanus full-motion mount. They checked it was straight with a level tool, then finished the wall with white cord covers so no cable showed. The TV now swivels above the white media console in the living room.

  • The installation took place on Monday, September 21.
  • Two technicians, Parviz and Damion, were assigned to the installation.
  • A blue level tool was held against the edge of the TV to check it was straight during the mount.
  • The finished TV was mounted above a white media console in the living room, with the streaming home screen visible.

    The tv mounting was fantastic from start to finish. They got the job done the next day. My co-op has burdensome insurance and liability requirements which Josue handled like a champ. And Stephen, the installer was sublime. My concrete wall was a bear. He did a meticulous s job and left my apartment cleaner than when he came. I highly recommend!

    The best company to use if you need tv's mounted. My technician Steven was quick amd efficient. He explained everything before starting each tv to be mounted and gave me advice on the height because I wasn't sure. I love the height of mounts. I can't wait to call them for my upcoming projects.

    Hired Temi from NYC TV Guy to mount two large paintings and couldn't be happier. He was fast, efficient, and clearly knew what he was doing. Both pieces are perfectly aligned with the furniture below them. Communication was excellent: he kept me updated on his ETA and any potential delays the morning of the appointment. On top of all that, he's just a genuinely nice guy to chat with. Highly recommend.

    Temi and Giovanni helped mount both a 75 inch Hisense canvas and 85 inch TCL TV. in one go. They helped measure everything out so it’d be perfectly aligned and even helped clean up everything afterwards as well.

    Temi installed our TV a year ago amazing work. Recently our floating TV cabinet that we installed ourselves came crashing off the wall. Temi came out and not only mounted it correctly, but he fixed the holes and worked to straighten the cabinet doors.
