looking for advice on a suitable bracket for mounting a 65" oled onto a plaster covered brick wall

ideally something quite flush sitting with the option to go a tad bigger in future if required

any suggestions?

Any decent Vesa mount for larger TVs will be fine.

One that you fix part to the wall and part to the TV and then lift the TV onto is easier than trying to fit in situ for a larger TV

I recently purchase a few of these for a house renovation;

this is for a 65" that is sitting flat to the wall; https://www.theplasmacentre.com/wall-brackets/tv-w...

this is for a 65" in the office which tilts down a little; https://www.theplasmacentre.com/wall-brackets/tv-w...

No issues with either

Highly recommend the Sanus range, something like the VLL5 if you want flush mount. The quality is excellent and they have built in level adjustment to get the TV perfect. £50 from richer sounds.

To fix to a plasterboard covered brick wall, Rigifix M6. I used 6 to attach my 65" Oled which is maybe overkill but it's not going anywhere.

This ^^^^

I used a

For my 65 OLED. It's about the wall fixings tbf , not the bracket. Cost around £20

Ones like I linked snap into place and are then released by poking a hole at the bottom, or pulling strings.

The built in spirit levels are random at best. You might get lucky but personally, I bought a cheap laser level. Regardless, once you tighten up 4 screws into wall plugs, any level you had will be slightly off. You the use the laser level again, but on the TV not the bracket, and you can correct any minor innacuracies with pieces of card.

7mm hole, 7mm brown rawl plugs, 5 or 6mm wide screw longer than the plug (sds drill better for brick).

Swing on it no bother.
