The separate mounts do not allow for 16" on center so it will always need a combo of wood screws and toggle bolts. Wish the mount was one long piece, that would allow for catching more studs.

Yup, best quality DIY install video for the Frame. You, sir, have saved me from hours of confusion and frustration. Thank you!!!

That’s true, you can be the installer. I’ve wall mounted 4 TVs so far. With 2 more lined up. Thanks for all the information you pass along.

I can't believe that Samsung designed the mounting brackets to be 12" wide when standard stud distance is 16" ... The mounting brackets are basically unmountable without additional hardware.

Hopefully we'll see your review for this TV soon

I have this exact model but mine came with a template. Bought in September 2021 in Canada. So I guess they made some changes since you made this video.
My theory about those stickers is they dissipate the magnetic field so the magnets don't interfere with the TV's functions.

Installed my 50” Frame TV two weeks ago. It wasn’t easy, but I learned a couple things that help:
1) Those slippery stickers on the back of the TV are so you can adjust it slightly after it’s mounted. This is handy for leveling it since it’s really hard to get those two plates mounted exactly right.
2) If you rip those silver pieces out of the wall plates before you mount them, the TV will sit flush like it’s supposed to. Go figure. If you don’t, the TV will not lie flush against the wall.

Here’s a question, how the hell did you run conduit sideways through a wall without being stopped by a stud?? Was the wall behind the fire place built out and hollow? This would not work in a standard wall, unless you’re staying in the same stud cavity.

I just got one of these and they are finally including a template for mounting.

Great video! I have a 2019 55” frame and just got a 2021 43” for a small bedroom. Samsung has really made the install much more difficult! For the 43” not only is the mount split but there is no tilt feature which means you have to line up the screw heads on tv with a mount that you cannot see. Very disappointing.

I just mounted the 55" frame using your video as a guide. Thanks! Those toggle bolts were great. I ran to true value for the washers, no big deal.

Those big black square stickers... Since the brackets that attach to the TV are meant to slide around the attachment area, I believe those stickers are there to reduce the friction between the bracket and the TV. As for the screws, they are meant to be used with the enclosed anchors. So I'm not surprised that they don't work well screwing into a stud.

Does the type of "conduit" used in the video to protect the cable meet NEC standards? Or is this a code violation? I'm not sure this is sufficient to prevent a fire in the rare case of a cable failure.

Hello, thank you for the very informative and detailed video. I just received mine today, and it looks like Samsung has listened to the feedback of their customers as mine came with the template for wall mounting!

[kevinhavis]

Great advice, Very helpfull although I would tend to put some tape over the end of the plug whilst pulling it through to stop and plaster dusk and dirt getting I to it.

I knew to trust this guy when I saw the bluetooth earpiece in... this guy means business

Interesting video! Felt very honest and not "rigged" in any way. Love that you said it "only took a few seconds" to fish that out from the wall, I found myself inventing a little magnet fishing rod to get mine out when installing network cables and stuff, after many minutes of foul language. So, I laughed a little too much at that part. Anyway, after this I have a much better understanding to how to install one of these and what to look for regarding fastening the mounts on the wall, so thank you very much.

[bradnd]

Thanks for this. Using your tips I managed to hang my 55" Frame tonight. Never mounted a TV before so it was a major win. Looks great

[AngrySilence]

Excellent video! However, I do have some questions regarding the conduit.

▪ Will using a conduit be significantly safer than not using one? Is it practically just as safe as the pricy in-wall rated cable?
▪ What is the diameter of the conduit?
▪ And what kind of conduit is it exactly? Will any plastic conduit do, or should it be a specific one intended for electrical wire usage?

Thanks for the awesome video and great honest review. We are getting this as a compromise with my wife for the art/good tv for sports and movies. With that being said is there a way to recess a mount so that we can still get the frame look while also having the ability to angle it for optimal viewing? Thanks for the videos keep ‘em coming!
