What Are Electric Mounts and How Do They Work?

Electric mounts are the ideal solution for displaying a TV or monitor in a quiet yet functional way.

These systems rely on electric motors for a smooth, quiet operation that will not disrupt any space, whether it’s mounted in a home or in an office.

In addition, electric mounts allow you to move your monitors into the ideal position. With the press of a button, you can raise, lower, tilt, or swivel your screen to fit your needs. 

If you are ready to upgrade your space, explore Auton’s collection, which features specialized mounts and mechanisms designed for diverse applications.

Benefits of Electric Mounts

Electric mounts bring practicality and sophistication to your home or workspace. 

Here are some reasons why they are the better choice compared to regular mounts. 

1. Convenience

Electric mounts make adjusting your TV easy. With just a remote or dedicated application, you can reposition your screen without having to get up and disrupt your flow.

These systems make your viewing experience more effortless and enjoyable, whether you tilt to reduce glare or swivel for a better angle.

2. Space-Saving Designs

Modern spaces require innovative solutions, and electric mounts deliver just that. 

For instance, Auton's Model FD-X36-75 Flip-Down-Extend Mount hides your TV in the ceiling when not in use, maintaining a clean and organized space. 

3. Enhanced Viewing Comfort

An electric mount helps you find the perfect angle for your TV. By reducing glare and placing the screen at eye level, these mounts prevent strain and enhance viewing comfort. 

Plus, customizable setups mean everyone in the room can enjoy the best view.

4. Stylish Integration

Electric mounts are designed with aesthetics in mind. Whether they are concealed in furniture or built into ceilings, these mounts add a touch of sophistication to your home or office space. 

Not only that, but each product in our collection comes with easy-to-follow instructions to ensure a straightforward integration.

5. Easy Accessibility

For households or offices with varying needs, electric mounts provide unmatched flexibility. 

Adjustments are quick and simple, making screens accessible for everyone, including children and those with limited mobility. They’re a smart choice for building inclusive spaces.

Types of Electric Mounts

Each type of electric mount has its own strengths, making it easy to find one that perfectly suits your home or office. 

You can choose an electric mount to save space or enhance your viewing experience, with options tailored to your needs.

Here are some practical and versatile options.

Flip-Down Ceiling Mounts

Flip-down ceiling mounts are designed to keep your TV out of sight when not in use. They store the TV in the ceiling and lower it into place with a motorized mechanism. 

They’re perfect for modern spaces where wall space is limited, and the tilt function ensures you always have the best viewing angle. 

These mounts are an excellent fit for sleek, minimalist setups.

Swivel Wall Mounts

Swivel wall mounts provide side-to-side screen movement, making them ideal for shared or multi-purpose spaces. You can easily adjust the screen to face different seating areas, giving everyone a clear view. 

These mounts are perfect for living rooms, conference rooms, or anywhere. Flexibility is key.

Under-Bed TV Mounts

Under-bed TV mounts hide your screen beneath the bed, keeping it completely out of sight when not in use. With a motorized lift, the TV smoothly rises into position whenever you need it. 

These mounts are a smart solution for bedrooms, especially those with limited space. They combine practicality with a touch of luxury.

How to Select the Best Electric Mount for Your Needs

Finding the right electric mount requires careful consideration of a few factors.

Here’s how to pick the best one for your needs.

• TV Compatibility. A mount must match your TV’s size and weight. It should align with your TV’s VESA pattern and support the screen dimensions without any trouble. 

• Secure Installation. For larger or heavier TVs, hiring a professional installer is often the smarter choice compared to DIY installations. Additionally, using high-quality, reliable hardware keeps the TV stable. 

• Control Options. Remotes, apps, and voice commands all offer different conveniences. Choosing a mount with multiple control options can make daily use more manageable and enjoyable.

• Extension Capability. Evaluate how far the mount can extend to achieve your desired viewing position. The Model FD-X36-75 extends 36 inches from the ceiling, providing flexibility in positioning your TV.

• Electrical Specifications. Check the electrical requirements to ensure compatibility with your setup. If it operates on either 120 VAC or 220 VAC, it can accommodate different power standards.

Choosing the right electric mount saves time and effort and improves your viewing experience. It’s a practical investment for a smooth, hassle-free setup.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

In this section, we discuss and answer common questions about electric mounts.

How Do Mounts Differ from Brackets?

Mounts let you adjust your TV’s angle and position for better viewing. Brackets, on the other hand, hold the TV firmly in place on the mount. They provide the needed stability and safety required to keep your TV secure.

Can I Use an Electric Mount With a Curved TV?

Yes, you can use an electric mount with a curved TV. The mounting holes on flat screens are the same, so there’s no difference in installation. These mounts are designed to work seamlessly with both types of TVs.
