Hi,
I decided to get a new TV panel. And I'd like to place it in the same wardrobe, where my old one currently sits. Problem is the 42" TV is 30
cm wider, than the hole in the wardrobe. (here is the situation)
I was thinking about the way, I could make this happend and came with theese two options:
simulation
I'm somewhat handy, but the kind of rails and gears that could make this happend (pulling the 12kg TV out by opening the wardrobe door (or
manualy after it's opened)) goes beiond my imagination.
Could you help me please? Either by drawing the gear or pointing me some direction?
Thank you.
My first suggestion would be to get a smaller LCD tv.
but you can get tv wall brackets that swing out on a cantilever but you'd have to get one and try it
Very strange first post in an automotive based forum!
I don't think I will be clicking on the link thanks.

There is no panel on that wardrobe that could support a 42" TV on the end of a cantilever bracket. They're designed to be bolted to the
structural wall of a house!
I'm guessing you don't want to modify the wardrobe?

I am assuming that the wardrobe is wide and deep enough for a 42" TV to fit in at an angle, so how about a shelf that pulls out on rails and a
turntable (lazy susan bearing), so that the TV can be pulled out, rotated straight and then pushed back to the front of the wardrobe.
If you wanted to automate it, a couple of motors, screw drives, limit switches and a few relays could automate it. You could add another drive to open
the doors and make it remote controlled!

I love this forum.
Never fails to amuse me the amount of people that are brought here via a web search. For a forum that is mainly for cars and the building of cars, the
non car chat always throws up gems.
I remember the builder (brickie) that wanted to fix his cement mixer and wanted a low cost approach.
the tv should fit easily vertically, just watch it laying on the sofa!
(I also think there are mounts that allow rotation...!)

Sliding draw with a bar fixed to the door and the draw, tv sat on draw
The bar may have to be curved
Look a kitchen sliding cupboards

sell the dodgy crappy looking cupboard to some fool that thinks it an antique for loads of money and use the money to buy a proper 100inch telly.
