60-Inch Full Motion TV on Rock Fireplace in Duluth, GA

A Duluth, GA homeowner wanted a 60-inch TV mounted above their stacked white rock fireplace in the living room with a full motion arm so the screen could be angled toward the sofa, the kitchen, or pulled forward for off-axis viewing. The install required masonry-rated anchoring into the irregular stacked stone face and a clean cable path down to the existing low-voltage outlet beside the mantel.

The 60-inch TV was mounted on a heavy-duty full motion articulating arm anchored directly into the stacked rock fireplace face above the floating wood mantel. Screen center was set at roughly 60 inches from the floor to keep the panel proportional to the tall stone column while still extending downward and outward for comfortable seated viewing. The full motion arm provides about 16 inches of extension and swivels left/right so the homeowners can angle the TV toward the main sofa, the open kitchen, or tilt it down to defeat reflections from the adjacent window.

A rotary hammer drill with carbide masonry bits was used to bore clean pilot holes through the stacked rock veneer into the solid backer behind it, with anchor placement carefully chosen on flat stone faces to avoid cracking edges or grout joints. Heavy-duty masonry sleeve anchors rated well above the combined weight of the 60-inch panel and articulating arm were driven and torqued to spec across four anchor points. The mounting plate was leveled with a digital level on the uneven stone surface, and the arm was load-tested at full extension before the TV was hung. Power and HDMI were routed cleanly down behind the mantel to the existing recessed outlet to keep the stone face cord-free.

The Duluth living room now has a perfectly framed 60-inch screen floating above the stacked rock fireplace, with the flexibility to swing the panel toward the sofa, the kitchen island, or away from window glare. The masonry-grade anchoring makes the full motion arm rock-solid even at full extension, and the hidden cable path keeps the dramatic stone column looking clean — all backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty.
