Anyone recommend a slim simple cantilever TV mount for 65 inch?

Hi all, not sure if this is in the best forum to ask.

I'm looking to recess my LG OLED65C8PLA into the wall.

I am tight on space so will either box it in very tightly or even just box in the 'gubbins' so its recessed about 90% IYSWIM.

Either way I will have very limited access to the rear of the TV once its up so was looking to use a cantilever mount so I can pull the TV out a bit if I ever need to remove it or get access to the ports.

All the cantilever mounts I can find are minimum depth 60mm or so, I'm keen to reduce this as much as possible. Slimmer = less smashing up of my wall!

I also don't need the 'features' of most mounts - just the simple ability to be able to pull it out straight by a couple of inches.

Anyone recommend a slim cantilever mount?

'I also don't need the 'features' of most mounts' - is that talking from experience of using those mounts?

I can guarantee the biggest hassle you will face is being able to true up the screen and have it stay where you want it every time you pull it in/out - generally we find slim/simple/low cost = loads of hassle trying to make it work and stay where you want it.

Ensure to you plan your cables placement, minimise stress on the cables and ensure there is adequate ventilation around the rear of the Display.

interesting - I had not thought about ventilation around the back of the TV.

By features I do not need I meant swivelling to face left/right or extending a large distance.

By choice it would extend straight out a few inches and have simple adjustment for levelling.

It would only be watched in its 'in' position - I don't need to be able to level it when its extended out.

I'm wondering if I should just stick with my slim billy basic slim non-cantilever mount and accept that I will have to remove the TV if I ever need port access.

'I'm wondering if I should just stick with my slim billy basic slim non-cantilever mount and accept that I will have to remove the TV if I ever need port access.' - can be done, though you then require finger space at the sides plus 'loading' space above.

Ventilation - you need a 'flow' of cool air to ensure you are not overheating the rear of the TV.
