32″–48″ Motorised TV Lift – 650mm Travel (SMLFT-S650)

SureMount 32″–48″ Motorised TV Lift – 650mm Travel (SMLFT-S650)

The SureMount SMLFT-S650 Motorised TV Lift provides a clean and discreet way to conceal your television inside custom cabinetry, then raise it smoothly into viewing position at the touch of a button.

Designed for 32″–48″ TVs, the compact SMLFT-S650 provides 650mm of vertical travel, extending from 587mm when fully lowered to 1237mm when fully raised. Its powerful 1000N actuator supports televisions weighing up to 80kg when floor mounted, while operating quietly at less than 50dB.

Control is simple using either the supplied wireless remote control or wired RJ45 control panel. Programmable minimum and maximum height settings allow the lift’s travel to be tailored to your television, cabinetry and preferred viewing position.

Its compact dimensions make the SMLFT-S650 particularly well suited to bedrooms, living areas, meeting rooms, motorhomes, marine installations and other applications where the television needs to disappear when not in use.

For even greater flexibility, the optional SMLFT-SWIVEL conversion kit allows the raised television to be manually rotated through up to 360°, making it ideal for open-plan spaces and rooms with multiple viewing positions.

For larger televisions or installations requiring greater vertical travel, SureMount also offers the SMLFT-S1000 and SMLFT-S1300 motorised TV lifts.

📌 Important Installation Note

⚠️ Cabinetry is not included.

The SMLFT-S650 is supplied as the motorised TV lift mechanism and control system. A suitable cabinet or enclosure must be designed and constructed by your cabinet maker, builder or installer to suit the dimensions of your television, lift and required movement.

🔌 Dry Contact / Home Automation Control

The SMLFT-S650 can also be operated using dry-contact control, allowing the lift to be integrated with compatible home automation, AV control systems, relays or external switches.

The lift is activated by momentarily connecting the appropriate control conductor to the common conductor:

🟢 Green/White stripe — UP
🟤 Solid Brown — DOWN
🟠 Orange/White stripe — COMMON

Operation:

• Connect UP to COMMON to raise the lift.
• Connect DOWN to COMMON to lower the lift.
• No external voltage should be applied to these control wires — they are intended for voltage-free/dry-contact switching only.

⚠️ Important: These wire colours are based on the RJ45 control lead configuration used with the SureMount SMLFT lift system. If using a third-party RJ45 lead or custom wiring, confirm the conductor positions before connection, as cable colour conventions can vary.

🔄 Optional 360° Manual Swivel Upgrade – SMLFT-SWIVEL

Add even more viewing flexibility with the optional SMLFT-SWIVEL manual swivel conversion kit.

Once the television has been raised, the swivel kit allows it to be manually rotated through up to 360°. This is particularly useful in open-plan living areas where the television may need to face different parts of the room.

🔄 Up to 360° manual rotation
🏋️ Maximum TV weight with swivel: 60kg
📏 Adds approximately 47mm to the overall lift height
🏠 Ideal for open-plan and multi-directional viewing
⬆️ Designed for floor-mounted lift installations

⚠️ Safety Warning – Keep Clear While Operating

The SMLFT-S650 is a power-operated lifting mechanism. Always keep hands, fingers, clothing and other objects clear of the lift and all moving components while it is operating.

Particular care should be taken when a cabinet lifting plate or lid is attached to the lift, as pinch and crush points can be created between the moving plate, television, lift mechanism and surrounding cabinetry.

✔ Ensure the lift has a clear and unobstructed path of travel before operating.
✔ Keep hands and fingers away from moving parts and closing gaps.
✔ Do not allow children to operate or play around the lift.
✔ Stop operation immediately if the lift or television encounters an obstruction.
✔ Cabinetry should be designed to provide appropriate clearances around all moving components.

Never attempt to reach into the cabinet or adjust the television or lift mechanism while the lift is moving.

Always check your television’s weight, VESA mounting pattern and physical dimensions before designing the surrounding cabinet.

2️⃣ How far does the SMLFT-S650 travel?

The SMLFT-S650 provides 650mm of vertical travel.

The tower measures approximately 587mm when fully lowered and extends to approximately 1237mm when fully raised.

3️⃣ How much weight can the SMLFT-S650 support?

🔟 Can the SMLFT-S650 be installed in a motorhome, caravan or boat?

Yes. Its compact dimensions make the SMLFT-S650 particularly useful where space is limited, including motorhomes, caravans and marine installations, provided the lift can be securely mounted and a suitable power supply is available.

1️⃣1️⃣ Which SureMount lift should I choose for a larger TV?

For larger televisions or installations requiring more vertical travel, consider the SMLFT-S1000 or SMLFT-S1300.

These provide greater vertical travel and are designed to accommodate larger televisions while retaining the same convenient motorised lift concept.
