SureMount 55″–80″ Pull-Down Full Motion TV Mount (SMF800)
The SureMount SMF800 is a heavy-duty pull-down TV mount designed for larger TVs installed above fireplaces or in high wall positions.
Using a gas-strut counterbalance system, the mount allows you to smoothly lower your TV up to 730mm to a comfortable, eye-level viewing position — then return it neatly back above the mantel when not in use.
This solves one of the most common installation problems — TVs mounted too high — while delivering a premium, smooth-operating experience for larger and heavier screens.
With full motion functionality including swivel and tilt adjustment, the SMF800 allows you to fine-tune the viewing angle to suit different seating positions and reduce glare.

❓ FAQs – 55″–80″ Pull-Down Full Motion TV Mount (SMF800)
1️⃣ Is it safe to mount a TV above a fireplace?
Yes — provided heat levels are within your TV manufacturer’s limits.
Check:
- Wall temperature during use
- Manufacturer heat tolerance
- Ventilation around the TV
A mantel can help deflect heat.
2️⃣ How far above a fireplace should the TV be mounted?
A general guideline is 300mm above a modern gas fireplace, but always confirm based on heat output and TV specifications.
3️⃣ Will my TV cover the mount?
Many 65″–80″ TVs will fully cover the mount, depending on VESA position.
Smaller TVs may expose parts of the mount.
4️⃣ What TV weight is suitable?
This model suits 25–60kg TVs.
👉 If your TV is lighter than 25kg, consider the SMF600.
5️⃣ How far does the TV move?
- 730mm vertical drop
- 120–510mm extension
- ±30° swivel
- +10° to –5° tilt
6️⃣ What is the height-stop feature?
The 230mm height-stop prevents the TV from hitting the mantel when lowered.
7️⃣ Can I mount a soundbar?
Yes — supports rear-mounted soundbars using the included bracket.

R M Fleck (verified owner) –
We purchased this as we wanted the pull down arm feature, as we were mounting our new 65 inch Bravia TV over the fire place. Shipment was relatively quick and the product was as indicated. The arm function works well and the TV goes back up nicely. Few things to note – if you are mounting over a fireplace/heater – check the height of the TV while in the shop. This will affect placement on the wall above the fireplace, particularly as your TV may end up hitting the ceiling if you haven’t taken this into account. The another thing to be mindful of is the bottom mounting bracket. Those looking for a more “aesthetic look” may not like the fact that this bracket is visible when the TV is pushed back up against the wall. This wasn’t an issue for us – but others may want to consider a sound bar to mount under the TV to hide the bracket. Also check there is sufficient blocking in the wall to hold the TV and the mount, especially if you will be moving it a lot. And one final thing – if you are not installing this yourself and getting a third party to do it- check they know what they are installing, as the our installers got very antsy when trying to work out how it all went together as they had only installed the swing out arm type of wall bracket.
