From the Manufacturer
Professional Grade, American Made

PDR Mounts is a division of David Engineering & Manufacturing Inc., which began in 1972 as a contract manufacturer. Established as a primary supplier to several major electronic manufacturing corporations in 1988, a decade of reliable performance qualified PDR to begin making OEM-branded mounts for some of the largest display manufacturers in the late 1990’s. We continue that tradition today. PDR Mounts has produced some of the world's strongest mounts for the consumer market with an uncompromising commitment to quality and value.

PDR means absolutely dependable strength

Each PDR mount design is tested to exceed UL standards by using rugged proven gauge steels, not the typical lesser gauge metals most competitors use in their mounts…often resulting in their product being as much as 30% weaker. Very importantly, no PDR mount components are welded or diecast - two features that could be subject to catastrophic failure, and are used by many other mount providers. Each PDR mount is made up of whole steel interlocking pieces, ensuring dependable strength under heavy loads. In addition, unlike competitive mount products, PDR mounts are expected to function properly AFTER being subjected to 4X-5X load testing. As a result of (greater-than-UL) strenuous load-testing criteria we set for all PDR mount designs and a total quality commitment, all PDR mounts have a "Peace-Of-Mind" Lifetime Warranty.

All PDR mounts are proudly made in the USA, manufactured in our factory in Southern California. Keeping all design, manufacturing, and product testing in-house and using a stringent ISO 9001:2000 quality system means complete PDR control of every step in the process of producing some of the most dependable and satisfying products on the market today. This complete "Peace-of-Mind" Lifetime Product Warranty separates PDR Mounts products from the rest, with the most comprehensive satisfaction guarantee on the market today.

Customer Reviews

Great TV wall mount!
This review is specific to the PDR Ultra Slim fixed mount for 37"-60" Flat Panels. I bought this to mount my new 52" Samsung. Very simple and heavy duty design. It consists of a plate that you bolt to the wall and a plate that attaches to the back of your TV. The two simply hook together being held by gravity. There is also a locking bar included which should prevent any unintentional movement once mounted. You'll need two people, a tape measure to center the mount into the proper location, a stud finder, a drill with bits to drill pilot holes in to studs, a wrench or socket set to bolt lag bolts into the pilot holes and, and a level to keep it all level!

I wanted the TV to be as close to the wall as possible and this is truly ultra slim. The cables coming out of the back of the TV barely have enough clearance from the wall. I poked a hole in the drywall behind where the TV was going to be and fed all the cables down to another hole where my components were. You can't gain access to the back panel of the TV without taking it off the wall, so be sure to attach all cables you might need. I forgot to run the power cable through the wall the first time!

Great price (especially after the rebate I got) and great solid product. I'm very happy.

Solid Construction, Poor Packaging, Minor hardware glitch
The PDR box was damaged somewhere in shipping. One end (the end with the barcode needed for the rebate) was missing and the mounting screws were loose inside the box and on my front porch. Normally, I simply return the box, but time constraints led me to keep the remaining intact contents. The hardware that remained in the box was loose, but undamaged and adequate (see below) for mounting my TV.

PDR customer service was very responsive and offered to send out additional hardware if I needed, but I declined. PDR may consider beefing up its packaging or having Amazon overpack the boxes before reshipment.

One comment on my mounting experience with PDR. I went to attach the mounting arms to my Samsung LN52A550 LCD TV and found out that the 8mm x 40 screws were about 1/4" too long when screwed into the TV all the way (including the mounting arm and square bracket washer). The 8mm x 20's were too short to even use, so I tried the plastic spacers which put the arms out about an inch from the TV. I didn't want to add another inch to the profile and didn't want the extra moment arm length, so I went to my local hardware store and purchased some 8mm x 35mm screws and they worked perfectly to attach the arms flat against the TV. You may want to consider 35's instead of 40s for Samsungs. PDR was contacted and is researching the Samsung mount hole issue. Otherwise the installation was effortless and I'm very happy with the quality construction of the product.

PDR contacted me and stated that the rebate process will be resolved despite my missing product barcode. Good customer service!

PDR Heavy Duty Mount for Flat Panel is very stable,easy to hang
This thing is very easy to mount (about 15 minutes) and is very stable. I have an LG 42" LCD and it works great! I've had it for over a month now and it works very well. There also is a locking feature on it so the T.V. can not be removed.
