What it is and who it’s for
The Kanto R500 is a recessed in-wall full-motion TV mount designed for flat-panel screens from 46 to 80 inches. It fits between standard 16-inch stud centres and holds displays up to 135 lb (62 kg) with VESA patterns ranging from 100x100 to 600x400. When retracted the screen sits just 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) from the wall, and the articulating arm extends up to 27.6 inches (70.2 cm) for tilt and swivel adjustment.
Who it suits and who should look elsewhere
This mount suits installers who want an ultra-low-profile recessed installation with full articulation for living-room or bedroom TVs within the stated size and weight range. It is not for screens larger than 80 inches or heavier than 135 lb, nor for walls without 16-inch stud spacing, and it does not serve buyers who need a fixed or non-recessed mounting style.
The specification that decides fit
The decisive specification is the recessed design that requires 16-inch on-centre stud spacing; if the wall cavity does not match this spacing the mount cannot be installed as intended.

Questions about this item
Will the 16-inch stud spacing requirement work with the framing behind my existing drywall?
The mount is designed to fit securely between studs measuring 16 inches on centre; verify your wall cavity matches that spacing before cutting the opening.
How can I confirm the 1.25-inch retracted depth and 90-degree swivel are functioning correctly after installation?
With the TV mounted, push it fully back — it should sit 1.25 inches from the wall — then gently pull and rotate; smooth travel to 90 degrees each way confirms the articulating arm is operating as intended.
Does the package include the in-wall recessed box and all lag bolts, or must I purchase the mounting hardware separately?
The box contains the recessed wall plate, articulating arm, VESA brackets covering 100x100 to 600x400 patterns, and the necessary lag bolts and spacers for wood-stud installation; no extra hardware is required for a standard 16-inch stud bay.
