We wanted to move the tv in our motorhome from the poorly located area above the dashboard to above the entrance door.  We attached the bracket to the side of the overhead cupboard and had enough extension to have it lay flat against the outside wall above the door.  When travelling, we either use a strap to secure it, or remove it from the bracket and place it on the bed.  When we get home, we remove the tv and slip it on the second bracket we bought for the bedroom.
