Step-by-Step Guide to Wall Mounting a TV

1. Choose the Right Mount

• Fixed Mount: Great for low-profile setups.
• Tilting Mount: Best if your TV will be mounted higher on the wall.
• Full-Motion Mount: Ideal for corner placements or if you need flexible viewing angles.

2. Locate Wall Studs

Use a stud finder to identify where the wooden studs are in your wall. Mounting your TV into drywall alone is not safe and can cause your TV to fall.

3. Measure and Mark

Decide the best height for your screen. Eye level while seated is ideal. Mark holes where screws will go using a level to avoid a tilted screen.

4. Drill and Install Bracket

Drill pilot holes into the studs, then secure the bracket using heavy-duty screws and anchors if necessary.

5. Attach the TV

Secure the mounting plate to the back of your TV, lift and lock it onto the wall bracket. It’s always safer with two people.
