One of the benefits of modern flat screen televisions is that they can be conveniently mounted on the wall for convenience and safety. Your television is a big investment, so, if you mount it, you want the job done correctly. Follow the following steps for mounting a flat screen to the wall, and you’ll soon be enjoying this space-saving innovation.
- Start by checking the weight of your flat screen TV. You can find this information in the manual or online.
- If your television is lighter than 80 lbs., you can hang it from a single wall stud. If it is heavier, you may need to hang it from two wall studs. Use a stud finder to find the exact location on your wall.
- Place the mounting bracket or brackets for your television at the appropriate height you’ve selected for your television. Eye level works for most set-ups, although some people like to place their television higher up. Once you’ve found the right alignment, use a pencil to mark the places where you’ll be attaching screws and bolts to the wall. Next, predrill holes in each of these marks.
- Once you’ve attached the brackets by following manual instructions, then attach the television to the brackets as instructed. Once this is finished, your television has been successfully mounted. You can conceal unsightly cords by running a wire molding down from the television.
