- Find the studs. Once you've settled on the perfect spot on the wall, you'll need to find the studs to mount the bracket properly. Mounting your TV wall bracket to the studs provides the structural strength necessary to support a TV that could weigh anywhere between 30 and 100 pounds.
- Mark the hole position. Next you'll need to mark specifically where you plan to screw into the wall. Ideally, you will use a level to ensure that these marks are not only even between the two studs, but also to make sure that the amount will not be slanted.
- Double check the bracket position. With your marks in place, it's time to position the mounting bracket on the wall. First, place the bracket flat against the wall, lining up one screw location with the first marked hole.
- Drill pilot holes. Using a drill, you'll need to drill pilot holes through the drywall and into the studs in the proper positions.
- Choose the right location. When choosing the ideal location to wall mount your TV there are a few things to think about. Consider the viewing angles from all of the seating in the room and the proximity to an outlet.
- Attach mounting arm to TV. Following the instructions on your mount, attach the mounting arm to your TV using the pre-existing threaded holes on the back of your TV.
- Locate your wall studs. Using a stud finder in the area you’ve chosen, locate two studs and mark their locations on your wall with a pencil.
- Position the cardboard template. If your wall mount box has a template, tape it to the wall so the stud locations line up with the template’s drill holes.
