Want to elevate your space and mount that new flat screen, but don’t know where to start? The team at The Trusted Toolbox Roswell GA has your back with this quick guide to hanging a TV like a pro. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or considering calling in our Handyman for a Day, here’s what you need to know.
What Tools Will You Need?
- TV wall mount kit (make sure it fits your TV size)
- Stud finder
- Level
- Tape measurer
- Pencil
- Screwdriver or drill
Step-by-Step Mounting Instructions:
1. Find the Studs
Use your stud finder to locate wall studs. Once located, mark them lightly with a pencil. These will provide the support your TV needs.
2. Plan the Height
How high should you mount your TV? A general rule of thumb is eye-level when seated—so get comfy and plan accordingly!
3. Attach the Wall Bracket
Hold the bracket up to the wall using a level to ensure it’s perfectly straight. Screw it securely into the studs.
4. Mount the Wall Plate
Use the provided lag bolts from your wall mount kit to install the wall plate.
5. Hang the TV
Carefully lift and hang the TV onto the wall mount. This step may require a helper to avoid accidents or damage.
6. Connect Cables and Power Up
Plug in all your necessary cables—HDMI, power, streaming devices—then turn on your TV and enjoy!
