Question 1

Is it good to mount a TV on the wall?

Accepted Answer

It's not wrong to mount a TV to a wall, as long as it's mounted correctly into studs or correctly anchored into concrete or brick per manufacturer's specs. Mounting your TV frees up space on your entertainment system and creates a seamless visual in your space.

Question 2

Can any flat-screen TV be wall mounted?

Accepted Answer

While most flat screens can be wall-mounted, not all mounts will fit your tv and vice versa. Before shopping for a TV mount, look for your flat screen's VESA — Video Electronics Standards Association — measurement and shop for a TV mount with the same VESA measurement. Most mounts will have weight limits as well, so make sure the television isn't too heavy for your chosen TV wall mount.

Question 3

How thick should the wall be in order to mount the tv securely?

Accepted Answer

You should not mount into a wall or drywall alone unless you have secured anchors or toggle anchors in the drywall, and the mount you've selected is for mounting onto drywall. You want to mount into the wood or metal studs — typically 2x4 or 2x6 studs — behind your drywall with the help of a stud finder.

Question 4

Can you mount a TV with only two screws?

Accepted Answer

Technically, yes. But you should know, most TVs have four contact points between the mount and the TV. Only attaching two of them for any reason — height, accessibility, compatibility of the TV and mount — can decrease the mount's integrity and potentially damage your TV and walls and void any warranty included with the mount.
