Grip-It TV Bracket Plasterboard Fixing Kit

Product Information

Using a TV stand is by far the simplest option but depending on the size of your TV, these pieces of furniture can intrude into an already crowded living room. There’s a cable inlay system for keeping cables neat and tidy, and it’s available in a choice of black or white. I mean, the TV wont be going on the outside of my flat, but I know thats not what you mean, but I dont really know the difference!

Its really important to make sure that when drilling, you drill into the wooden struts, as these will bear most of the weight of the mount with the TV on it. As tellies have changed over the years, from bulky and small, to large and slim, so have the installation methods. If you’re working with someone, you could have them lift one side of the TV while you take the other. Before tv mounting on plasterboard wall, you need to keep in mind all the risks and other factors before installing in the required place.The deluxe method would be to cut out the section of plaster to match your bracket, and use wood in the hole (not over it).

as real users, posing a threat to a site’s security, so the site sometimes runs random security checks. I used some of them when putting my home cinema together and I wanted cables behind the walls from amp to speakers and projector. To estimate how strong the anchors should be, add the weight of the mount and TV, then add on an extra 20% to the result for safety. The TV has to go on the wall as we dont have a lot of space, but I can just imagine waking up one day and finding a nice big hole where the tv used to be. Generally, the center of a 42 in (110 cm) TV should be mounted 56 in (140 cm) from the floor, and larger TVs can be mounted a little higher to keep them at eye level.Regards water damage yes thats death to plasterboard but if you read carefully you will see that this is a new build so damage unlikely. Compatible with screens ranging in size from 37-inches to 70-inches, this mount offers 160 degrees of swivel and +8 to -5 degrees of tilt. Firstly they switch most of the loadings on the wall from shear loadings (down the wall) to axial loadings (away from the wall). You will notice small “teeth” on the bolt at the head end, these are designed to stop the bolt from spinning. If you don’t feel confident doing this yourself, always speak to a professional rather than doing a poor quality job.

Televisions are by no means cheap, so it’s always a good idea to put careful consideration into mounting your TV correctly and safely. Next, you’ll need to check that the bracket you've got your sights set on can handle the size and weight of your TV. That's a lot of versatility for a bracket costing so little, and it even comes with a spirit level and HDMI cable (although the cable isn't rated for 4K). Toggle bolts would work great for any kind of wall hooks, but not so much for TV mounts where you need to put more than one at a time.if it bends slightly after the new telly is fully installed, you can be sure it will give you trouble later on. To work it out, measure the distance between the holes from left to right for the first measurement and then top to bottom for the second. so really appreciate the advice your able to provide, as I'd like to get better at this sort of thing myself.

If you’re able to do this, you can keep the TV near the wall so you don’t have to carry it as far to hang it up. Yes the wall is an internal, and i've done some drilling on the walls in the house (curtains/cabinets etc) and the drill only really drills for a few inches, then goes right through the wall. Even if the wall stays in one piece when drilled, it’s still possible it will break while you’re mounting the TV.Even if the wall stays fine during the drilling process, it can still break off once the TV is installed onto it. It comes with all the fixtures and fittings you’ll need for both solid or stud walls and is compatible with VESA 50 x 50 to 200 x 200. After taking ages in locating the wooden struts, we drilled where we thought they *wouldnt* be, only to find that they were everywhere!
