Sanus Wall Mount

Flat-screen televisions can be mounted on walls. Some mounts swivel so that you can change the angle of the television, while others are flat and do not allow for movement. These mounts can be purchased at local retail locations for around $100 or more. It is important to purchase a mount that can handle the size and weight of your television. When in doubt, always ask a salesperson for help in making the buying decision. Once at home, the process of actually mounting the television will take around an hour.

Instructions

1

Remove the stand from the television if it currently has one connected at the base. You may not be able to properly mount the television with the stand connected.

2

Find a good spot on the wall to mount your flat-screen TV and locate the studs behind the wall with a stud finder. Mark the area where you found the stud with a pencil.

3

Connect the wall bracket to the wall. Make sure that that screws go through the wall and into the stud. A socket wrench will usually complete the job; this will require some strength to connect it to the stud.

4

Attach the television bracket mount to the back of the TV.

5

Lift up the flat screen and connect the mount on the back of the TV to the mount on the wall. Make sure that the connection is tight and all the bolts are secured. It is best to have someone help you with this step to ensure that the television does not get dropped.
