Pacing VESA brackets behind a TV
Mounting a TV securely requires the right tools and techniques to ensure safety and stability. One crucial step in this process is properly placing VESA brackets behind the TV before mounting it onto a TV mount. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to do it:
What You'll Need:
- Elephant Anchors
- Drill and appropriate drill bits
- VESA brackets
- TV mount kit
- Screws and screwdriver
- Measuring tape
- Pencil
Step 1: Determine VESA Compatibility
Start by identifying the VESA pattern of your TV. This refers to the pattern of mounting holes on the back of your TV. Check your TV’s manual or measure the distance between the mounting holes (both horizontally and vertically).
Step 2: Mark the Position for VESA Brackets
Using a measuring tape and pencil, mark the precise locations on the wall where the VESA brackets will be placed. Ensure the markings align with the VESA pattern on the back of your TV.
Step 3: Install Elephant Anchors
Drill pilot holes at the marked positions on the wall. Insert the Elephant Anchors into these holes. Make sure the anchors are securely fitted and flush with the wall surface.
Step 4: Attach VESA Brackets
Align the VESA brackets with the markings on the wall and secure them using appropriate screws. Ensure the brackets are level and securely attached to the wall.
Step 5: Mount the TV
With the VESA brackets securely in place, lift and carefully mount the TV onto the brackets. Ensure that all screws are tightened properly to prevent any wobbling or instability.
Step 6: Final Checks
Once the TV is mounted, perform final checks to ensure it is stable and level. Test the TV’s position and adjust if necessary.
