The TRUTH behind mounting on drywall without metal studs!
In this post, we uncover the reality behind mounting on drywall without metal studs and how Elephant Anchors make it not only possible but incredibly secure!
Mounting a TV or any heavy object on drywall can be nerve-wracking, especially if you don’t have metal studs for support. Many people believe that mounting directly onto drywall is risky or even impossible. But is that really the truth?
The Common Misconception
Many DIYers and homeowners assume that drywall alone cannot hold the weight of a TV, shelf, or other heavy objects. Traditional screws and anchors often fail because drywall is not designed to support significant weight on its own. This leads to horror stories of TVs crashing down, walls getting damaged, and people feeling stuck without a reliable mounting solution.
But here’s the truth: it IS possible to mount a TV or other heavy objects on drywall safely—IF you use the right tools. That’s where Elephant Anchors come in.
What Are Elephant Anchors?
Elephant Anchors are heavy-duty drywall anchors designed to securely hold weight on drywall, even without metal studs. Unlike traditional wall anchors, these are specifically engineered to expand behind the drywall, creating a strong grip that prevents the anchor from pulling out.
Why Elephant Anchors Work So Well:
✅ Supports Up to 200 lbs
Unlike standard plastic anchors, Elephant Anchors can hold extreme weight, making them perfect for mounting TVs, shelves, and other heavy items.
✅ No Metal Studs Needed
These anchors work directly in drywall, eliminating the frustration of locating and relying on metal studs.
✅ Easy Installation
No need for complex tools—just drill, insert the anchor, and screw in your mount.
✅ Secure & Reliable
Once installed, Elephant Anchors provide a firm hold that won’t loosen over time.
How to Mount a TV on Drywall Without Metal Studs
Follow these simple steps to securely mount your TV on drywall using Elephant Anchors:
Step 1: Mark Your Mounting Holes
Hold your TV mount against the wall and mark where you need to install the screws. Use a level to ensure alignment.
Step 2: Drill the Holes
Use a ½-inch drill bit to create holes at the marked spots. The holes should be deep enough to fit the Elephant Anchors securely.
Step 3: Insert Elephant Anchors
Push the Elephant Anchors into the drilled holes until they sit flush against the drywall.
Step 4: Secure the Screws
Attach the mounting bracket by driving screws into the Elephant Anchors. The anchors will expand behind the drywall, locking everything in place.
Step 5: Mount Your TV
Once the bracket is securely attached, mount your TV and enjoy a worry-free installation!
The Bottom Line
Mounting on drywall without metal studs is not only possible but also completely safe when using Elephant Anchors. Stop second-guessing your mounting projects and use the most trusted drywall anchor on the market to get the job done securely.
