Mounting Large TVs: Why Bigger Screens Need Expert Handling.
Big screens mean big entertainment, and there’s nothing quite like watching your favourite shows or sports on a 75-inch (or larger) TV. However, mounting such a large and heavy screen comes with unique challenges that require expert handling. At Jim’s Antennas, we specialise in professionally mounting large TVs, ensuring they’re secure, perfectly positioned, and ready for you to enjoy.
The Challenges of Mounting Large TVs
When it comes to oversized TVs, mounting isn’t as simple as it might seem. Here are some key challenges you’ll face:
Weight and Size
Large TVs can weigh upwards of 30kg, making them difficult to lift, position, and secure. A standard wall mount may not be able to support the weight, and attempting the job without proper tools can lead to damage or injury.
Wall Strength
The type of wall you’re mounting on is critical. Plasterboard, brick, or concrete all require different techniques and hardware to ensure your TV is securely fastened. A poorly mounted TV can come crashing down, causing damage to both your wall and your expensive screen.
Bracket Compatibility
Not all brackets are created equal. For larger TVs, you need a heavy-duty bracket that can handle the screen’s weight and size. Adjustable brackets are also essential for achieving the perfect viewing angle, but selecting the wrong one can lead to instability.
Proper Positioning
Getting the height and angle right for a big screen is vital for comfortable viewing. Too high, and you’ll strain your neck; too low, and the experience is subpar. Positioning is even trickier when mounting over fireplaces or in rooms with multiple viewing spots.
Cable Management
Large TVs often come with multiple connections, from HDMI to soundbar cables. Without proper cable management, your setup can look cluttered and untidy, detracting from the sleek look of your mounted screen.
