Our TV mounting experts often get asked this question – Can a TV be too heavy to mount on a wall –

The general answer is NO. There are brackets for all TV sizes and weight.

However, the wall that you are planning on mounting your TV on may not be strong enough to hold it. Which is why it is best you have an expert assess your wall and complete the job professionally. For example, your TV mount must be installed across a minimum of 2 studs, so consider what the internal structure of the wall you are mounting on is like. Is your internal wall structure a Hebel or Steel structure, or another type of wall structure? Wall Mounting a TV can go horribly wrong in inexperienced hands, resulting in damage to walls, the new TV, electrical cables and often people!

There are so many different types of brackets from flush wall mount to swivel to ceiling mounted, so it’s best to speak with your local expert first for optimum placement and the best bracket to suit your needs. There a a few factors to consider when choosing your wall mount. It must have the correct weighting and pattern for your TV type. Also, the quality of the mount you chose is key: the cheaper the bracket, the more likely it is to fail under the weight. You want to ensure you have a good quality bracket and good warranty as well. Good warranty is also applicable to your TV as you want to ensure that you are covered in case something fails with the TV mounting.

Steve from Jim’s Antennas in Heathmont mounted a 75” TV for a customer who had just moved into a new home. He concealed the Samsung one connect cable in the cavity, tuned the TV and made sure that the Wi-Fi was connected.

For this job Steve supplied and installed a Selby Bracket – these high quality brackets provide security and durability, and give your flat screen or monitor the showcase it deserves. Some mounts have tilting abililties, such as swivel mounts, to provide multiple viewing angles. Our team can help you decide which bracket will be the best for your TV and wall.
