    SOLID that you mention to hand tighten everything so you don't strip things. The small drill left / right is very clever to 'really' find the center of the stud. You might suggest what the common heights of dressers are so that if you have family photos or a 't*ts' old school tube channel audio system that's going to sit on top of it, the dimensions are 36 " to the top of your dresser in your bedroom so 46 " to the bottom edge of your TV from the floor works usually Holmes. Great channel .

    If the studs are off a little to far, you could take a nice piece of 1x material about 24 "s long and screw that firmly into the studs. the TV mount could be positioned in the center of the wall and screwed to that.

  • @jzm6403
    @jzm6403 Před rokem

    Before mounting, I thought ahead and did NOT remove the factory stand until it was mounted to the wall. Absolutely no need to do this with this wall mount until I had the TV where I wanted it. This mount swings out plenty to remove the factory stand afterwards. I mounted my 65" much the same and used the same brand. I used tape on the wall once I found the center and the studs so as not to mark up the wall. I also used this same method of centering the 2x4. I have 2 stud finders. One has lights that tell me when the 2x4 is there (not super accurate but works) and a magnet stud finder. I use a small nail on a vice grip to center the line for the stud once I find it. The only thing I don't like is the typical 42" TV center (from the floor) that seems to be standard. This just isn't high enough for me. I put mine at 48" from the floor and it still wasn't high enough. The rear TV bracket only allows for about 4" of adjustment up and down. When I first mounted it to the recommended center from the floor (but 48" not 42"), it was almost identical height as when it was on the TV stand. I then removed it and raised the rear mount 4" higher. STILL not high enough. For me, a 60" center is where my 65" belongs. I can now lower it 4" for the perfect height of 56" from the floor. With the 5-degree tip feature, this is perfection.

  • @jaqenhghar7302
    @jaqenhghar7302 Před 8 měsíci +4

    Huge fan, ❤ love your videos. I really could use your help as the pro you are. I have been advised against wall mounting our 50” tv in our condo because of “metal studs”. I have been told you can never be sure you have actually penetrated the metal studs or just bent them. This is an old tv, 50” plasma so it’s very heavy and rather thick, compared to newer tv’s. It is probably over 100 lbs. So I am reluctant to try this. We did have it wall mounted in our old house since getting it new in 2007. But in this condo, this is a very small bedroom so having the tv on the wall is the only option. Have you ever run into this problem ? Any body else have any advice ?

  • @WetSpotatBRC
    @WetSpotatBRC Před rokem

    When picking my TV's height off the floor I realized that the recommended "eye level" suggestions from the internet made the view from the kitchen of the bottom of the screen blocked by the "eye level" heads of people sitting on the couch. I stuck an above average height person on the couch, went into the kitchen and sighted just above thier head to the wall where the TV was going to mount, and that's how I picked the bottom of my screen. Moral of the story is to consider all possible viewing locations before installing blocking and/or drilling holes.

    Most important thing said: 19:45 "I have liability insurance". Sure wish I could find someone local to hang my TV in a timely manner. I'd easily pay them a few $100 and let them take the responsibility of dropping the TV or pinching/cracking the OLED panel. But they're not available. I'm nervous as hell.

      not the only one, I got quoted £500 (around $700) which was just insane for just lifting it off my desk and mounting it on the wall directly behind.

    Sir B... You have the best reviews in all, thank you.
    I just pick up my XR77AJ80 from BF, after your reviews and now planning to mount it on wall.
    My TV cabinet is 25 inch height, I want a 8-10 inch distance from the cabinet to the bottom of the TV. That means the center of the TV to the ground is 54~ inch.
    With my sofa is 10~12 ft away from screen, should I be concerned with the optimum viewing angle? As I was told the best height to be 42 inch to center of screen when sitting for best eye leveling.
    Any comments, thanks!

      This advice may be a little late but Big John having the center of the TV to the ground at 54-inches sounds way too high.
      I have the dead center of my 50-inch TV at 41 inches above the ground because when I sit on my leather couch my eyeballs are about 40 inches above the ground.
      I sit 11-feet away from the TV. And when searching online it's recommended I get a 70-inch to 90-inch TV if it's going to be 4k. Time for me to look for a bigger TV.
      Hope this helps.

    I’m debating between buying a 65” and a 77” OLED. Still debating whether to mount on the wall or on a stand. Seating positions in the room vary from about 110” to 140”. Closest seating is about 88”. Would love any opinion or thoughts on which size to get. Based on the formulas I can online find I’m sort of on the line between the two.

    • @BTheInstaller
      @BTheInstaller  Před 2 lety +2

      Most would recommend the 77. If the wall and the space can hold it. Prices are quite low for those. I paid 4k for 65" a90j so it's all relative. I wish I had the 77 a80j in bedroom now. Could also save $1k

    • @jihoffman27
      @jihoffman27 Před 2 lety +2

      @@BTheInstaller Thanks. I'm probably going with the a80j based on your review - I'm more of a tv and sports watcher than a gamer. The wall can definitely hold it and there is plenty of space. It just kinda "feels" big, but that's probably because I'm comparing it to my current 60" plasma. I guess nobody ever said, "gee, I wish I got the smaller TV."

    Hi B,
    You dont seem to tighten the screws holding the bracket into the wall very tight? Is there a reason for this?
    Installed a heavy 60kg 85’’ TV into breezeblock (through a small gap in plaster board) and I am a little concerned I didnt tighten the bolts enough. I was concerned by the potential of threading the bolts so snugged them up with a rachet but did not apply any torque/force.
    Your input would be hugely appreciated

    Before drilling the holes for the wall mount, how to determine if the studs are wood or aluminum? If the studs are aluminum, should you wall mount the TV?

    • @BTheInstaller
      @BTheInstaller  Před rokem

      If wood comes out, it's wood. If the drill doesn't go anywhere or makes a banging noise, it could be metal. Normally about 20% of the time. You can use toggle bolts through metal studs and they work quite well. You need to understand how to use them properly and the weight of tv
