Step-by-Step Guide to Installing the TVAT8164 on Drywall
1. Locate the Metal Studs
The first step is to find the metal studs in your drywall. Use a stud finder to locate the studs—this is crucial as the metal studs will provide the stability needed to hold the weight of your TV.
2. Mark Your Mounting Points
Once you’ve located the studs, mark the points where you’ll be attaching the TV mount. Ensure these marks align with the holes on the TVAT8164 mount and that they are level for a straight installation.
3. Drill the Pilot Holes
Use a drill to create pilot holes in the marked spots. If you’re attaching to metal studs, you’ll want to use a titanium drill bit for precision. The TVAT8164 comes with a Razor Sharp Titanium Drill Bit, making this step a breeze.
4. Insert Elephant Anchors
For added stability, insert Elephant Anchors into the pilot holes. These anchors are designed to handle the heavy load of TVs, ensuring that even on drywall, your TV stays securely mounted.
5. Attach the TV Mount
With the anchors in place, it’s time to attach the TV mount. Align the mount with the drilled holes and secure it with the provided screws. Be sure to tighten everything properly to ensure stability.
6. Hang the TV
Finally, attach the brackets to the back of your TV, and hang it onto the mounted plate. The TVAT8164 offers a 4D design, allowing for easy cable access behind your TV, so you can easily connect your devices and tidy up the wires afterward.
Enjoy a Seamless Viewing Experience
Once installed, you’ll be able to tilt, swivel, and adjust your TV for the perfect viewing angle. Whether you’re watching your favorite movie or playing games, the Condomounts TVAT8164 ensures a flawless experience.
With its robust build, advanced tilt functionality, and easy DIY installation, this mount is a top-tier choice for mounting TVs on drywall and metal studs.
