What to Do If Your TV Mount Feels Loose or Unstable?

Here’s what to do if your TV mount doesn’t feel as solid as it should — and how CondoMounts can help make it rock-solid again.

Mounting your TV on the wall or pillar is a game-changer — it saves space, looks sleek, and enhances your viewing experience. But what happens when that mount starts to feel a little… off? Whether it’s a slight wobble, a visible tilt, or the dreaded sag, a loose or unstable TV mount is something that should never be ignored.

1. Inspect the Mount and Wall Surface

The first thing to do is to check the wall or surface your TV is mounted to. If you're using a mount on drywall, metal studs, or even brick, the type of anchors and bolts you use matters a lot.

Common issues include:

• Wall anchors pulling out of drywall

• Loose screws in metal studs

• Mount not flush against uneven brick or concrete

If you notice any of these, pause and don’t ignore it. The stability of your mount depends entirely on how it’s secured to the surface.

2. Check Your Hardware

Over time, bolts and screws can loosen due to vibrations or movement. Gently tighten all the screws on the mount — but don’t overtighten, especially if you're dealing with drywall or plaster.

If you used standard drywall plugs and your mount feels wobbly, it might be time to upgrade to stronger anchors. For example, CondoMounts’ metal stud kits with Elephant Anchors offer unmatched grip for both drywall and metal stud installations, keeping your TV firmly in place.

3. Evaluate the Mount Type and TV Size

Did you mount a 75” TV on a bracket designed for a 55”? If your mount isn’t rated for your TV’s weight and size, instability is inevitable. Always match the mount to your TV's VESA pattern, weight, and dimensions.

CondoMounts offers a variety of mounts — including Advance Tilt, Full Motion, and No-Drill Pillar Mounts — specifically designed to handle TVs up to 200 lbs with maximum security.

4. Switch to a Better Mounting Solution

If your current mount just doesn’t cut it — don’t risk it. Switching to a trusted, heavy-duty mount like CondoMounts Advance Tilt or our Pillar Mount Series can solve your stability issues for good.

These mounts are built with precision engineering and come with everything you need for a hassle-free, rock-solid install, including premium Elephant Anchors, razor-sharp titanium drill bits, and easy-to-follow instructions.
