TV mounting seems simple until you care about the details.
1) Viewing height
A common target is eye level near the center of the screen when seated. But the “right” height depends on:
- Seating distance
- Screen size
- Whether the TV is above a fireplace
2) Correct anchors and structure
Drywall alone is not enough. Professional installs confirm:
- Stud locations and spacing
- Wall material (wood studs, metal studs, masonry, etc.)
- The right fasteners for the surface
3) Leveling and alignment
A few millimeters matter. We verify:
- Level, plumb, and centering relative to the room
- Tilt/position to reduce glare
4) In-wall cable concealment
If you want a clean look:
- Use an in-wall rated kit and a safe power plan
- Keep signal cables separated from power where appropriate
