Installation Details
When you're mounting an 86-inch TV, there's no room for error. This Plymouth, Minnesota homeowner went big, and we made sure their massive screen was mounted securely on drywall using a heavy-duty tilt mounting bracket designed for large-format displays.
An 86-inch TV is seriously heavy, so stud placement is critical. We located the studs, confirmed their positions, and used lag bolts on both sides of the bracket to distribute the weight evenly. The tilt bracket gives the homeowner the ability to angle the screen downward slightly, which is especially helpful with a TV this size since it often sits higher on the wall.
Mounting Large TVs
TVs in the 85-inch-plus range require brackets rated for the weight — typically 100 pounds or more. We always verify that the bracket's weight rating exceeds the TV's actual weight by a healthy margin. For drywall installations, hitting studs is non-negotiable at this size. Every lag bolt needs to be seated firmly into solid wood framing.
