Well done! Unfortunately the biggest hassle was attaching the wings on the bracket that attached directly to the tv. I have a 55” Samsung which is the largest tv for this mount and I had to use 2 of the thick spacers along with two of the small spacers for each screw but it worked and with my Son’s help we got it up on the wall, thanks again for your video.
That's an easy job to put in a socket behind the TV cut in a double fastafix box in the plasterboard straight above your socket then fish a cable down the wall from fastafix to socket
A bit confused for how to know if I am drilling right areas for the mount. So far this has been the best most helpful video but I'm a bit confused on the drilling.
So my stud finder didn't quite work, but at 11:30 in the video I end up drilling a bunch of small holes in the wall moving side-ways until I hit wood (marking where I first hit wood). Then I kept going until there wasn't wood anymore (and marking there too). You want your screws to go in the middle of those two marks. Does that make sense? Don't hesitate to ask more questions, I'm happy to try to help.
My leveling bolt is tightened all the way but the tv still goes off level every time I move it in and out of the wall. I can see the tv swiveling at that point where the leveling bolt is. Any ideas for how to fix that?
How often do you move your TV? Maybe try lock tight? Honestly there's a lot of leverage on the ends of your TV to that one bolt so it's not likely you'll be able to get it more secure. You'll just have to re-level every time you move the TV.
Just curious to know, what screws am I using to screw the mount to my tv? It fits perfectly without the arms, but the screws don’t fit down. Do I use the spacers? If so do they go on to the screw before I drill them down?
It's been so long, I don't remember exactly. You only install spacers so that the back is flat incase the back of your TV is curved or has uneven steps in it.
@SanjaySingh-xb3mg yes, however you should probably use anchors as if you were hanging them on just sheetrock. It'll end up being stronger than sheetrock, but if you just use screws they are more likely to pull out
Could u please tell or show me how close it turns to 90°? I ordered a wall mount a few months ago and mine doesn’t turn enough to reach my bed. So I just bought this in hopes that it will turn enough. Thanks man.
None of these screws that came with my Mount. Fit in the back of tv. The largest long ones do… but too long. The short ones of largest aren’t long enough. And the washers won’t fit if they are the larger screws
Get the Mount & TV for yourself

I'm glad you got it up. I hope the video was helpful. Getting help to mount it is the best way to go for sure. Thanks for watching
Thanks for the tip! (using extra spacers) bc I am my husband are about to tackle this with the same TV.
same here lol i had to figure the screw/spacer thing out
Thank you ! Hubby & I did it together with your help. When we opened the box, we had our doubts
That's awesome I'm happy for you guys I'm really glad that my video helped
Thank you for the tutorial! It was super helpful. I plan on setting mine up tomorrow with the help of my husband!
Awesome! I actually used my video to remember how to do it when I moved and put it up in my new house
Thanks Grant!!!! Pure Legend you are !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@arnoldasmarkvaldas8 hey, thanks!

If it wasn't an apartment, I totally would have!
Thanks for the guidance. Really helpful 👌
@@dawnieb72 I'm so glad my video was helpful!
Great job and video discription
@@snagbrock thank you
Do you need a stud finder for mounting on a solid brick wall, thanks for your help take care.
No, you can use the plastic anchors into the brick wall
Very helpful. Most definitely need 2 people.
Yeah, it was a little sketchy trying to do it myself 😅
Thanks for the instructions
Glad I could help!

@Susan McAvoy I think I had to go to the hardware store to get screws that were long enough for the back of my screen.
Can it be hung on steel studs?
@SanjaySingh-xb3mg yes, however you should probably use anchors as if you were hanging them on just sheetrock. It'll end up being stronger than sheetrock, but if you just use screws they are more likely to pull out
Thank you I needed this
I'm glad it helped!
Is it possible to have it pushed in at top so it's only 3 inches off wall at both bottom and top?
Yes, you can tilt it up or down, or just have it parallel with the wall
can you rotate it 90 degrees because i want to use it but i want to be able to have it fully rotated
So the mount doesn't swivel? But you can just mount it sideways.
what size drill bit and screw is good enough? my screws wont go all the way through the stud in the wall
Make sure you watch the whole video: 9:54
I just used the ones that came with it. I think it took a 13/32 inch drive socket.
What’s a 5 30 second drill bit?
It's an drill bit that is 5/32nds of an inch thick
Hey buddy do you know if it comes with screws to attach the mount base to the TV? I do not have mine smh
It depends on your TV. There were extra screws, but every TV uses different ones. The ones it has should work? But depending on your TV it might not.
Love the simple step by step and great honest review. T Y
I'm glad you appreciated it. That's what I aim for. Thanks for watching!
Could u please tell or show me how close it turns to 90°? I ordered a wall mount a few months ago and mine doesn’t turn enough to reach my bed. So I just bought this in hopes that it will turn enough. Thanks man.
How big is your tv?
@@GrantButler 55
@@Motorman3538 that screen is too big to turn totally 90°
Great review and we share the same last name my friend
It's a pretty good last name isn't it.
Do people ask you if there's 2 t's in it too? 😅
@@GrantButler yes 🤣🤣

The spacers in pack B or C should be able to combine to make it so you can use those screws.
Can you tell me what knife that is you used to open the package?
Spyderco Tenacious

I can't find it in amazon
Thanks for the heads up. The link changed
amzn.to/3Pj6DdM
Is not that one
My mount isn't tilting for some reason... it will swivel, just no tilting motion
Did you loosen the screws on the side where it tilts?
@@GrantButler yeah I just did that right after I sent the comment. Reading the FAQ booklet should have been my 1st move 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
not really helpful since you didn't need the arms, that is the tricky part.
@Ruthlipsitz1 I'm sorry I thought I covered it pretty well even though I didn't use them.
