The benefits of tv mounting
Most people who hire us want to have their tv mounted on a wall for aesthetics and convenience. But there are other benefits to placing that new tv on a wall mount. Whatever the reason may be for your particular situation, we have a tv installation strategy that is right for you. Our team of professional installers can install your tv on any wall in any room of the home.
The following are just a few of the benefits to wall mounting your flat screen tv:
Extra floor space
New York apartments only seem to be getting smaller these days. But getting a new tv shouldn’t mean sacrificing floor space when square footage is already at a premium. Placing the tv on your wall eliminates the need for extra furniture and giving you more space for more important essentials like a bed or a couch. We’ll do an excellent job preserving your square footage while mounting your tv in any room of your home.
Protect what’s valuable
The newest flat screen tv models are a lot lighter and more slender than ever before. The manufacturers are building these tv models for mounting on a wall, despite having a set of legs included in the packaging. Sure you can attach the legs and place the tv on a flat surface but this could pose a potential danger in allowing it to get knocked over by mistake due to the center of gravity.
Mounting the tv is a smart option. What may not be such a great idea is trying to mount the tv yourself. A poorly mounted tv is bound to crash to the floor sooner instead of later. You never know who or what may be under the tv when it does and while today’s tv’s are lighter than previous models, they can still badly injure someone and damage the inside of your apartment. Not to mention the damage to the flat screen tv.
Improved viewing angle
When you mount your tv, you have many from which to select. Some of the most popular options are the swivel mount and the tilting mount. Both of these can give you the flexibility of viewing angle you want in your living room or bedroom. This eliminates the need for you to move around the room to get the best viewing angle possible, just tilt, swivel, or swing the tv into the best position for you.

Schedule an appointment today!
It’s easy to do, just access the booking portal on our website and fill out the service request form. Before you do, here are a few things you’ll need to know in order to supply us with the necessary information:
Size of the tv
In order to ensure your tv is mounted properly, we first need to know the size of the tv being installed. You will find this measurement on the box in which you purchased the tv or on the label at the back. If you’re still not sure, grab a tape measure and extend it across the screen, diagonally, from corner to corner.
The size of the tv is important so we know what type of mount is needed to safely and securely attach your tv to the wall.
Choice of tv mount
There are many different mounts on the market with various types of features. Some can swivel, some can tilt, and some don’t do anything at all. Your choice of tv mount will depend on the size of your tv, the size of your room, and other factors that can have an impact on your ability to see the tv clearly and directly.
Before one of our technicians comes to mount your tv, it’s a good idea if you already know which type you plan to use. If you’re still undecided, our technicians are happy to offer you some advice.
Location for installation
Where would you like the tv installed? Knowing which room in the home and whether it’s an indoor or outdoor setting can be very helpful for the technician doing the work. If you are undecided, we can offer some advice to help.
Select the date and time that works for you
The last thing we’ll need from you is the date and time you wish to have one of our professional technicians come to your home and perform the work needed. Pick a day and a time and we’ll book the appointment. Don’t worry if you have to make a change, just let us know in advance and we can move your appointment to a better date and time. We’re here to serve all of your tv mounting and installation needs on your schedule.

How high should I mount my TV?
The ideal height for TV mounting depends mainly on four factors: the size of the TV, how far away you’ll be, your eye level height, and the viewing angle. As a rule, the center of a 42” TV should be mounted about 56 inches from the floor, a 55” TV around 61 inches, a 65” TV around 65 inches, and a 70” TV around 67 inches. But the exact mounting height will vary depending on your eye level, which will vary depending on the height of your seats, couch, or bed.

Most people casually sit between 10 to 15 degrees reclined.
What kind of TV mount should I use?
Full-motion (aka articulating) mounts offer the most versatility. They can extend from the wall, swivel side to side, tilt up and down, and even rotate. However, if you want your TV to be flush with the wall, then you should choose a low-profile (aka flat or fixed) or tilting mount.

7 DANGERS OF DIY TV INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING
- A FAILURE TO ACHOR YOUR TV PROPERLY
The one thing that usually springs to mind when we’re talking about TV installation and mounting gone wrong, is having the TV fall off the wall. One of the reasons that this happens is because you have not anchored your television to the wall or that you have improperly anchored the TV to the wall. You should ALWAYS anchor your TV when wall mounting and when you do anchor your television to the wall, you have to be sure to use anchors that are rated for the weight of your television and designed for use with your mounting surface. - DROPPING YOUR TV
It’s true that televisions are getting lighter these days, but the weight of your TV isn’t the only thing to consider when it comes to being able to properly hold, lift, and install it. The shape and size of your television also play a role in being able to manage your television and this only becomes more challenging when you have to lift and mount that TV to your wall! Even with friends on hand to help you, dropping your TV is a real risk. - ABOUT THAT POWER CORD…
When you tackle your own TV installation and mounting, it’s not uncommon to underestimate the length of your TV’s power cord. This is dangerous for a few reasons. Firstly, utilizing an extension cord is simply not something you should consider if you have other alternatives. Extension cords can be fire hazards and tripping hazards. Secondly, if you stretch your TV power cord to reach a power source because you underestimated the distance between the plug and your television, that stretching can compromise the integrity of the cord and pose a fire hazard or in the very least, cause your TV to malfunction. - ELECTROCUTION
Yes, we know, it sounds dramatic, but electrocution is a real risk when you try TV installation and mounting without experience with electric. Firstly, if you have no idea what you are doing, there’s a chance that you could hit wiring when installing your TV mount. Although this isn’t as likely as improperly wiring your television or improperly running wiring when trying to hide it behind the wall. Our advice is that you never interfere with the electrical system in your home unless you have training as an electrician. - USING THE WRONG CABLES
Did you know that when you install your television wiring behind the wall of your home, that you have to use cables that are rated for in-wall use? When you utilize any cables for in-wall installation they have to be rated for in-wall use to ensure that they do not pose any hazards to human health and safety. - PROBLEMS WITH MOUNTING
When you take on TV installation and mounting yourself, it isn’t uncommon to step back when you’ve finished and to realize that you have mounted your television at the wrong level. The instinct for most people is to tug on that mount or push it upward in hopes that you can fix the issue without having to completely reinstall. Don’t. Tugging, pulling, or pushing your wall-mounted television can compromise the integrity of the solid anchor system you have put in place and that can end up with your TV falling off the wall! - CRIPPLING INJURY
It’s one of the last things that most people think about when considering the dangers of DIY television installation and mounting, but injury is a real risk that can wind up impacting the rest of your life. Whether you injure your back from lifting, twisting, straining, or reaching, or whether you hurt your neck while taking care of construction aspects of the install, you run the risk of an injury that will permanently affect the rest of your life. You may think that this is only a consideration for less physically fit people, but injury can happen to anyone.

What are the advantages of mounting my tv?
There are many reasons why TV wall mounts are becoming more popular for many individuals. Many TVs are now thin and lightweight enough to be easily mounted and come with holes for TV mounting, but installation can require additional effort. Below are a handful of the pros of TV wall mounts.
- Space Saving and Protected from Children and Pets:
One of the most significant benefits of a wall-mounted TV is that because the TV is mounted to the wall, there is no need for a bulky TV stand to take up floor space and the TV is safely out of reach of children and pets. Not only does mounting your TV on the wall with a bracket help protect the screen, but it also makes the room feel more spacious and opens up design possibilities. - Sleek and Modern Finish:
If you are looking for your space to feel sleek and modern, a TV wall mount is the right choice for you. Not only is it an ideal option for smaller spaces, but it is also a stylistic choice that is both practical and aesthetically appealing. - Easily Customizable to Create the Ideal Viewing Experience:
Unlike a TV stand, a TV wall mount allows you to customize where your TV is so that it is perfect for your viewing experience and the orientation of the room and furniture. You can choose a specific height for your TV wall mount and allow for additional tilting or positioning for the best viewing experience. If you’re wondering how to choose a TV wall mount, the features of the wall mount and its customizability will be key to consider.
