LED Wall Mount TV Installation Concealed Wires NYC

[DMIMAGE]

Thank you, everything went very well. I ended up using 4 Toggler bolts on the center of the studs themselves, then an addtional 4 Togglers on the outer holes. It was quite an easy install thanks to the superb Sanus mount, I think it was heavier than the TV which was a commercial grade 46" Samsung. Before hanging the TV I actually full extended the mount and hung off it (195lbs) a slight creak but held me up. The TV itself is locked to a static viewing position, thanks for the video.

Nice, I'm installing on a metal studded wall Monday and just picked up the Toggler bolts, glad to see them being used here, was worried about the metal studs.. Installing a 46" Samsung on a Sanus XF228-B3 Full motion mount.

@DMIMAGE I would just be cautious of using on full motion mounts. Since the force is not just down, but out, and particular with larger tvs. I would find the center of the stud and use the Snap Toggler Bolts, 1/4". This way you are using both metal and drywall to support outward load.

use wire molding to hide wires , will look alot better than wires dangling everywhere

@landi73 No need when the wires were concealed inside the wall. No wires left outside the wall. The customer was going to place a piece of furniture where the wires exited the wall.

Is it okay to run the TV power cable inside the wall? I've read that there are fire codes against it. I'm looking at installing in my place and do not want to call an electrician to install a new outlet behind the tv.

@BSosnoskie10 No it is not ok to run the power cable through the wall. If you do not want to hardwire the television, consider a different option. Datacom Flat Panel TV Cable Organizer Kit w/ Power Solution. It allows you to run power up and plug in from down below. You are not hiring an electrician. DIY will cost about $60.00, If you hire someone to do it, expect $150-$199

That was a 47" television. I have installed smaller televisions from 19" to 90". Same methods apply, but with the larger the television you will use more anchors obviously.
