Tips before you mount

• Eichler tracts: radiant heating pipes lie in the slab, so no drilling into floors; mount to studs or posts within the wall plane.
• Eichler interior walls are often panel or thin partition; confirm what is behind the wall and use studs or blocking before lagging.
• Seismic: anchor the mount into studs or masonry, not drywall, and use a safety strap for TVs on stands or media consoles.
• Apartments and condos: ask management or the HOA; use snap toggles for metal studs.
• Outdoor TVs under eaves and patios: stainless hardware and shade.
• Plan AV in remodels: add conduit or blocking when walls are open.
• For in-wall cable use an in-wall power kit and CL2/CL3 cable.
