Tips before you mount

• Block ranch walls: anchor into solid block face shells with 1/4 inch concrete screws or 3/8 inch sleeve anchors, avoiding mortar joints and hollow cores.
• Aging homes: 1950s homes may have older electrical systems and plaster or thin drywall; have wiring checked before adding in-wall circuits.
• Metal studs: use snap toggles or add blocking.
• Hurricane zone: Miami-Dade County uses high-velocity hurricane zone rules, so take down or secure outdoor TVs before storms.
• Heat and humidity: patio TVs need a rated temperature range and stainless hardware.
• Hidden power: NEC 400.12 forbids concealing a standard cord inside a wall, so use an in-wall rated kit and CL2 or CL3 cable.
