Tips before you mount

• Tall walls: great rooms with 10 or 12 foot ceilings need a mount placed at eye level, not at the top of the wall, and blocking checked before drilling.
• Block and frame mixes: probe or use a stud finder to learn whether a wall is block or frame before choosing anchors.
• Outdoor entertaining: covered patio TVs need weather-rated units and stainless hardware; tree cover reduces sun but increases humidity and pollen.
• Outdoor cable runs: on larger lots, bury low-voltage and power lines for backyard TVs in conduit at code depth and locate underground utilities first.
• Storm prep: secure or bring in outdoor TVs before hurricanes.
• Hidden power: NEC 400.12 forbids concealing a standard cord, so use an in-wall rated kit and CL2 or CL3 cable.
