How to choose the right TV mount

Four checks cover most TVs: mount type, VESA pattern, weight and wall type. Every product page lists the exact numbers for that mount.

1. Mount type

Type	What it does	Screen sizes	Rated up to
Fixed	Holds the TV flat, closest to the wall	13" to 140"	275 lb
Tilting	Angles the screen down to cut glare	13" to 140"	275 lb
Full motion	Extends, swivels and tilts	19" to 140"	275 lb
Ceiling	Hangs the TV from the ceiling	19" to 98"	220 lb (single screen)
Corner	Extending arms angle the TV out of a corner	19" to 100"	220 lb
Pull down fireplace	Lowers the TV from above a mantel	40" to 85"	110 lb
No stud	Installs on drywall without studs	23" to 85"	110 lb on drywall
Outdoor	Weatherproof and anti-rust mounts	13" to 110"	275 lb

2. VESA pattern

VESA is the spacing of the mounting holes on the back of the TV, in millimeters, width by height, for example 400x400. The mount has to list your TV's pattern. Our TV mounts cover patterns from 50x50 up to 1200x900. Read more in what is a VESA mount.

3. Weight

Use the weight of the TV without its stand, from the TV's spec sheet, and pick a mount rated above it. Some mounts also have a minimum weight, because their arm needs enough load to hold position. The MI-384 pull down mount, for example, needs a TV of at least 17.6 lb.

4. Wall type

Wall mounts anchor into wood studs or into solid concrete or brick. Each product page lists the stud spacing and wall surfaces that mount is rated for. If there is no stud where the TV needs to go, our no stud mounts install on drywall with nails: MI-378 is rated 77 lb on drywall and MI-379 is rated 110 lb.

Who can mount my TV?

Most people mount a TV themselves with a drill, a stud finder and a second person for the lift. Our guide to how to mount a TV on the wall covers each step. If you hire a pro, see our guide to TV mounting service costs.

Is a 65 inch TV too heavy to mount?

Most 65-inch TVs weigh between 50 and 100 lbs. Mount-It! TV wall mounts support up to 275 lbs, so a 65-inch TV is well within range for most mounts. Always verify your TV's actual weight — check the spec sheet, not estimates — and choose a mount rated above that weight with a safety buffer.

How much does it cost to mount a TV?

Fixed mounts cost the least. Full motion, heavy duty and motorized mounts cost more, and multi-screen ceiling mounts cost the most. Current prices are on each product page. Every Mount-It! TV mount ships with its mounting hardware, and shipping is free within the contiguous US. Hiring an installer is a separate cost.

Where can I buy Mount-It! TV mounts?

Buy direct at mount-it.com. Shipping, warranty and return terms for each mount are shown on its product page.

Is it better to mount a TV or use a stand?

Wall mounting frees up floor space, keeps the TV at the correct viewing height, and eliminates tipping risk — important in homes with children or pets. TV stands are easier to reposition and require no wall work. For any permanent room setup, wall mounting is the better long-term solution. For renters or frequently rearranged rooms, a stand may be more practical.

Can drywall hold a 50 inch TV?

Drywall alone cannot safely support a TV mount. You must anchor into the wood studs behind the drywall — most homes have studs at 16-inch or 24-inch spacing. A 50-inch TV typically weighs 30–50 lbs, which is well within the capacity of a properly stud-anchored mount. If you have metal studs or no accessible studs, use a mount specifically rated for toggle bolt or drywall anchor installation.
