Before you start, it’s essential to verify that your TV or monitor is VESA-compatible. The VESA standard defines the spacing between the mounting holes on the back of your screen, typically represented by two numbers (e.g., 200×200 or 400×400), which indicate the horizontal and vertical distances (in millimeters) between the holes.

Steps to Determine VESA Compatibility:

1. Check your manual or product specifications for the VESA size.
2. Measure the distances between the mounting holes on the back of your screen if needed.
3. Select a wall mount that matches your screen’s VESA size to ensure a stable fit

Types of Wall Mounts

Choose the right VESA wall mount type to meet your room’s needs:

• Fixed Wall Mounts: Great for a secure, stationary setup.
• Tilting Wall Mounts: Offers minor vertical adjustments for better viewing angles.
• Swiveling Wall Mounts: Offers horizontal adjustments for better viewing angles.
• Full-Motion/Articulating Wall Mounts: Provides full adjustability, allowing you to tilt, swivel, and extend the screen.

VESA Wall Mount Installation Guide: Step-by-Step

Tools and Materials Needed

• Power drill
• Level
• Screwdriver
• Pencil for marking
• Wall anchors (for drywall installations)
• Wall mount kit with screws

Step 1: Choose the Mounting Location

Decide on a location that provides a comfortable viewing angle. Avoid mounting in direct sunlight to reduce glare.

Step 2: Measure and Mark Drill Holes

Using the wall mount’s template (or the wall plate itself), mark the spots where screws will go. Confirm that the measurements align with your screen’s VESA pattern.

Step 3: Drill Holes and Insert Wall Anchors

For drywall, use wall anchors to reinforce the mount. Drill holes slightly smaller than the wall anchors and insert them. For concrete or wood walls, drill directly into the wall as directed in your mounting kit instructions.

Step 4: Attach the Wall Plate

Secure the wall plate to the wall by driving screws into the wall anchors or directly into the wall. Use a level to ensure the plate is straight.

Step 5: Attach Mounting Brackets to Your Screen

Align the brackets from the wall mount kit with the VESA holes on the back of your screen. Attach the brackets using the provided screws, ensuring they’re tightly fastened.

Step 6: Mount the Screen

With assistance if needed, lift the screen and align the brackets with the wall plate. Carefully secure the screen to the mount according to the manufacturer’s instructions, making sure it’s properly locked in place.

Step 7: Check Stability and Make Adjustments

After mounting, test stability by gently moving the screen. Make any necessary angle or tilt adjustments.
