What can I mount on a stud wall?
I've got a stud/partition wall in my study, and I'd love to mount an LCD telly on it (up to 28" max). Is there any TV/mount which is lightweight enough to survive on a stud wall? I'd like an analog tuner, to receive the analog Sky signal which I pump around the house.
TIA for any tips. |

Re: What can I mount on a stud wall?
I've just bought a samsung Le26R74 for my bedroom which has stud plasterboard walls. I havent yet mounted it but according to various people I've spoken to in electrical stores (and my dad!), it should be no problem.
check out these threads: Mounting On Plasterboard - need help i am a girl in need of help, mounting 32" technosonic onto plasteboard??? Those should help you. |

Re: What can I mount on a stud wall?
Hi
I figure in one of the recommended posts. Plasterboard is stronger than people think as long as you use the correct fixings AND FIX THEM CORRECTLY!! However I would not recommend an arm type swivelling bracket..........a bit too much stress. A simple straight slot in should be fine. But lets be honest not everyone is cut out for fixing TVs on walls. If a bit of wallpaper falls off that you havent pasted properly.....who really cares. Your new flat panel falls off the wall .............oh F##K Steve |
