There are many possible VESA sizes for your TV or monitor. Most TV mounts are compatible with multiple VESA sizes, but it is always important to check the VESA size of your TV carefully. You can find the VESA size of your TV in the manual. If you cannot find this or simply do not know what a VESA size is, we recommend you visit the 'what is your VESA size?' page on our website.
It is important to always check that the VESA size of your TV matches the VESA size of the TV mount. The VESA sizes that each TV mount supports are listed separately under the specifications for each mount.
Possible VESA sizes:
- VESA 50 (50x50mm)
- VESA 75 (75x75mm)
- VESA 100 (100x100mm)
- VESA 200 (200x200mm)
- VESA 200x100 (200x100mm)
- VESA 200x300 (200x300mm)
- VESA 200x400 (200x400mm)
- VESA 300x400 (300x400mm)
- VESA 400 (400x400mm)
- VESA 400x600 (400x600mm)
- VESA 400x800 (400x800mm)
- VESA 600 (600x600mm)
Mounting a TV bracket
Most TV mounts come with screws that can be used to attach the mounting plate to your TV. However, these are standard screws that are usually sufficient. Occasionally, no suitable screws are included. You can order these separately on our website or visit a hardware store to get the necessary screws. You can determine which screw you need by measuring the diameter of the screw hole and the depth of the hole using a long, thin object (e.g., a skewer). The most common non-standard screw size is the M8; you can find more information about this on this page.
The screws and wall plugs you need to attach the mounting plate to the wall are usually not included, as the type of fixing depends on the wall type. We recommend always consulting a specialist at the hardware store. This ensures that the mounting materials used can support the weight of the TV mount and TV.
When mounting, always consider the following:
- Check the wall type and the total weight of the TV and TV mount beforehand. (Mounting on drywall is not recommended unless the TV mount can be attached to a support beam or similar)
- Consult a specialist at the hardware store about the screws and plugs to use
- Use a spirit level to ensure the TV mount is mounted straight on the wall.
- Check that there are no electrical or water pipes behind the chosen location.
- Mark the holes on the wall or ceiling and choose a suitable drill for the wall type.
- Drill the holes carefully and steadily
- Then mount the mounting plate of the TV bracket according to the steps in the installation manual.
NOTE: Some TV mounts have a built-in spirit level. This is of course to make mounting easier for you, but we always advise checking the accuracy of the spirit level and not relying on it blindly. A spirit level can lose its accuracy from just one knock, which can happen during transport. You can check its accuracy by reading the spirit level horizontally. Then hold it vertically; if it shows the same result, the spirit level is still accurate.
