After recently purchasing a nice television you are probably anxious to begin the viewing process. However, before you do this you must make sure that you choose the right Plasma TV mount in order to ensure the safety of both your TV and your family. It would be a nightmare for many different reasons if a big TV were to fall off of the wall. Read this article so that you know exactly how to install a Plasma TV mount in a safe and effective manner.
1. Find the precise location where you want to place the TV. It is important that you know the location before you ever buy a Plasma TV mount, because it could potentially dictate which type of mount you purchase.

2. Find the studs. You have to find the studs in the wall in order to install your Plasma TV mount. If you skip this step then you are practically begging for disaster. Finding studs used to take a little trial and error, but with the invention of electronic stud finders it is quite easy! You can buy one of these cheaply, and trust me it is a great investment.
3. Anchor the Plasma TV mount into the wall. The more screws you have the better, as this will provide more support and distribute the weight more evenly, placing less pressure on each point. It is important that you have well more than just a couple of anchor points, as some people suggest.
4. Determine the distance from the back of your TV to any video or gaming equipment on the floor. You are going to want to drill tiny holes so you can route the wires through the wall. As a general rule you want to buy cables that are slightly longer than what you think you need, as there may be unforeseen obstacles in the wall that you will not be aware of when mounting your Plasma TV.
5. Hide the wires. You can use the "outside the wall" system by finding wires that are color coded to the wall, however most people prefer to hide the wires inside the wall. You want to make sure however that you do not place the main power cord into the wall. For this cord you need an electrician to create a recessed plug behind your TV.

Black Friday Cheetah Mounts AS3B 3 Component Shelf Wall Mount Bracket for LCD TVs Overview
The AS3B is a tri-shelf cable management system. It can be used with or without a Plasma/LCD mount. This unit is designed to fit under your display and provide an on wall solution for other components such as cable boxes, DVD players, game consoles, and stereo components. There are three 2.25-Inch holes on the aluminum plate that allow you to cleanly run your cables up to your TV or down to another component, as well as out the bottom to an outlet. After reviewing our competition we realized that most shelving units need to be mounted directly into a wall stud. In most cases the wall stud is placed to the right or to the left of the display, which is not where most people prefer to have their shelves mounted. This is still the most secure option however, after significant research we’ve fount that using the correct toggle bolts can allow you to mount your shelving unit wherever you see fit. With the combination of four of these toggle bolts the shelving unit is able to hold well over 70LBS safely. Each individual toggle bolt provides 75LBS of support. Please not that a good toggle bolt is still only as good as the quality of the drywall it is mounted into. If you have water damage or .25-Inch drywall please add a support for your shelving unit.SAVE NOW on Black Friday offers below!
