Don't risk your OLED on thin metal studs. We specialize in secure, high-rise, and commercial-grade installations that standard handymen won't touch. Buildings taller than 5 floors almost always have metal studs for fire safety. We handle metal stud mounting at no extra charge, though we recommend fixed or tilting mounts for TVs over 65 inches.

Standard mounting hardware fails on metal studs. Here's what makes our installation different.
Standard Lag Bolts
3.5" wood studs provide plenty of depth for lag bolts to grip securely. This is the traditional method.
Solid Wood Connection
Bolts bite directly into solid wood, creating a strong, reliable hold for TVs of any size.
Common in Homes
Most single-family homes and older buildings have wood studs—the standard for residential construction.

Metal studs require specialized knowledge and hardware. Here's what typically goes wrong with DIY installations—and why professional service is worth every penny.
Using standard drywall anchors or wood screws on metal studs. These pull through within weeks, causing your TV to fall.
Risk: TV falls, $2,000+ in damage
Consumer stud finders fail on metal studs. Drilling random holes damages walls and wastes hours of frustration.
Risk: 10+ holes, drywall repair needed
Metal studs are hollow and thin. Over-tightening crushes the stud, stripping threads and destroying load capacity.
Risk: Mount becomes unstable over time
Without laser levels and experience, TVs end up tilted. Once mounted, re-leveling requires new holes and patches.
Risk: Permanent eyesore, costly redo
Drilling into walls without checking for electrical wires. Metal conducts electricity—one wrong hole can be deadly.
Risk: Electrical shock, fire hazard
"It's only 50 lbs" ignores torque and leverage. A 55" TV pulls 200+ lbs of force when extended on a full-motion mount.
Risk: Catastrophic mount failure
