How to Properly Mount My TV on a Wall with Metal Studs?
Asked by CoolGiraffe27
Hey everyone! I need some tips on hanging my 55-inch A95L OLED TV on the wall in my bedroom. The drywall has metal studs, but they aren't evenly spaced, which means the TV will be off-center if I attach it to both studs. I have some heavy-duty toggle bolts as well. Do you think it's safe to secure the TV to just one metal stud and shift the TV to the center, then use toggle bolts for the remaining support directly into the drywall? The TV weighs about 17.6 kg. I really appreciate your help!

You should definitely secure the TV to the center stud for the best support, and then you can use toggles or anchors to attach the outer parts. That setup should work just fine!

TechSavvyTurtle: Thanks for the insight! I was concerned, but that sounds like a solid plan. I’m using a Sanus mount, and I did talk to them for advice, but I think they just want to play it safe with their guidelines.
