How does this screw to the tv? Do we drill holes?

Hey! I bought it and you dont have to male any holes to the tv. You use the holes that are originally used for mounting the tv to the wall.

All flat screen TVs come with pre-drilled holes in the back. You attach the cables using the top set of holes (as shown in the picture).

There should be holes on the back of your tv pre drilled from the manufacturer of the tv

Use the exhisting screw holes for wall mount to install. Then attach to wall or tv stand to prevent toppling. Took 5 mins to install.

Most (if not all) flat-panel TVs have holes in the back for wall mounting. The strap is screwed into the TV on those holes. It came with all the needed hardware for my TV.

Don't drill holes in the TV! All TV's have holes on their back. You will have to screw this strap on the holes in the back of your TV

If you have "VESA" mounting pattern ( typically 4 hole square pattern on the back of your TV ), this strap setup will screw into your TV. Here's a link to view- http://www.samsung.com/us/support/faq/FAQ00022527/22695/Y/.As far as drilling holes into the TV, NEVER into your TV ever.

I believe they are just plastic holes. The screws are self threading and cut threads as you insert them. There are also plastic caps, but the problems if you used the caps, they and screw heads project out further than the feet on the base, so it rocks. If you don't use the caps (which I didn't) then screws won't seat and the TV rocks a little on the base.

My tv stand came with a variety of screws to attach the tv to the stand, as not all tvs have the same screw holes in the back, and additional wall mounting hardware.

The TV mount adheres to a "mounting center standard" and has at least 3 symmetrica;l hole mounting arrangements. I do not know the standard identity but check it on-line and then check the TV for a match. I did find, as others did,the screws provided were not the right size for my TV. Hope this helps.

There are several spots you can put the bracket in. There are outer and inner holes. I believe we used the outer holes. We just matched it up. On the bracket you should have several different choices as each TV is made differently. Hope this helped you. We enjoy the TV on it mount in our motor home. Let us know if you have any other questions.

There are 4 screw holes (no screws, just one screw for the stand), but the viewing angle is not good on this TV. Mine was perhaps 20 inches above my bed on a shelf and it was too dark too watch (not totally, but too dark to truly enjoy). And it's too light from the top angle, so you would need to be level to watch a good picture. If you tilt the TV by placing something under the back of the stand then the screen will be ok. This is my first flat screen, so maybe all new flat TV screens have this issue. So much for improved technology. The TV also has a plastic strap thing, although I have no idea how to use it.

There are no holes for this purpose but it is possible though you may interfere with the wires that you run through the steel frame. Depending on how many cables you plan to run it may get a bit cramped when you drill a hole through it and then try to thread an HDMI cable through afterwards. Maybe you can attach an anchor to the wall and strap the mount to it using multiple heavy duty nylon ties. You may be better off buying a wall mount bracket if you're going to do any drilling.

You can slide the metal bar mounting to screw in the tv where you need to If I remember correctly

Rail mounts screw into back of TV. They provide screws that seem to accommodate most tv models. Then the tv slides on a rail on the stand. It is great! I could slide the tv slightly off center to fit in a corner next to a fireplace. I was very pleased at the final product. The instructions were excellent I thought too.

Did you end up finding a fix - I know how to fix it,but can't seem to find the item needed to mount to the TV?

Sorry, ours is not a wall TV. No screws needed. But we love the TV and would buy another if needed.

if you notice in the picture on the top horizontal bar end bracket there is a hole. there is a tool that comes with the mount that fits this hole and rotates the bar ( the bar has a flat side to allow it to fit into the opening on the bracket that attaches to the TV) you insert the tool rotate the bar to lock the mount to the bracket and rotate the bar in the opposite direction to allow you to remove the TV from the mount. you can also slide the mount on the brackets that are anchored to the wall studs left or right to get the TV aligned properly.

Yes. It comes with multiple sizes of mounting screws. You should not have a problem. I've bought multiple of this mount and haven't had a problem attaching to a TV yet.

There are just 4 screws that hold the mount to the TV. Remove those 4 screws and the TV is released. For a safer option, remove the bolt holding the mount to the TV and that is also easily removed. Good luck.

There is no room between the wall and TV to use a drill to tighten it once you have the TV. To mount the mount to the wall yes you will need a drill. After that find someone with small hands to tighten the screws to prevent the TV from falling off the mount.

Most of the newer TVs have standard mounting "holes" areleady, usually the four mentioned. The brackets may be flipped from top to bottom by reversing the left and right sides once turned in proper direction. secure the top side first, secure by loose enough to move. Once you have done this, the bottom may be "pulled" or "slid out" to fit the hole brackets. I had trouble figuring this out at first, but once you have it in the correct placement, it is actually very easy.

It takes a the wrench that is supplied, although you can tighten the fastener enough that makes it "stiff" we're you can adjust the TV where you want it and it will stay. Hope that helps.
