Gym Project: TV Mount

The main goal of this project is to hang a TV in the home gym. The first thing I needed to do was to finish off the jacks.

The Tv mount I am using is the Omni Mount. This wi be the third one I have installed in the house. I purchased this from SAM's Club. It is a little pricey but it comes with all the hardware I might need for any TV,  and puts the TV onto an arm that is easy to reposition 

First step is to mark some holes where the bolts will go.

Then attach the mount to the stud using the provided bolt screws.

It is essential to make sure the mount is level before tightening down the bolts.

Now that the arm is attached. The next step is to place a bracket on the TV,

This is the back of the TV.

The bracket attaches to the universal screw holes on the back of the TV.

And then the TV gets hung onto the arm.

You might think we are done. Just rehang the mirrors and the project is finished. Not true! We have a WIFI Blu Ray player to install, surround sound, and speakers, plus various odds and ends within the gym. Check back because there is more work to do!
