How to Plan Your TV Wall Mount Installation
Careful planning is the foundation of a safe, tidy, and long-lasting TV wall mounting job.
Our team at H.Irwin Electrical has handled installations across nearly every home and commercial setting in Adelaide, so we know what makes a setup work both practically and within all local regulations.
Assessing Wall Type & Support
Before any drilling, we start by checking your wall’s construction. Adelaide properties range from plasterboard to solid brick and sometimes even timber paneling. Each wall type requires its own fixing method for TV wall mounting.
For plasterboard, we always secure mounts to the timber or metal studs for genuine safety. Masonry needs reliable plugs and hardware suited to the surface.
If your preferred mounting position doesn’t line up with existing studs, we can install additional support for peace of mind.
Choosing the Right Wall Mount
Not all brackets suit every wall or setup. We determine what makes sense, fixed, tilting, or fully adjustable, based on your room layout and viewing preference.
Our electricians check that the bracket not only holds your TV’s size and weight, but is also a match for your wall’s structure.
We double-check all hardware, making sure you have the right fasteners for both your wall and the TV, so nothing is left to chance.
Planning Cable Management
Mounting height makes a big difference to viewing comfort. We aim to position the TV so the centre is just above seated eye level.
We may also adjust for your space, lighting, and any built-in furniture.
Before marking anything out, we talk through options for concealing cables, either inside the wall, using covers, or planning new power and AV points.
As a licensed Adelaide electrician, we handle any electrical work legally and safely, meeting all wiring rules.
Checking Hazards and Safety
Hidden wires or pipes can spoil an otherwise solid TV wall mounting job.
We scan each section of the wall, especially in older homes or near kitchens and bathrooms, to avoid costly surprises.
Once we’re sure it’s clear, we secure the mount and check everything is level. Then, we lift the TV into place with care and test for stability before finishing cables and final connections.

Types of TV Wall Mounts We Install
Understanding which TV wall mount best suits your room comes down to both the space itself and how you’ll use the TV. At H.Irwin Electrical, our team looks at more than just how the setup will look; we also make sure it’s safe and fits your actual needs.
Fixed TV Wall Mounts
Fixed mounts are a solid choice if you want your TV close to the wall with no adjustment.
They’re best for rooms where you watch TV from a single spot, as they don’t allow for tilting or swivelling.
We often recommend them for clean lines in bedrooms or living rooms where glare isn’t an issue.
Tilting TV Mounts
Tilting mounts let you angle your TV vertically, ideal where the TV sits a bit higher on the wall, like above a fireplace.
This adjustment helps cut down glare from Adelaide’s natural light and makes long viewing sessions more comfortable.
Our licensed electricians make sure the tilt functions smoothly and that every bracket fits both your TV and your wall type.
Full-Motion Mounts
Full-motion (or articulating) mounts are for setups needing lots of movement. They’re useful in open-plan rooms or if you want to angle your TV for different seating areas.
These mounts need extra attention, as the moving arms put more force on the wall.
We always secure them to studs or solid brick, and double-check the mount’s rating against your TV’s size and weight for safety.
TV Compatibility
No matter which type you pick, matching the mount to both your wall and TV is key, especially when coordinating with other fittings like TV antenna installation to ensure a clean, functional setup.
Adelaide homes often feature brick or stud walls, each needing a different mounting approach and fasteners.
We use electronic stud finders and proven hardware for a reliable, neat install, and can handle any challenges unique to local walls.

Common TV Mounting Problems We Fix
Mounting a TV on the wall seems straightforward, but in practice, plenty can go wrong if any step is skipped or rushed.
Drawing from years of hands-on electrical installations in Adelaide homes and businesses, we’ve seen how small oversights can result in safety issues, damage, or an untidy finish.
Stud Location and Errors
Many TV falls or loose brackets come from poorly anchored mounts. It’s critical to properly locate wall studs or use the correct anchors for brick, concrete, or steel.
We always check the wall structure and use the right fixings for your wall type, not generic options. This reduces risk and helps preserve the integrity of both the TV and your wall.
Poor Cable Management
Nothing spoils a mounted TV faster than messy or exposed wiring. Too often, we’re called to fix amateur jobs where cables trail down the wall or hang awkwardly.
Our team plans cable runs and can upgrade power outlets legally, making sure everything remains hidden and safe, compliant with SA’s strict electrical regulations.
Incorrect Mount Alignment
It’s easy to end up with a TV that’s slightly off level. Even a few degrees out stands out, especially on larger screens.
Using proper tools and checking measurements twice is standard for us, so you get a perfectly aligned TV, first go, without re-drilling or patchwork.
Incompatible Brackets & Fixings
Not all brackets suit every TV or wall material. The wrong bracket can put your TV at risk or leave you with poor adjustability.
We inspect both your wall and TV specs, choosing hardware that matches weight ratings and VESA patterns for both security and longevity.
If you want TV wall mounting done right and compliant, reach out for straightforward advice or to book an install with our licensed team.
Our TV Wall Mounting Process
We aim to make TV wall mounting safe and straightforward, with our team handling every detail from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect from our process.
Assessing Your Wall and Space
We begin by visiting your home to check your wall type and the area where you want the TV installed. This helps us choose the right bracket and placement for a secure fit and the best viewing angle.
Mounting and Securing Your TV
Once the plan is set, we anchor the bracket to suit your wall, whether it’s brick, plaster, or something else. We then attach your TV, make sure it’s level and stable, and take care of cable management so everything looks tidy.
You get a durable, neat finish and peace of mind knowing your TV is properly installed. We’re happy to answer any questions along the way.
Tuning and Final Setup
Once the TV is up, we connect your devices and check the signal and sound to make sure everything works as it should. We adjust settings based on your preferences and can briefly show you how to use any new features if you like.
Demonstrating & Handover
Before we leave, we will walk you through the finished setup so you know it’s all working and safe. We make sure you’re comfortable with the layout and handle any final questions on the spot.
