Weigh the television together with the bracket and cables. Identify whether the bracket is fixed or full-motion because the arm increases the moment on upper fixings.
Method basis: Rigips/Knauf system guidance and Fischer/Hilti fixing-selection principles. Final parameters always come from the selected product data.
How to plan the installation
Anchor beyond non-structural plaster, keep the bracket hole pattern and follow the selected fixing data for hole depth and cleaning. Apply load gradually after installation.
Common mistake
Common failures are shallow holes, selecting by bolt diameter alone and clamping the bracket against weak plaster.
Pre-start check
- Was the structural base identified rather than only the finish?
- Does the weight include contents and projection?
- Were services, edges and minimum spacing checked?
- Does the product data permit the base, direction and environment?
