  • how to mount TV

    Need to know how big the backer plate is in the wall to mount a TV bracket in the bedroom for a 2600RB 2021 Imagine and how long of screws should I use.

      I had the same question for customer service. They said the backing plate is metal and use a rare earth magnet to see exactly where it is and how large. The recommended cutting a piece of 1/2or 3/4 inch plywood to mount to the backing plate and then mounting the tv bracket to that. If I remember, screw into the backing plate should be no more than 1 inch to prevent penetrating the outer wall. You can see how thick the walls are by measuring the door to the storage bin. YOU DO NOT WANT TO USE TOO LONG A SCREW!!!! The plywood allows a longer screw (1 inch plus thickness of plywood) but I wouldn't go more than the total of the plywood pus 1 inch..

      We still haven't mounted a bracket in the bedroom. Looking for a bracket which locks in storage and have full motion that doesn't cost more than filling the 36 gallon fuel tank in my pickup

      If you have questions, call GD customer service, they are a great source of intormation.
