STEP 5 - Determine wall-mount location

NOTE:

 

For more detailed information on determining where to drill your holes, visit our online height-finder at: 
http://mf1.bestbuy.selectionassistant.com/index.php/heightfinder

Your TV should be high enough so your eyes are level with the middle of the screen. Normally, 40 to 60 
inches from the ground.

The center of your TV will match the center of the wall plate (

). Before you drill holes 

in the wall:
1

Measure the distance from the bottom of your TV to the middle of the four 
mounting screw holes. This is measurement

.

2

Measure the distance from the floor to where you want the bottom of the TV to 
be placed on the wall. Keep in mind that the bottom of the TV should be placed 
above any furniture (such as entertainment centers or TV stands). The TV should 
also be above items placed on top of the furniture (like a Blu-ray player or cable 
box). This is measurement
