42-Inch Full Motion TV Mount with New Outlet in Rome, GA Garage Workout Room

A Rome, GA homeowner converted part of their garage into a workout room and wanted a 42-inch TV mounted on the drywall wall between two windows for streaming workouts and scenery. We installed a full motion articulating mount and created a brand-new GFCI-protected outlet directly below the TV so the cord runs cleanly to a dedicated power source rated for the garage environment.

The 42-inch TV was mounted on the drywall garage wall using a heavy-duty full motion bracket secured into a wall stud with a heavy-duty toggle backup. The TV was centered between the two windows at standing/workout viewing height. A new GFCI-protected outlet was installed directly below the mount location so the power cord runs a short, clean distance straight down to dedicated garage-rated power. The articulating arm allows the screen to swivel toward different workout zones in the converted space.

Stud detection located one solid stud at the chosen mount position; the bracket was lag-bolted into the stud and reinforced with heavy-duty drywall toggle anchors for the second mounting point — more than adequate for the 42-inch TV's light weight on a full motion arm. A new GFCI-protected outlet was installed in the drywall directly below the TV using an old-work box, with code-compliant Romex pulled from the existing garage circuit. The TV was leveled and the articulation was tested through full extension and swivel range.

The Rome homeowner's converted garage workout room now has a perfectly placed 42-inch TV between the two windows, with a brand-new GFCI outlet feeding clean dedicated power. The full motion arm swivels the screen toward whichever workout zone is in use — treadmill, weights, or floor mat — while the short, tidy cord run keeps the look minimal. Stud-anchored, GFCI-protected, and backed by the 5-year workmanship warranty.
