65-Inch Fixed TV Mount Above Fireplace in Kennesaw, GA

A Kennesaw, GA homeowner requested a 65-inch TV mounted above the living room fireplace using a low-profile fixed mount on drywall. The client specifically preferred that the wiring not be concealed, opting for a clean surface-run cable setup rather than in-wall routing. Our team delivered a secure, level installation that respected the homeowner's preferences while ensuring the TV was safely anchored above the fireplace.

The 65-inch TV was mounted on the drywall above the fireplace using a low-profile fixed bracket. Our technicians located two wall studs behind the drywall and secured the mount with heavy-duty lag bolts for maximum stability. The TV was positioned at the optimal viewing height above the mantel, maintaining safe heat clearance from the fireplace below. Per the homeowner's request, power and HDMI cables were left surface-mounted rather than routed through the wall cavity.

Stud detection identified two solid wood studs behind the drywall above the fireplace mantel. The fixed mount bracket was laser-leveled and anchored with lag bolts into both studs for secure 65-inch TV support. Heat clearance from the fireplace was measured and verified before finalizing the mount position. Cable management was handled with surface-mounted cord covers along the wall per the customer's preference to keep wiring accessible and visible rather than concealed in-wall.

The Kennesaw homeowner now enjoys a professionally mounted 65-inch TV above the living room fireplace with a clean, stable installation. The fixed mount keeps the TV flush and secure against the drywall. By honoring the customer's preference for visible wiring, the installation allows easy access to cables for future changes or equipment swaps. Professional stud anchoring ensures long-term safety, and proper heat clearance protects the TV from fireplace heat exposure.
