65-Inch TV Mounted on Drywall in Stone Mountain, GA

A Stone Mountain, GA homeowner wanted a 65-inch television mounted in their main living area with a clean, cord-free presentation. A tilt mount was chosen for its ability to reduce glare from the room's large windows, and a dedicated power outlet was installed directly behind the TV to eliminate visible cords.

The tilt mount was anchored to drywall-backed wood studs in the living room, positioned at 42 inches from floor to screen center for optimal seated viewing. The tilt mechanism provides 12 degrees of downward angle, reducing glare from afternoon sunlight through the south-facing windows. A new electrical outlet was installed behind the TV within the mount's footprint.

Lag bolts were driven into two wood studs, distributing the 65-inch TV's weight across four anchor points. A digital level ensured perfect horizontal alignment. The recessed power outlet was wired to the nearest circuit using code-compliant in-wall rated Romex, positioned within the mount's footprint so the short power cord plugs in completely out of sight.

The Stone Mountain living room now has a clean, modern TV installation with no visible cords or power strips. The tilt mount handles window glare effortlessly, and the behind-the-TV outlet provides a permanently tidy power solution. The stud-anchored bracket ensures long-term stability for the 65-inch display.
