TV MOUNT QUESTIONS

Guys how often do you think is a good idea to check the screws holding the TV to the wall mount to make sure they still tight, once a year maybe?

Well, YMMV, so don't put your television at risk based on anything I say.


That being said, I very recently retired a 50" Kuro (old-school heavy TV) that was on a Peerless 3-way articulated wall mount. It had been up there for 6 years, and I had not touched the various bolts even once during the 6 years.


The screws going into the back to the Kuro were still quite tight.


I had to raise the mount a couple of inches for the replacement TV, and the lag bolts going into the wall studs where a **itch to get out of the wall.

There is no need to check to see if the screws have loosened, because they just don't do that.
If they were "secured" when mounted and it's not a moveable mount that gets manipulated several times a day I'd feel real good about "NOT" checking them.
