Step-by-Step Guide: How to Mount an Outdoor TV Securely
Step 1: Choose the Right Spot
Before mounting, consider glare, weather exposure, and viewing angles. Select a shaded area or a spot where a TV cover or sunshade can help reduce reflections. Make sure there’s a power source nearby or plan for cable management.
Step 2: Position the TV Mount
-
Wrap the heavy-duty straps around your pillar, post, or beam.
-
Align the mounting plate to your desired height.
-
Use a level to ensure it's straight before tightening.
Step 3: Secure the Mount with Straps
-
Tighten the ratchet straps firmly to ensure a secure hold.
-
Check the stability by gently pulling on the mount.
-
Make any necessary adjustments for a snug fit.
Step 4: Attach the TV Bracket
-
Secure the included VESA-compatible bracket to the back of your TV.
-
Ensure the screws are tightened properly to prevent movement.
Step 5: Mount the TV & Adjust for Viewing
-
Hook your TV onto the already installed mount.
-
Adjust the tilt and swivel function for the perfect viewing angle.
-
Double-check that the mount is securely in place before letting go.
Tips for a Secure Outdoor TV Installation
✅ Use a Weatherproof TV – If possible, choose a TV specifically designed for outdoor use. If not, use a protective cover when the TV is not in use.
✅ Manage Cables Properly – Use cable concealers or waterproof cord covers to protect against rain and dust.
✅ Check Stability Regularly – Every few weeks, inspect the straps and mount to ensure they are still tight and secure.
✅ Consider Adding a Soundbar – Outdoor areas may have more ambient noise. Use the ZeboZap Outdoor Floating Shelf to mount a soundbar for better audio.
