One of the ways to gain space at home using the television is to hang it on the wall. A solution that I have given you can help us improve visibility is a monitor to take care of postural hygiene by making us work more often. And to hang the TV on the wall there is nothing left to talk about known as VESA supports.

Is about a mounting standard to facilitate the task of placing the TV, according to its measurements or what is the same, to du diagonal. Each model requires a suitable wall support, with certain measurements, so it is important to make the right choice since the correct display will depend on this or that we do not have scares that can even cause it to detach from the support and fall into the most unexpected moment.

The VESA interface, an acronym for Video Electronics Standards Association, refers to the type of bracket and the distance between the four mounting holes on the back of a TV that it is screwed into. a type of support used to mount televisions and other screens on wall mounts or stands. VESA mounts are universal and they have different measurements depending on the size (and therefore the weight) of the TV, which are shown as horizontal distance and vertical distance.

The VESA interface for mounting televisions is not something new. This Flat Device Mounting (FDMI) system was established in 1997 and over time has been adapting to different screen sizes. On the back they have a space with holes so that we can fix it on the wall following the corresponding standard.

Regardless of the panel technology and the brand of TV or monitor we buy, almost all models or at least those of a time to this part, have support to use the VESA Mounting Interface Standard (MIS) system.

Less than or equal to 2 kg

Less than or equal to 4.5kg

Less than or equal to 14 kg

Less than or equal to 23.7 kg

M6 x 8 or 10mm, M8 x 15mm

Less than or equal to 113.6 kg

In this sense, we find six classifications of the VESA mounting standard that correspond to the screens based on their diagonal and weight: VESA MIS-A, VESA MIS-B, VESA MIS-C for small sizes and VESA MIS-D, VESA MIS-E and VESA MIS-F for larger diagonal models.

With these data we can a series of basic classification:

The televisions of up to 24 inches they usually use a 100×100 mm VESA.

The models that have a diagonal that goes from 24 to 30.9 inches they usually use a VESA 200×200 mm bracket.

TVs over 55 inches They usually use a 300×300 or 400×400 mm VESA bracket and those larger than 65 inches have a 600×400 mm VESA.

In addition, in the market we are going to find solutions for both wall mounts fixed, as well as for tilting or articulated arms that allow us to adapt the position of the screen to our liking.

With the fixed supports the television is closer to the wall, leaving very few centimeters of separation, but the device will have a single position. This makes it the simplest and also the cheapest.

If we choose a tilt standwe can tilt the screen to improve viewing angles.

If instead we use a articulated support, we will be able to tilt the screen but also move the television sideways, as well as tilt it vertically. You can fully adapt the TV to the viewing angle you prefer.

To check if a TV or monitor is compatible with VESA mounts, just turn the TV or monitor around and look for an area where the screw holes are grouped into an area that can be rectangular or square. This is the fastest way to know the size of the support that our television will need, with the horizontal and vertical holes in the rear area of ​​​​the screen.

To know the type of support just measure the distance between the holes. Thus, if the horizontal distance between the holes is 400 millimeters and the vertical is 200, the TV requires a VESA 400×200 support or, what is the same, VESA MIS-F 400×200. Normally almost all models have support for VESA and in fact there is a list with associated brands that allow this type of support. If a television or monitor is VESA compatible, it means that it complies with the standard and the norm that we have already seen.

When using the support on the television, we can find cases of screens (they are usually monitors) in which the base and base must be removed. TVs usually have four screws which are the ones that we will have to use, placing the support on the corresponding holes and adjusting it with the screws that come in the support.

To attach the bracket to the wall, to which we will later attach the TV stand, it is advisable to mark the holes for the stand on the wall with a pencil. In fact, it is common for a paper template to come to facilitate the work. We must take into account, when marking, the size of the TV so that it is neither too high nor too low.

In this sense and to achieve a better subjection it is advisable to make all the necessary holes to use all the screws and with all the depth that the plugs require to ensure that the support is well fixed. In this way, once the support has been placed on the wall, it is time to join the piece of the wall with that of the television, a task that from a certain diagonal and weight may require the joint work of two people. To finish we cannot miss an important point and that is that the wall, the point where the support is fixed, must be strong enough. Thus, for example, if we are going to place the TV stand on a plasterboard partition or on a plaster wall, we must take into account a series of limitations due to the weight of the television.
