Wall mount advice for UN65KS8000?

[swchoi89]

Hi all,

Can someone please recommend a good brand for wall mounting my 65" KS8000 samsung TV? I don't need those tilts or whatnots. I just need a basic/simple one.

Also, is there a guide on what other accessories I need to buy such as extra screws, etc?

Thank you in advance.

Most mount kits come with all the hardware (screws, etc.) you need.

For lighter-weight stuff, I'll use some fender washers and drywall screws, rather than the included lag bolts, since the holes are smaller and easier to repair.

For a 65" TV, you'll probably want a mount that attaches to multiple studs. (Drywall anchors are right out.) If you need the TV mounted not-quite-on-center-to-the-studs, screw a couple 1x3 boards into the studs, paint them the wall color, and then attach the mount to the boards wherever it is you need it.
