How to you check which wall type you have for our TV installation and mounting service?
When you mount your TV on the wall, you want it to remain there for some time. That's why it's important to check which wall type you have, so our installers know which tools they need? We'll tell you how you can find out what type of wall you have in this article.
Check what type of wall you have
When you choose a TV installation and mounting service, you have to indicate which wall type you have. With these 2 steps, you can easily figure out what type of wall you have.
Step 1: check if it's an outer or inner wall
Step 2: knock on the wall
Step 1: check if it's an outer or inner wall
Do you want to mount your television on an outer wall? An outer wall is a wall that separates your house from the outside and that isn't adjacent to another room. These walls are nearly always made of concrete or brick. Do you want to mount your TV to an inner wall, a wall between 2 rooms in your home or between 2 houses? Start reading at tip 2.
Step 2: knock on the wall
Knock on the wall you want to use for the TV and listen to the sound it makes. Does the wall sound hollow of does the sound echo through the wall? Your wall is made of plaster or wood. Don't hear your knock echo and does the wall sound solid? In that case, you have a concrete, aerated concrete, or brick wall.
