...with screws and I would recommend this system/very sturdy--you have to buy two straps though. They are packed individually.Hope this helps you.

Hi Anna,The straps mount to the TV on the mounting holes that are there for people who hang their TVs to the wall. The straps come with the needed screws.Not sure about the other answer though. Mine came with two straps, so only one set was needed.

I have my TV sitting on an entertainment centre with the straps attached to the back of the cabinet. Overall the straps are around 7 feet long and are adjustable depending on the size of your TV. This is a good product, would recommend.

Yes, it is primarily affixed to the TV via velcro but there is also a strap. It's secure enough. The main point of the product is to protect the screen from flying objects thrown by small children or dogs. Our screen protector has already saved us from two or three thrown objects that probably would have broken the screen. After our 2 year old broke our plasma TV by accidentally throwing a very small plastic toy at the TV we got this screen for the new TV. Like I said, I think the protector has already saved the new TV twice.

Yes it does. Multiple choices to fit into the back of the TV and screws to attach to wall or furniture. Hollow wall anchors are not included if you want to attach straps to wall.

Doug, my straps are held with rivets. I guess you could remove the rivets and reattach using screws and nuts how you wanted.

The straps are woven nylon with metal clasps. The bottom "brackets" are soft plastic material (very similar to the pad on a luggage shoulder strap). Don't be put off by the inexpensive nature of the bracket. I bought single units of three different under desk mounts to see which worked best. This unit was the cheapest and the it was the best. It holds the case very securely. I ended up buying 24 of these and would repeat the purchase if need be.

Not so hot, unless you have very wide stairs and move them up sideways. Basically its a roughly 3-inch wide strap that attaches to a shoulder harness, so you carry the weight down through your torso and legs (big muscles) rather than just your arms, which are used to help guide the object. Problem with narrow objects like flat screen TVs (even in their original boxes) is that the strap can slip sideways a couple inches as you're negotiating stairs or turns. Not a big deal when the object is 2 feet wide, like a washing machine, but could be a real problem with long narrow boxes.

I did forget to mention that the two vertical bars are bolted to the back of the television. To remove them, they would have to unbolted. Easy. No problem.

We have a full wall unit entertainment center and have a straps on either side and they work great. We also have one on our sons dresser. We have 3 little ones and one is a climber. Needless to say everything is still attached to the wall and kids are all intact as well. ;) I love these things

No way to attach to it. The TV set is separate from the stand. It's just a simple stand. Though the stand itself is actually very strong

Different clips (included in package) allow unit to slip into cooling vents on back of TV and the weight holds system in place.

you can purchase anti-tip straps for about $10 that attach to the back, however they only stop it from being pulled forward (such as onto a child), I'm buying this for my mother who has some crazy cats... I'm going to take her tv's base and drill through it so that we can then bolt the tv base directly to the stand (so it couldn't tip from any direction). If you have active kids or pets I don't see any other option.

My TV in my travel trailer is mounted on a swivel arm and has a bungee like strap that holds it flat against the wall when in motion.

The TV should have holes on the back to mount it on a wall which are used to attach these straps.

There is about a 2-3 inch lip that would hang on the top of the tv. It came with Velcro straps to secure it to the tv and some Velcro pads to adhere to the parts of the protector touching the tv. The overhang at the top is what made it impossible to fit over the new slim screens which are about an inch wide. It also was about an inch too tall for our Sony 50inch TV that we bought which made trying to use the Velcro to keep it in place impossible.

Putting velcro on the sides of the TV does make it steady and secured. The best way is to move two of the velcros provided and place them on the curvy/bent side of the plastic protector so they sit and stick to the top part of your TV. This, of course, assumes that the protector has the right size for your TV.

There elastic straps with clip on buckles which holds the top part in place.
