Instructions say this mount needs to be installed in a concrete wall. Can it be installed using wood studs?

It can be installed on wood studs. It comes with the necessary hardware for both.

yes, the lag screws for the 2x4 or 2x6 studs are enclosed in packages of hardware along with instructions but you'll need a reliable stud finder.

Hi Marissa, The mount is meant to be installed into wood studs, or in a concrete/brick application. As those are the only approved mount applications listed in the product manual, any other mounting application would need to be done by a certified TV installer. Also, please note that if the product is mounted in any application not listed in the product manual, the warranty is voided, and Value Max is released from all liability from mount failure or damage. Thank you, Value Max

It would probably be best if you did mount it on the stud. It's pretty heavy all by itself, and we have heavy components on it, so that's what we did. If you don't I'd suggest anchors for sure.

It would be very heavy to mount on a wall. You would need to be sure you have a stud to mount into.

I mounted them in studs to be on the safe side. While anchor screws may hold the unit tight against the wall, I would not want to risk having my two boards come crashing to my concrete garage floor. Good luck!

You have to use a stud as the metal bars that hold this up and mount to the wall are heavy. Without it being mounted to a stud it would just fall out.

If your mounting on a wall with Drywall I would try to mount to two studs, if you can't hit studs there are fastener systems that expand in the Drywall cavity to give support. Just trythe to staydo within aa few inchesthings of thethe stud. On a concrete wall tapcons will work fine.

You mean inside a concrete column? Yes if it is wide enough. Or do you mean mount on the concrete column. Yes if it is wide enough but you will have to drill using concrete drill bit holes for mounting screws. I bought special screws for my brick mount in mortar. I do not remember if they were 1/4 inch or 3/16 inch by 2 1/4 inches or so. I think you better ask some man to help you drill and mount. The screws they provide are more suitable for wooden attachment.

Yes. However you would probably want to use some long screws, at least 3 inches, and drill into the wall studs and/or use anchors.

It doesn't come with mounting hardware and I don't know what you would need to do it properly. I just screwed it onto a wall through the aluminum frame and it is solid as a rock.

No the included anchors are for wood or concrete only, you'll need separate drywall anchors.

Depends on what he's drilling into. I had an actual wood board that was already mounted in my place, so I screwed directly into that. In haven't put tv on it yet, but mount is super solid as such. Now, if dry wall is involved, or wall materials that aren't a solid piece of wood, you'll want to use the wall anchors to reinforce. Not going to lie, I almost never use anchors in any wall, but this is heavy stuff, and all tre support that the wall surface can get will probably help. Good luck!

It could be mounted to the side of the wall, you will have to provide the hardware, screws to wood walls and some plugs and screws in case of concrete walls.

Very definitely mount in a stud.. consider the length of the arm and what is on the end :) good luck

I have not installed mine yet but according to the instructions there are appropriately space holes already on the back of the unit for mounting to wall studs. You need to supply your own lag screws for that though.

Sort of. Out of box the setup is for a masonry mount. I see no reason it could not be used into studs with different hardware but you would really need to know what you are doing as this is fairly heavy unit with not a very broad attachment plate so could put a lot of stress on the screws
