my husband is going to mount this. He has OCD and needs to know if he uses just screw provided or the 'sheet wall anchors', wont take my word, lol

Use the screws. Make sure that the holes you drill for them are squarely in the beam. I did not use the 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!

I would not use sheet rock wall achors. There are enough holes in that mount that you can hit a stud. That would be stronger.

The mount does have sheet rock anchors as well as screws/bolts, but I recommend using at least one stud for mounting. As you can see from the pics, the TV mounts (vertical attachments to TV) can slide left/right on the frame a bit so that you can have the TV where you want it. Studs are 16" apart, and if you don't have a stud finder see: http://www.bobvila.com/articles/how-to-find-a-wall-stud/#.VMUNcS7IMgY Good luck, you can ask more if you like. :-)

I absolutely would only screw it into the wood studs with the screws. Mine is rock solid AND I too am a perfectionist. If it's not in a stud, you MUST use the anchors, but I can't vouch for it's sturdiness.

Use the lag screws (the ones with the large threads) and drill them directly into two studs (drill a pilot hole first).

It is held up by 2 mounting clips, it depends on your wall, if you have hollow drywall nails may not do it. Anything solid like wood nails will work.

I used 3 50lb drywall anchors. The 4th mounting hole lined up with a wall stud. I got them at my local hardware store. Hope this helps.

My husband installed mine with screws because that's what I wanted. I have two little boys who are autistic so I want to make sure it stayed up there.

I thought about it, then I moved my TV over so I could line it up with the stud. There is just too much weight on this, even empty, for it to be trusted hanging from just anchor bolts in dry wall. I would avoid it if you can.

I used anchors through drywall with no studs. Possibly using screws and washers w/nuts would hold it. Depends also upon whether the cabinet is fiberboard or real wood and how thick it is.

Don't know your home or wall layout, if it were me and I like oak I would cut a piece to the proper size to either match my house wood trim or the pet fence and use masonary screws (tap-cons) and bolt the wooden section I just fabricated to the wall and then screw in the hooks and mounts. Just saying.

I put this up on dry wall, but found studs to screw into. Depends on how heavy your tv is if you want to trust a drywall anchor or not. I'm not qualified to answer that.

For mounting to a wall with baseboards it came with 1 Vertical mounting tube and 3 plastic wall spacers . You put screws through all of those and into the wall. I would use wall anchors (good quality molly's) if you don't have a stud behind the sheetrock in the space you are mounting to. I don't think it came with wall anchors. We just cut a long piece of wood and painted it to match before mounting it and then you have equal support behind the mounting bars all the way down. We love the gate and the piece of mind it provides.

My studs did not line up well either since I mounted mine in corner of garage. I did not use drywall anchors though; I build a frame using 1x6's which I think worked very well. It is super sturdy, and I wasn't worried about seeing the wood mounted on the wall since it was the garage. I have pictures of how I did it, so if you want to see them, just let me know. My email is jshook12@yahoo.com Good luck!

It comes with a screw to put in the wall and you can hang it on the screw. I however, used 3M Command Velcro strips. I wasn't sure exactly where I wanted them mounted. It's heavy duty and works great! You apply a velcro strip to the wall and one to the unit. I can change my mind and remove them any time without any damage to the wall. I would recommend this installation.

I would purchase different wall anchors if you need to anchor to driwall. I believe I was able to place at least a pair of the screws that came with these in a wall stud and I used much heavier duty anchors, purchased separately, for the others.

I bought 2 of these, one I drilled in screws and mounted that way, the other I used a wide strip of Velcro, not sure what your needing to hang to but you can always reinforce with some gorilla tape for a good secure hold. Hope this helps and I am sure there are many more ways, but this is how I put mine up.

I had to mount it into sheetrock. So I didn't use the provided screws. I used sheetrock anchors that I bought from the hardware store. It slides onto the screw heads so you can use whatever length or type of screw you need.

Let's just put it this way my husband is not handy at all and he hung in up with no problem! Haha not sure what he used to hang it up though but he had it mounted in a few minutes.

It's been a minute since I put mine together, but if memory severs me, you'll need a Phillips screwdriver, a hammer, and a drill to mount it. I also made a template to use when hanging mine, so that I knew it would be straight. The instructions are terrible so you'll need a bit a patience too :0)

I didn't attach this to the wall but set it on top of a console. I attached some earthquake ties to it and the wall but didn't use the wall bracket or screws. I would think some standard 2 inch wood screws would do the trick but can't tell you for sure.
