The good news is that there are simple steps to safely install a television and protect those around it.
If such instructions are included in your TV’s user manual, follow them.
Some TV makers even provide a small harness or anchor cable to assist in the installation.
Also, double-check your wall can support the weight of your TV.
This provides more stable placement and is not nearly as susceptible to wobbling.
Even still, you should take maximum care to guard against unexpected tipping or falling.
Also, check for small holes on the back of the base portion of the TV’s provided stand.
