Mounting TV/bracket on insulated wall

Lantern Jaw

Hi all
Looking for advice on the above. It's about 80mm to the block. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I had something similar for my parents house.
I used 122mm concrete screws to fix a inch thick plank of wood to the plasterboard by anchoring into the block through the insulation void, then I mounted the TV bracket to the wood.

Thanks for reply. You cut out the insulated board and recessed the wood in and screwed into that? Or mounted the wood on the board?

mounted the wood on the board. Making sure not to screw too far to damage the plasterboard in case I ever wanted to move the telly and just fill small holes.

These would do the trick! 4-6 fixings. Make sure you have a good drill and correct size drill bit! Get the fixing tight in the hole.

Rigfix screws bought them on eBay
16mm hole for wall plug and Allen head bolt in to the concrete,
Provides a threaded 8mm hole in the centre to bolt in the bracket,









I've also used Blue GripIt fixings with the under cutting tool to remove some of the insulation at the back of the plaster board

The modern plasterboard fixes are excellent and add a dollap of no more nails. Unless you are living in a mad house and swinging off the tv that would suffice.
