How to Mount Your TV Without Drilling Holes

While mounting a TV on your wall is one of the most common ways to set up a TV in your home, office, or business, it’s not a feasible solution for everyone. Sometimes you’re in a rental space that won’t allow drilling into the wall, sometimes you need more flexibility in your room, and sometimes you’re just not comfortable about drilling into the wall of your space.

In any case, drill-free TV mounts are a great alternative that can offer many of the same features as wall mounts and more flexibility in how you customize your setup.

The Best TV Mounts That Don’t Drill Into Your Wall

There are many ways to mount a TV screen in your home with or without drilling. It’s always worth considering drill-free TV mounts so that you can customize your space exactly how you like it.

Tabletop TV Stand

Most flat screen TVs come with their own basic stands so that you can set them up on a flat surface such as a table or media cabinet, but these stands limit your ability to adjust your screen for optimal viewing.

You want to be able to turn or tilt your screen so that you can see it from anywhere in the room, and being able to adjust the height can also enhance your viewing experience. With an after-market TV stand such as the Kanto TTS100 you can adjust both the angle and height of your screen while also creating space below for gaming consoles, speakers, or other AV equipment.

While many TV cabinets have cable management components built into their design, they don’t always give you enough slack or flexibility to raise the screen, which can complicate customizing your setup. The built-in cable management of the Kanto TTS series helps you keep cables tidy as you raise your screen, so you can use it with any sturdy surface.

Another feature to consider in any TV stand or mount is safety. The Kanto TTS series comes with a security tether that can attach to your wall and keep your screen from falling forward in case something bumps into it.

Overall, tabletop mounts like the Kanto TTS series is a great drill-free TV mount option for setting up your TV on top of large furniture.

The shelves on all the models in the Kanto MTM series are built to handle the weight of common AV equipment, and you can adjust the height of the shelves so that your equipment can always stay connected to your screen.
