OK, I did a search and even though this has been discussed, I could not find anything relating to steel studs.
We would like to hang a 42 inch LCD TV from the wall. The problem is that it is an inside wall and the studs are steel, 18 inches on center. The TV is actually quite heavy.
I cannot find any kind of fastener that I feel would secure the mount into the steel studs. I also don't believe that the drywall is strong enough alone to support the weight.
Any ideas on how I can mount this TV on the wall?
Thanks.
