How to Install 85 Inch TV on Concrete Wall

Concrete and brick walls offer incredible strength—but only if you drill and anchor correctly. Unlike wood, concrete doesn’t ‘grip’ screws; it requires mechanical expansion anchors that lock under pressure. Skipping steps like dust removal or using a regular drill (instead of a hammer drill) leads to weak holds and anchor failure. We once tested 12 different anchor types on cured concrete—the sleeve anchors from Red Head consistently outperformed others for loads under 100 lbs. Always match your bit size precisely to the anchor, and never reuse a hole. Also, wear safety goggles: concrete dust contains silica, which is hazardous to lungs. In this guide, we break down the exact tools, techniques, and safety practices used by contractors on job sites daily—so you can mount with confidence.
