View Full Version : Metal Studs / Wall Support

After just completing my basement, I now want to add a wall-supported TV "stand" (it is not really a stand but one of those things with a shelf) to hold a 19 inch TV about 6 feet up the wall. I forgot to use a wood stud there and now I'm not sure how I can secure a TV holder, or even a regular shelf.

The only saving grace I can see that might help my situation is that this will be in a corner, so I have two walls to lend support to whatever options are available to me.

So, how can I get this TV to stay up there?

On a related note, I also want to install some cabinetry to a different wall, but there too I used metal studs. Any advice here?

Thanks!

Well, guys and gals, thanks anyway. I'll figure something out (I hope).
