Hello,
I would like to mount my TV on the wall with an articulated arm bracket on drywall. Do you think it will hold? I'm worried that over time it won't hold up with the stress of the articulated arm.
Thank you for your responses.

    To fix heavy items to drywall, you need to take two L-shaped brackets and drill at the top of the brackets; this way, the force is applied in shear rather than in pulling out. You can obviously drill two or three holes on the upright part of the brackets, which will reinforce the setup.
