Size, weight and the mount

| 98 in | About 130–170 lbs | 800×400 or 800×600 | Extra-wide mount rated 200+ lbs |
| 100 in | About 140–180 lbs | 800×600 | Extra-wide mount, often four studs |
What the numbers show
- Threaded holes Four holes on the TV's back form the VESA pattern; the TV's manual lists their size and spacing.
- Horizontal spacing Measured centre to centre, in millimetres, from the left holes to the right holes — the first number of the pattern.
- Vertical spacing Measured centre to centre from the top holes to the bottom holes — the second number.
- Mount brackets The mount's brackets must cover the TV's pattern and be rated for the TV's weight.
- Spacer Where the TV's back is curved or has a recess, spacers keep the bracket flat.
- Thread engagement The bolt has to reach well into the insert without bottoming out, so the right bolt length matters.
Getting it into the room
A 98-inch TV box is over 8 feet long. Stair turns in two-story Irvine homes, hallway corners and the front door width are measured before delivery. The TV is carried upright, unboxed in the room and lifted by two people onto the mount; panels this size flex if carried flat.
Seating distance and height
- Viewing distance — roughly 1 to 1.5 times the screen's diagonal for 4K content: about 8–12 ft for an 85-inch TV.
- Height — big screens sit a little lower so the top of the image is not above eye comfort.
- Wall width — the mount spans several studs; doors and windows nearby are checked so the screen clears them.
The bigger the screen, the more the install is planned before anyone touches the box.
Large TV Mounting (85 Inch and Up) — common questions
How much does mounting a 98-inch TV cost in Irvine?
About $229–$329 for labor in 2026 on a wood-stud wall; a supplied heavy-duty mount adds $45–$140 and steel studs or tile add to that.
Can a 100-inch TV go on a steel-stud wall?
With a backer plate across several steel studs and a mount rated for the weight, yes. The backer spreads the load.
