Along with more advanced technology in screens and monitors, comes the more advanced installation of the equipment itself. It’s all fine following the instructions with store bought products when using them in the home, but for large business with far more advanced needs the safe installation of mounts and equipment can be difficult and dangerous if neglected. You are even more at risk if monitors or screens are placed in high locations, with the risk of falling. In today’s tough economic climate, having to fork out for employee injuries because the safe installation of mounts was ignored can be a very expensive and stressful experience. Fortunately there are some things you can do to make the process run more smoothly.

Unlike a lot of manufactures Atdec has a large range of their installation instructions available online, allowing you to be prepared before even purchasing a mount solution. You can get all the tools and hardware prepared before it comes time to install so you don’t run the risk of settling for a “bodge job” when you realise you have things missing.

There are several things you need to consider. Firstly is your commercial or office space. Can your project actually safely fit within the space you need it to? This requires a lot of pre-planning. Next you need to consider the tools needed. As mentioned do not settle for using second rate tools or hardware, or even the mounts themselves, because the cheapest option may prove expensive if your screens should fall and cause damage, not only to themselves, but also the workforce. You should always remember to follow the instructions closely! A lot of people have the tendency to go in to the installation process head strong; assuming this bolt fits to that hole, but this may result in a shoddy and unsafe installation.

If you are at all unsure with any aspect of the safe installation of mounts or any other equipment, then contact the company that supplied you and they should be able to help with installation, or outsource the installation to somebody with the credentials required. Planning your fit out and installing it in house may seem like a cheap alternative, but it can be very unsafe.
