I have just purchased a 55" LG TV that weighs approximately 18kg. The instructions state I must fix it to the wall via 4 self tapping screws in two studs 16" apart.

My walls are Gyproc, and I have a stud in the centre of where I wish to fix the TV. and the next stud is the standard 600mm away.

I am going to fix two screws into the centre stud, what fixings do people recommend using with Gyproc?

I thought I would ask as I don't fancy a hole in my wall and my new TV smashed on the floor.

Thanks in advance.
