Tract houses, retrofitted apartment buildings and Valley Glen
Tract homes from the 1950s are wood studs on 16-inch centers, drywall or a thin plaster skim, and open stud bays. Two studs and 5/16-inch lag bolts is the standard job, and cables go inside the wall with a power kit ($69) in owner-occupied homes.
Apartment buildings over carports were retrofitted under LA's soft-story ordinance, so you'll see steel frames in the parking level — not in the units. Inside, walls are drywall on wood; the question is the lease. Small holes in two studs and a paintable raceway ($39) are the renter's best friends. Apartment TV mounting in LA.
Renter-friendly installs
Most Van Nuys leases allow small fasteners if they're patched at move-out. A slim fixed mount ($39) sits an inch off the wall and leaves four quarter-inch holes — less damage than a cheap no-stud kit that fails and tears out drywall. Best mounts for apartments.
Garages, dens and second TVs
Converted garages and dens are common here. Garage walls may be bare studs, drywall or block; we look first, and in hot garages mount high and away from the door.

What this means for your TV wall
With 59.4% of households renting and 33.6% of homes in buildings of 20 or more units, most TV walls here belong to a landlord, so the lease decides the plan. The housing is older than it looks: 42.2% was built before 1960. Those wood studs are easy to find, but the paint may predate 1978, so we keep openings small, never sand, and switch to a raceway when a cut would go past a minor patch.
Small-lot homes and new mid-rises
Along Sherman Way, small-lot subdivisions fit several narrow homes onto lots that used to hold one, and developers have proposed five- to seven-story buildings near the Civic Center and the Metrolink station, from 33 units on Erwin Street to 124 apartments on Van Nuys Boulevard. Each brings its own TV-wall questions.
In a small-lot home, the best wall is often the one shared with the neighbor. It is often fire-rated, so we lag into its studs and keep boxes out of it. In a new mid-rise unit we confirm the stud type with a thin bit: steel studs need their own hardware, never plain lag bolts, as our metal stud guide explains. Upper floors mean stairs, and a 98-inch screen comes with two technicians. Most new units offer flat drywall and a well-placed outlet, so a tilting mount ($49) over the console often takes about an hour.

Booking around the boulevard rebuild
The G Line stop at Van Nuys Boulevard and Vesper Avenue has been closed since February 2025 while it is rebuilt as an elevated station, so expect cones and lane shifts. When you book, send the cross street, gate code and visitor parking; Kostiantyn plans the route around the work zone.
For renters, the lease shapes the job. If drilling is limited to the mount, we pick a bracket rated to carry a soundbar too. If the manager wants paperwork, the certificate of insurance goes out before the visit. Cables can ride in a painted raceway, but the TV's own power cord never goes inside the wall or into a raceway with them; power behind the screen means a listed in-wall power kit or an electrician's outlet. Ready? Send a photo of your wall and pick a slot.

A few jobs from the last months — the kind of walls and setups we see here most.
Rental apartment near Van Nuys Boulevard
Only the TV mount was allowed, so Kostiantyn clipped the soundbar to the bracket, rated for both.

With the gas logs on high, the brick above the mantel read too warm; Kostiantyn mounted higher with tilt.

On-site notes from Van Nuys jobs
- Street parking is usually easy; apartment complexes may need a visitor pass.
- Some older units have two-prong outlets — we recommend a grounded outlet or surge protector.
- Morning slots avoid the afternoon Valley heat in un-air-conditioned units.

TV mounting in Van Nuys, CA: common questions
Can I mount a TV in my Van Nuys apartment?
Usually, if your lease allows small fasteners. We use a slim mount into two studs and a removable raceway.
How much does TV mounting cost in Van Nuys?
$119 up to 60 inches, $129 up to 85 inches, mount from $39. No travel fee.
Can you hide the wires?
In a house, inside the wall for $69; in an apartment, a paintable raceway for $39.
Will the G Line rebuild affect my appointment?
Only the drive, not the work. The Vesper Avenue station is being rebuilt as an elevated stop, due in December 2027. Send your cross street and parking notes, and we plan the route and arrival around the work zone.
Can you mount on move-in day in a new building?
Usually, yes. Managed buildings often want a certificate of insurance and a reserved elevator; we send the certificate the same day in most cases. If the lease rules out drywall cuts, a raceway keeps wires tidy and peels off later.
Can a soundbar go up if my lease allows one mount?
Often, yes. If the bracket is rated for the combined weight, the bar clips to the mount and the wall gets no new holes. Adding one is $69, about 30 minutes; send the model and we confirm the fit.
