FAQs

What size TV can be mounted on this backboard?

The Acantha TV backboard is designed to accommodate televisions up to 65 inches in screen size.

Does the backboard come with mounting hardware?

The backboard itself does not typically include wall mounting hardware. You will need to purchase screws and anchors appropriate for your wall type separately.

How should I clean the slate effect finish?

Clean the backboard with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to protect the finish.

Can I paint or alter the finish of the backboard?

While not recommended as it may void any warranty and affect the intended aesthetic, modifications to the finish are not advised. Always test any potential alterations in an inconspicuous area first.

Is this backboard suitable for outdoor use?

This product is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to moisture and weather conditions can damage the material and finish.

What is the weight limit for the backboard?

The product description specifies compatibility with TVs up to 65 inches. Always ensure your TV's weight is within the capacity of the mounting hardware used and the structural integrity of your wall.

Can I install this over an existing wall surface?

Yes, as long as the existing wall surface is structurally sound and provides a stable base for mounting the backboard and the television.

Troubleshooting

Backboard appears uneven or wobbly after installation.

Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened and that the wall surface is flat. If using wall anchors, verify they are securely seated in the wall. Re-check that the backboard is level before fully tightening.

Difficulty aligning TV mount to the backboard.

Confirm that the TV mount's VESA pattern is compatible with your TV and that the mount's arm is positioned correctly over the backboard's intended mounting zones. Consult both the TV mount and backboard instructions for alignment guidance.

Scratches or marks on the slate effect finish.

For minor scratches, try a very gentle polish designed for laminate or effect finishes. For deeper marks, contact customer support for advice. Clean regularly with a damp cloth to prevent dirt buildup that can look like marks.
