Bunk TV in a 255RS

[ellisz]

Hi all,

I am looking to add a TV to the bunk room in my 255RS. The TV will be going on the front of the camper as that is where all 4 bunks can see it. I was going to run some wood from the 2 top bunks and mount to that but I would like to get a little more height. Can the TV be mounted to the wall? Apparently my stud finder is old and does not identify metal. Is this really an option? Is the aluminum something I would want a TV hanging from? Maybe the wood idea is best any way.

Ideas?

Should there be a stud at the end of the bunk going up? There looks to be a seam in the middle of the wall as well. I would think that if I could run a 1x4 from the top of the bunks and get a screw in the middle and at each bunk edge, I should be ok. I could also add a metal L bracket on the 1x4 and the rail of the bunk to help as well.
