Installing a TV antenna Eave Mount

The TV antenna eave mount is a non roof penetrating mount. Many times the eave mount can be place on the side or back of the house and be kept out of site from the front of the home. The eave mount is strong enough to hold the largest TV antennas securely.  

If you need help before, during, or after the installation please contact me at mail: TV Antenna Source anytime. Or call 1-800-528-9984 Monday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 5 PM Eastern Standard Time. 

Step 1. Large bracket assembly

A. Place one of the larger bracket halves on top of the other half lining up the center holes. If the holes do not line up properly place the bottom half on top.  
B. Insert the two small bolts in the outer two hole of the four holes attach nuts and tighten.

Step 2. Inserting the Pipe

A. Insert the long bolts through the remaining two holes in the center of the large bracket. Place the pipe clamp strap onto the bolts, thread the nuts onto the bolts and insert the pipe and tighten. This pipe should be no longer than three feet for installation purposes.. If a longer pipe is desired replace the shorter piece with the desired length after the installation is complete.  

Step 3. Installing the upper bracket. This procedure may be done from a ladder below or from the roof above. In this case I chose the roof above.

A. With the small bracket center at the peak, using a drill bit about half the thickness of the lag screws, drill two pilot holes through each bracket hole into the facing board. This procedure will prevent the wood from cracking and splitting and insure a solid mount.
B. Insert the lag screws into the holes and tighten firmly.

Step 4. Installing the lower bracket

A. Insert the pipe with the lower bracket attached into the upper bracket. Raise or lower it until the lower bracket aligns with the roof facing and the pipe is level.

B. Tighten the bolts in the upper bracket to hold the lower bracket in place.

Step 5. Securing the lower bracket

A. With the upper bracket and pipe holding the lower bracket in place pre drill the two holes in the lower bracket using a drill bit about half the size of the lag screws.

B. Insert the lag screws into the holes and firmly tighten.

C. If desired replace the shorter pipe used for installation with the desired length.
