Form library · AV and IT
A room by room, screen by screen check for installers fitting displays and TVs. The form compares the weight of each screen and mount with the mount's rating, checks the height to the centre against the agreed height and your tolerance, measured with a tape or from a photo, and counts the screens over their rating, off height or failing the picture test across the job. Try the form below, see every question or open a completed example.

A display installation checklist should record each screen's location, size, make and model, the mount, and the wall or ceiling it is fixed to. It should confirm the fixings suit that surface and the combined weight of screen and mount, then check the height to the centre of the screen, that it is level, power and signal, a picture test on every input, and photos.
Last updated . Facts checked by the SiteSurvey team on 5 October 2026 against BS 8539:2012+A1:2021, selection and installation of post-installed anchors in concrete and masonry (BSI) and HSE safety notice on height adjustable display screen stands in education.
Go room by room and add each screen. The form checks the weight of the screen and mount against the mount's rating, compares the height to the centre with the agreed height and your tolerance, and counts the screens that are over their rating, off height or failing the picture test across the whole job. Measure the height with a tape, or from a photo with a door or another known size in it.
Measure with a tape as usual, or mark the door on a photo as the reference and the floor to the centre of the screen. The marked-up photo is kept with the answer. It works on web forms in any phone browser today, and the app version is on its way.
How measuring from a photo works →
Enter the weight of the screen and mount and the rating from the mount's label. The form shows the share of the rating used and says Within rating or Over rating, with a red note not to leave a screen on a mount that is over.
How calculated fields work →
Each room counts its own screens, and the job totals show how many were installed, failed the picture test, are over the mount rating or sit outside the height tolerance, before anyone signs off.
How calculated fields work →Add photos of each installed screen and its back box, and film the finished wall if the client wants to see the cable route.
Five screens in a fictional primary school: one fails the picture test on the HDMI wall plate, one sits 30 mm above the agreed height against a 25 mm tolerance, and an articulating arm in the music room is over its rating and needs refitting. The meeting room screen was measured from a photo at 1520 mm. Open it as a filled-in form, or switch to a blank copy and try it yourself.
Answer a few questions and watch it adapt. Your answers are not saved, and any photos you add are deleted within the hour.
This is the real form as your team would use it: questions appear as you answer, scores work themselves out and you can add photos and signatures. No sign-up needed. Or open a completed example to see every answer, photo and score filled in.

Your team completes the display installation check on site in the SiteSurvey app on iPhone, iPad and Android phones and tablets. The project name and address fill in for them, it works without signal, and it syncs when the device is back online with photos kept against the question they answer.
Customers and subcontractors do not need the app: send them a link and they can fill it in from any browser.
Per room and per screen: mount, weight against the mount rating, fixings, height to centre measured or from a photo against the agreed height, level, power and signal, picture test, photos and sign-off. 2 sections and 45 questions. Follow-up questions and guidance appear only when an answer calls for them, so the person on site never sees the ones that do not apply.
This is a starting point, not a fixed form. Once it is in your SiteSurvey account you can reword any question, add or remove questions, sections and answer options, and add your own logo, so it fits the way your team works and the jobs you do.
Add this form to a project in SiteSurvey and it fills in what the project already knows, so nobody on site retypes it and every form on the job uses the same names. Anything filled in can still be changed.
One entry for each screen installed.
Filled in from the project in SiteSurvey.
From the specification or the client, for example 25 mm. Leave blank to skip the height check.
From the mount's label or data sheet.
Measure with a tape, or from a photo with something of known size in it, such as a door or a floor box. Measure from the finished floor.
From the drawing, the specification or what the client asked for.

Do not leave the screen on that mount. The form tells the installer to refit it with fixings rated for the surface and the combined weight of the screen and mount, and it compares that weight with the mount's rated load, with a red note if the mount is over its rating. For wall and recessed mounts it asks for the wall type, from masonry and concrete to timber stud, metal stud and plasterboard on dabs, and it records the mount's rated load and the fixings used. For anchors in concrete and masonry, BS 8539 is the code of practice for selection and installation.
As the height to the centre of the screen from the finished floor, in millimetres, with a tape or measured from a photo that has a door or another known size in it. The form does not set a height itself: enter the height agreed for the job and the tolerance, and it shows the difference and whether the screen is within tolerance.
The form opens a description of the fault, a photo of it, who will fix it and by when. It counts the screens that failed the picture test, and at sign-off it reminds the installer to record the fault and the next step before signing.
Yes. Add one entry for each screen installed, each with its own mount, checks and photos of the installed screen, the back box and the connections. The installer signs once at the end, and the client can sign to accept the work.
Yes. Choosing trolley opens checks that it is rated for the screen size and weight, the screen is bolted to it, brakes are on at least two castors and cables are managed so they cannot be pulled. HSE has warned that heavy height adjustable screen stands in schools can fall forward and crush, and says they must be fixed to a surface strong enough to prevent toppling.
Yes. The mount types run from fixed, tilting and articulating wall mounts to recessed mounts, ceiling mounts, floor stands and trolleys, so it suits TVs and commercial displays. The form is in the SiteSurvey form library and can be edited if you need extra checks.
