Best Console Wall Mounts for PS5, Xbox & Switch (2026)

Reclaim your TV stand: the best wall mounts for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch and retro consoles in 2026, with picks for every setup.

Your TV stand is full. Your kids keep knocking the controller off the console. You wall-mounted the TV years ago and now there's a sad little shelf below it covered in dust. The fix is the same fix it's been for a decade: get the console off the floor and onto the wall.

Below are six wall mounts and shelves we keep recommending in 2026 — one for every modern console, plus a universal pick, a controller rack and a floating shelf for everything else.

1. Best PS5 Mount: TotalMount for All PS5 Models

If you only buy one wall mount this year, make it this one. TotalMount fits every PS5 — Slim, Pro and original, disc or digital — and includes two controller cradles that clip onto the bracket itself. The metal frame leaves the vents fully exposed, so airflow is identical to having it on a desk. Install is four screws into a stud or drywall anchors; cable management runs cleanly out the bottom.

2. Best Xbox Series X Mount: Heavy-Duty Metal with Cooling Channel

The Series X is a small black tower that screams to be wall-mounted, and this heavy-duty metal bracket is the right way to do it. Ventilated brackets sit flush with the console's intake/exhaust so thermals stay normal, and the cooling channel underneath stops the bottom vent from being smothered. Pairs nicely with games like [Forza Horizon 5](/games-like/forza-horizon-5/) and [Halo Infinite](/games-like/halo-infinite/) on a clean wall-mounted setup.

3. Best Switch Mount: HIDEit for Switch & OLED

HIDEit is the OG of console wall mounts — they've been making steel brackets for every console since the Wii era. Their Switch mount fits both the original and OLED dock and uses VESA-compatible hole patterns if you want to attach it behind the TV. Great for a tidy living-room setup where the kids will be playing [Mario Kart](/games-like/mario-kart-8-deluxe/) or [Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom](/games-like/the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/).

4. Best Universal Mount: Monzlteck Console + Controller Combo

Got a mixed shelf — PS4, Xbox One S and a PS5 Slim? The Monzlteck universal mount has adjustable arms that fit PS3, PS4 (Pro/Slim), PS5 Slim/Pro, and Xbox 360/One S/One X. It ships with two controller holders so a whole generation of hardware can live on one wall.

5. Best Controller Rack: TotalMount Wall Stands (2-Pack)

Controllers always end up on the floor. These low-profile stands attach with included adhesive (no screws into drywall) and hold any standard gamepad — DualSense, Xbox Wireless, Switch Pro, 8BitDo. Two stands per pack covers most households.

6. Best Floating Shelf: WALI 2-Tier Glass Shelf

Sometimes you want to mount more than just a console — Apple TV, Switch dock, cable box, router. A floating shelf is more flexible than a single-console bracket. The WALI 2-tier holds 17.6 lbs, has cable pass-throughs, and looks tidy under a wall-mounted TV.

How to choose

- **Stud-mounted is best.** All of these mounts will hold their rated weight on drywall anchors, but a single stud screw is more reliable long-term. - **Don't block the vents.** Every console mount above keeps intake/exhaust paths clear — avoid generic shelves that wrap the console. - **Cable length matters.** Stock HDMI and power cables are short. Buy a 6-ft replacement HDMI 2.1 cable if you're mounting away from the TV. - **Two-controller mounts beat single.** You'll always end up with two gamepads at minimum (one main, one backup or for a friend).
