Welcome to the forum from Radium Hot Springs BC.
There is normally a rectangular plate behind the area marked for the tv.
Try self tapping sheet metal screws.

1 1/2" max I would say, especially if your mounting on a sidewall.

Yeah, it's the sidewall in bedroom. I plan on buying a studfinder and use sheet metal screws
