What do I use to open this?

[Homervanderjazz]

Hi,

I am trying to take off my TV from the TV bracket on the wall. However, there is some sort of security screw at the top and I have no idea where the key will be. Does anyone know where I can buy the key for this and what exactly it is called? Pic attached.

Thanks for your help.

Get one of these. Sometimes the likes of Aldi and Lidl have sets of them for peanuts.
Halfords

it looks like a security torx/star screw
do you have any sets of Bits or a screwdriver that takes standard bits ?

You need something like this https://www.temu.com/uk/33pcs---bit...xk&refer_page_sn=13554&_x_sessn_id=17e0cgp8c3

You can get a security screw bit set pretty cheaply on amazon or pay a bit more for a quality product like wera

Yep its just an anti tamper/security torx bolt, you need a torx bit with the hole in the centre

If you don't mind scratching it and it's not too tight you might loosen it with mole grips/water pump pliers.

Try a flat bladed screwdriver, offset it to miss the pin. If it's not too tight and you get just the right size, it can work.
