If you are talking about the outer wall of a Gardenia, it is concrete block with furring strips for attaching the drywall (at least mine is). There is foam board insulation between the furring strips. However, you can attach the mount directly into the concrete block as the furring strips are not all that thick. There aren't any metal studs on the outer wall.

Are these wood pieces big enough to secure the bracket to hold a 60+ lb tv. Anyone done this and successfully the tv has stayed attached?
