How Do I Mount A Flat Screen Tv With Wires Hidden?

February 21, 2010 by

There is a few ways this can be done. The best way is to hire a electrician to “wallfish” all the wires you need run in the wall. You can attempt to do this yourself but the risk of hitting electrical wires could be great, not to mention the looks of the hole in the wall you will create by probably not having all the correct tools to do the job correctly.
The cheapest way to do what you want is to buy a “wire chase” from Home Depot that either screws or sticks to your wall that can hide the wires inside of it. All you will see is one thing on your wall that goes from the TV to wherever you need it to go.
Of course you will need a wall bracket for your TV, most TV’s dont come with them but are usually sold to you by the salesperson that you bought the TV from. Then you might need a construction contractor or whatever to install it on wall studs, if that is the case they will ahve to open up the wall and you can put the wires in then.
You might be able to find a home theater installer in your area that can wallfish the correct wires for you but he/she might want to sell you their wires and charge you big $ for them.
The best bet is to contact a big name store like Best Buy or Tweeter etc and have them install it for you, usually they have a deal if you buy a TV or home theater system from them for free installation.
Either way good luck!

How Do You Mount A Flat Screen Tv To A Brick Fire Place?

DON’T DO IT. especially if it is a working fireplace. check your warranty, it will probably be voided. TV is heat sensitive. This is especially true of Plasma, they run pretty hot to start with and many have cooling fans if the air being pulled thru is heated air then your only heating it more. LCD will also be affected but not to
the extent of the plasma, but it’s still in danger.
This all being said, if this is a non working fireplace, then it isn’t too tough, you will need a masonry bit and drill. layout holes to match your mounting bracket, and attach the bracket to the brick using expansion anchors or masonry screws.
Lots of people have asked this question, I know it’s the “Perfect Place” cause then you have the crackling fire, romantic chic flick, and good wine —- man what a setup. And after all you only spent a few thousand on the TV.

I Want To Buy A Small Flat Tv That I Can Mount On The Wall?

January 24, 2010 by  
Filed under GADGET

I don’t really care about picture quality and I want it to be like 10 inches or even less. I don’t have anywhere where I can place it so it needs to be flat and wall mountable. I don’t want to spend too much money either. Does anyone know of a company that makes these kinds of tvs? nothing fancy just small and mounts on the wall
