Question about hanging a TV on the wall
Posted on 12/26/15 at 11:11 am

I'm thinking of hanging my TV on my wall, above a piece of furniture.
My only outlet that is available would be lower, behind the furniture. Is there any way to hang the tv and not have cords show? I know I can't be the only person to deal with this.

Drill a hole in the wall or buy a strip and paint it the same color as the wall that will hide the cords a little

I'd imagine there are people faaaaaaaar more hands on than myself who could figure out a way to run the wires through the wall and come out beside the outlet behind the furniture. I'd have no idea what to do though.

Google wire covers for tv

Gonna need to raise the wall up so that the outlet is at the same level as the TV.

If you can hang a tv, you're not far off from being handy enough to jump an outlet behind your tv

Fish the wire in the wall. How does a man not know the answer to this

If only there was a board here to ask such a question

Jumping an outlet is very easy. Take 5 minutes and watch a YouTube video to learn how.

Lowes has some options for this and is very simple to install. One caveat, if the wall is an exterior wall you will have to deal with the insulation. That was a pain. Good luck.

I had someone make a electrical outlet right behind my TV.
No visible cards. I think Apple runs thru attic or something.

Yeah. Just have to drill some holes in the wall.
