TV Wall Mounting Melbourne: Mounts, Heights & Hidden Cables Explained
Wall mounting a TV sounds simple.
Find the studs, attach the bracket and hang the television.
But getting a TV onto the wall and getting it to look like it belongs there are two different things.
A clean installation comes down to positioning, the right bracket and what happens to all the cables.
What Height Should a TV Be Mounted?
There isn’t one perfect height for every television.
The correct position depends on:
- TV size
- Viewing distance
- Seating height
- Room layout
- Furniture
- Viewing angle
Mounting a television unnecessarily high can make it uncomfortable to watch.
The room should determine the position.
Fixed, Tilt or Full-Motion Mount?
Different brackets suit different installations.
Fixed mounts keep the TV close to the wall.
Tilt mounts provide some vertical adjustment and can help when the television needs to sit higher.
Full-motion mounts allow the television to extend and change viewing angle.
The television size, weight, wall construction and desired finished appearance should all be considered when selecting a mount.
Can TV Cables Be Hidden?
Often, yes.
A professional installation can consider how power, HDMI, Ethernet, antenna and other connections will reach the television.
The objective is usually to avoid having a beautifully mounted TV with a bundle of cables hanging underneath it.
Should You Install Ethernet Behind the TV?
If you’re renovating or installing new cabling, it’s worth considering.
Smart TVs and streaming devices can use Wi-Fi, but Ethernet provides another connectivity option for fixed equipment.
If you’re already opening walls or running new cabling, planning the network at the same time makes sense.
Think About Future Equipment
Today’s setup might only require a television and streaming box.
Tomorrow you may add a soundbar, gaming console or other AV equipment.
Planning cable pathways and equipment locations can make those upgrades much cleaner.
