Nice work! I just built one as well with stone, but just a personal preference I like the TV on the outside so you’re not married to the same one/size. At the end of the day you build what your customer wants. 👍
The tv’s are.put onto a multi functional bracket, so it comes out on an arm and tilts up/down/left/right. Everything within the tv recess is then accessible
Seem to be all the rage But the lack of access to the sockets and being forced to forever have that exact size… Agh the lack of everything just stresses me out. Where do the speakers go??? What about plugging things IN !?? 😝😝😝 stressed!!
Was doing these “media” walls 15 years ago up west and the thing I told people at the time was what happens if your tv or fire breaks? Even if you miraculously find a tv the same I guarantee the new bracket will go over your socket lol.
Hey nice build I’m in the process of doing mine. Quick question, did you secure to studs at the very top to the ceiling? Or did you only secure the build to the studs in the existing wall? Thanks a lot
Hiya, great and hope you manage to get it all done smoothly with no issue. So I never screw into the ceiling as far too many hidden wires/cables. Always drill into the floor to secure a fixing from the stud as far less likely to have a problem. Thank you
@@mediawalls2u thanks for the reply, one last question though.. how did you install that wooden shelf that’s between the tv and fireplace? Thinking of doing that and placing a soundbar on it
What are them tv brackets called where u can obvs push it forward or backwards to fill a space better, and how does the tv actually clip onto it once it’s all built?? As doesn’t seem much room to clip tv on
Yes and we build a raised shelf within the tv recess allowing consoles/sky boxes to sit on, then always use a tv bracket that comes out on an arm. It may show this on other videos 👍🏻
Doesn’t code state an existing wall outlet can’t be covered over with a permanent structure. I would think that bottom outlet would have had to be relocated?
What are the measurements I’m trying to Have a carpenter build this for me and this is what they are asking. My tv is 55 inches and instead of the fireplace I want a soundbar cutout
So the depth of this is 300mm but the width really varies depending on the tv size. A carpenter should know this and would build off the tv dimensions.
