Hide TV Cables Behind Your Wall | In-Wall TV Cable Management

Tired of looking at all the cables coming from your TV? Want a clean, modern look to your entertainment center? Hide the cables behind the wall with one of these kits! In this video I go through the process of installing an in-wall cable management system, which not only hides the TV cables but also routes power behind the wall and up to the TV mount.

Since this is an exterior wall, I have to deal with the insulation in the wall when installing. It's not a big deal since the cables just slip between the insulation and the drywall.

Very smart to leave a pulling rope in the wall. Would have never thought to do that. Thank you for that awesome tip. You never know what tomorrow will bring.

Thank you for explaining everything. As the basic DIYer who is deathly afraid of anything electrical, I can honestly say now “I get it!”😂. Plus ya did it in bare feet… So now I gotta step up my game. 👍

That box system is worth its weight. Makes a truly professional looking system and it greatly the complexity from a video I watched on another post.

We have openings in the wall at our apartment to hide TV cables but had a hard time pulling the actual cables through, so just gave up. Thanks for the advice on the fish tape!

Thank you for doing this video! This is exactly what I was looking for!

Fantastic video, I never knew they made things like this for power/cable management. Super helpful, you betcha!

Clueless in all of this what is and why do I need “Romex” wires? You work very quickly!😅 Is this to create a plug at the top to power Tv instead of running it back down? Is this a kit? What would I order if it’s a kit. Thanks for educating a newbie!

In rhe UK, you can run 1 x power, 1 x coaxial, and 1 x hdmi. Use rhe hdmi with a switcher block hidden in rhe cabinet (seperate remote to switch hdmi, but can get auto switching, check for eg 4k spec)

i want to see how to insert that clamp that holds to the wall. I got a new clamp as mine broke. s there a video showing that?

[SimilarDistance]

If I go your route and want to put flex tube in is there a recommendation on that or because the power is in wall safe, it would presumably be safe to pass through the flex tubing as well?

[darthdecent]

My wife saw alot about running a flex pipe behind the wall to protect cables from mice and what-not. I work for a cable company and run cables all the time but have never used a pipe but what are you're thoughts? Seems like it would damage the drywall to fit one in there

[jolier]

What if it’s a tv, sound bar and wall mount electric fireplace-is that kit enough for all three?

Great video! Much appreciated!
Thanks!

Ok so I did this a few years ago and ran 2 HDMI cables thru. I came across a fire block and overcame this by cutting out a section of drywall at the otherwise of the wall and drilling a hole in the fireblock. The cables went thru no probs. Problem is I have since tiled the wall at the other side and I now want to run a 3rd HDMI to the TV from my new soundbar. Any suggestions???

Where can I buy this from? Do you have a link or model number? Thank you.

[MrRerod]

Are you the author of "Design and Analysis of Timber Lamella Segmental Arches"?

[nikkieconyers]

I live in Lacey, WA do you have any suggestions on how I can hire someone to do it for me if you are too busy.

[HealthPoliticsAndProtein]

Will this method be a problem if the wall is insulated?

[French_Fitness_]

Love the video and the product but sadly I have to many transformers attached to my power cables for this to work

[urbanmyth]

Any reason to add extra weatherproofing or the like since it is an outside wall?
