How to cover hole behind TV?

Hi everyone,

 

I’m looking for some ideas on how to cover a 350x350mm hole behind the TV, where the internet router, power board, and all the wiring are located.

 

I was considering a thin plastic cover or lid, but if anyone has a better suggestion—something neat and low-profile—I’d really appreciate your input!

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @MartinB84,

Thank you for taking these safety concerns on board, regarding this project.

Something like this is never easy, given the often extremely limited amount of space behind a wall-mounted TV, 

the need to have quite a bit of equipment behind it and make this gear inconspicuous.

No-one wants a house fire, they are never good, I've been to hundreds of them over the years.

 

Cheers,

Mike T.

Hi EricL, I ended up hiring qualified electrician and cabler to complete the job properly.

All I did was painting the area 😊

Hello @MartinB84 

 

Thank you very much for the update, the outlets look fantastic, I'm sure it will look nice and tidy once everything is hooked up.
