Sanus Wall Mount

TV wall mounts are fashionable and save a lot of space in your home by eliminating bulky entertainment centers, but the key to getting the best look out of your wall mount is knowing how to hide the wires. The trick is to cut two hidden holes in the wall and run the wires through one hole into the wall and out the other.

Instructions

1

Use measuring tape and a pencil to measure and outline a 3 inch-by-3 inch hole in the drywall in the center of the area you want to position your wall mount. Measure and outline another 3 inch-by-3 inch hole at the bottom of the wall where you want the wires to exit to the devices you will hook up.

2

Cut the outlines from the drywall using a carpenter's knife. Clear away the dry wall dust and debris with your hand, then blow and vacuum out any remains with a hose attachment.

3

Place the wires through the top hole and feed them through to the bottom hole. Make sure the wires reach the device before setting up the wall mount, as it is easier to determine the needed amount of slack from the wires before the TV is up.
