Professional Wire Concealment & Cable Management in Phoenix AZ
Nothing ruins the aesthetic of a sleek, wall-mounted television like a tangled mess of black cables hanging down the wall. Whether you have a home theater setup or a professional office display, visible wires are distracting and can even be a tripping hazard for children and pets. At TV Audio Mounting & Installation, we specialize in Wire Concealment & Cable Management in Phoenix AZ, ensuring your entertainment space looks as clean and organized as possible.
Our experienced installers work with homeowners and business owners to find the best solution for hiding power cords, HDMI cables, and speaker wires. From simple external tracks to seamless in-wall routing, we provide a variety of professional services to fit your specific needs and wall type.
Our Cable Management Solutions
We understand that every room is different. Depending on your wall construction and your personal preference, we offer several ways to tidy up your tech:
- In-Wall Wire Routing: This is the gold standard for a “floating” TV look. We run your low-voltage cables behind the drywall using specialized brush plates or recessed outlets.
- Power Relocation Kits: Since standard power cords are not rated for behind-the-wall use, we can install code-compliant power bridge kits that move your electrical outlet directly behind the TV.
- External Cord Concealment: For renters or those with masonry walls (like brick or concrete), we use high-quality, paintable raceways that sit flush against the wall to neatly house your cables.
- Component Management: We don’t just hide the wires; we can also help organize your cable boxes, gaming consoles, and soundbars for a completely streamlined setup.
Our Installation Process
When you book a service with us, we follow a proven process to ensure a safe and aesthetically pleasing result:
- Site Assessment: We inspect the wall type and locate studs to determine the best path for your cables.
- Cable Selection: We ensure your HDMI, optical, and ethernet cables are the correct length and rating for the installation.
- Routing & Installation: Our installers carefully cut necessary openings (for in-wall) or secure tracks (for external) to route the wires.
- Finishing Touches: We install wall plates, connect your devices, and test everything to ensure a perfect signal and a clean finish.
Materials and Compatibility
The type of wall you have dictates the method of concealment we use. Most standard drywall installations allow for complete in-wall hiding. However, if you are interested in fireplace TV mounting, the process may involve working around studs, insulation, or heat shields.
We use high-quality, UL-rated materials to ensure your installation meets safety standards. If you have a specialty setup, such as an outdoor TV installation, we use weather-resistant cable management solutions to protect your equipment from the Arizona elements.
What Affects the Cost of Wire Concealment?
While we strive to provide affordable solutions for every client, several factors can influence the final pricing of your cable management project:
- Wall Material: Drywall is generally the most straightforward, while lath and plaster, brick, or stone require more time and specialized tools.
- Number of Cables: Hiding two HDMI cables is simpler than managing a complex 7.1 surround sound system with dozens of wires.
- Distance: The further the cables need to travel from the TV to your components, the more labor and materials are required.
- Power Requirements: Adding a recessed power outlet or a bridge kit is an additional step compared to only routing low-voltage signal cables.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you hide wires behind a brick or stone fireplace?
In most cases, we cannot run wires inside solid brick or stone. However, we can often find creative ways to route them through existing cavities, use paintable external tracks, or hide them along the mantle for a clean look.
Is it safe to put my TV power cord inside the wall?
No, standard TV power cords are not fire-rated for in-wall use. To do this safely and stay up to code, we install a power relocation kit that provides a recessed outlet behind your TV.
Do I need to provide the cables?
You are welcome to provide your own cables, or we can provide high-quality HDMI and optical cables for you. We recommend using cables that are long enough to allow for the full range of motion if you are using a full-motion swivel mount.
How long does the process take?
Most standard wire concealment projects take between 30 and 90 minutes when performed alongside a TV mounting service.
