Wiring Solution for Flat Panel TV Mounting

Thursday June 15, 2006
Every now and then an invention comes along that is so practical it makes you wonder why you didn't think of it. Actually, I know a person who did think of it...but didn't think of the marketability of this invention. I am talking about a way to hide your cables while wall-mounting a television.

On the other side of the United States a man named Anthony Lozano had the same thought, "build a wiring solution for mounting a flat panel television." And, in fact he did just that.

His 'Wiring Solution' is a panel that screws into a common household wall and acts as camoflauge for those unattractive AV cables and wires. The wires hide behind the panel, which mounts directly underneath your wall-mounted television. Why is this a good idea?

  1. You no longer have to run wires inside the wall to hide them
  2. Running wires takes a matter of minutes, not hours
  3. You won't risk major damage to your walls or supports

Of course, before wall-mounting a television you better read about it first.
