55-Inch Canvas TV Mounted Flush Above a Fireplace in Douglasville, GA

A Douglasville, GA homeowner built a fluted black accent wall with a linear electric fireplace and wanted their 55-inch Canvas art TV to sit on it like a framed picture. The whole point of an art TV is that it disappears into the room when it is off, so a single visible cord would have undone the entire design. The screen had to sit tight to the wall, perfectly centered on the fireplace, with nothing showing.

The 55-inch Canvas TV was hung on an ultra-slim flush mount so the wood-tone frame sits nearly against the fluted panel, reading like framed artwork rather than a television. The screen was centered on the linear fireplace below and set at a height that clears the firebox heat plume while keeping the art at gallery eye level. Power and the single connection cable were routed down inside the wall cavity and terminated at a recessed outlet behind the panel, and the soundbar on the shelf below was wired through the same concealed path so no cord crosses the black slats.

We located the framing behind the fluted paneling and confirmed it by probing, since the applied slats add depth that throws off surface stud readings and change the effective mount standoff. The bracket was shimmed to compensate for the slat thickness so the panel sits flush and level to the fluted lines instead of tipping forward. A recessed low-voltage bracket and in-wall rated power kit were installed behind the screen so the plug lands inside the recess and nothing bulges the TV off the wall, and clearance above the electric firebox was measured against the manufacturer's heat spec before setting the final height.

The Douglasville living room now reads as a designed feature wall with a 55-inch art TV that looks like a framed canvas and zero visible wiring. The fluted paneling was left undamaged, the screen is centered and level on the fireplace, the soundbar is wired out of sight, and the installation is backed by our 5-year workmanship warranty.
