65-Inch TV Mounted on Drywall in Decatur, GA

A Decatur, GA homeowner wanted a 65-inch television mounted in their craftsman-style living room with absolutely no visible cables. A tilt mount was chosen for glare reduction from the room's large front windows, and in-wall wire concealment was added to route all cables behind the wall for a pristine presentation.

The tilt mount was anchored to two studs on the living room's main wall, positioning the 65-inch TV at 43 inches from floor to screen center. The tilt bracket provides 12 degrees of downward adjustment, essential for managing glare from the room's east-facing windows during morning hours. In-wall cable routing was installed with a recessed low-voltage plate behind the TV and a corresponding exit plate near the baseboard.

Heavy-duty lag bolts were driven into wood studs with a torque-controlled driver. For wire concealment, HDMI 2.1 and power cables were routed through the wall cavity using a flexible fish tape. A code-compliant in-wall rated power bridge was used for the electrical connection. The recessed plates were installed using old-work brackets for a clean, flush finish against the drywall.

The Decatur living room now features a 65-inch display with zero visible cables, perfectly complementing the home's craftsman character. The tilt mount handles morning window glare effortlessly, and the concealed wiring means no cord clutter disrupts the room's aesthetic. The professional installation delivers a clean, modern look in a classic home.
