Cleaning Up TV Wires

Tired of Seeing Cords Dangle from Your TV? Try These Two Simple Fixes

Option 1: Use Cord Covers

Eliminate cable clutter in under 5 minutes with this renter-friendly, easy-to-install solution. Cord covers offer flexibility for adding or removing cables. Our top pick is a snap-on design that’s customizable with paint and comes with connectors for extended runs. Opt for the thin model for single cords or the medium variant for 2-3 cables. Larger sizes can accommodate up to 4 cables, covering most needs.

Pro Tip: We recommend using two screws to mount the cover instead of the provided adhesive strips, as they rip the paint off when removing them.

Option 2: In-Wall Setup with a Power Bridge

For a sleek, cord-free look, consider installing a power bridge. This method is only possible with drywall, and offers the best appearance with no visible wires. Note that it involves drilling two 3-inch holes, meaning a bit more commitment and potential patchwork if you decide to remove the setup. Plan ahead by running extra HDMI cables to accommodate future needs.

Pro Tip: Keep the cut-out drywall pieces for easy patching later. They'll fit perfectly when it's time to fill the holes.
