We tell how to place the TV so that it is completely recessed in the wall or interior partition, and which models are best suited for this.
One of the popular design solutions is to install embedded TVs in the mirror. In the off state, such a mirror does not differ from the usual, and when the part is turned on, it is transformed into a television screen. Photo: Mirror Media
Enter the TV to the interior, leaving only the screen, tried a long time ago. One of the first successful attempts was associated with the use of video projectors. The device itself is located somewhere in a secluded place, for example, under the ceiling. In the off state, the projector is immeasured and does not interfere with anyone. We will talk about projectors in a separate article.

As for ordinary TVs, modern models may have such a thin case that, if you install the TV close to the wall, from a distance of 2-3 m you may not be able to say whether the TV from the wall or its screen retreats with It is strictly in the same plane. For example, LG Signature TVs have a thickness of 2.57 mm. They can be completed with superproof brackets, due to which the screen surface turns out to be pulled from the wall plane by about 1 cm. Similar flat kits are developed by other manufacturers, such as Samsung and Sony. And if you still wish to completely embed a TV in a wall or furniture, then you will need special models for which the enclosure is not required.
Conventional TVs require the presence of a free space around the housing so that the electronics does not overheat. Therefore, they cannot be installed under the glass or in the deep niches. For such architectural installations, embedded TVs of such stamps are used as AD NOTAM and MIRROR Media. They can be installed inside wall structures, fully or partially embedded in furniture in the living room, kitchen or, for example, bedroom.

For bathrooms and other rooms with high humidity, there are special TVs with a necessary level of moisture protection (minimum IP44). This, for example, the AquaView, AVEL brands, the same Mirror Media and Ad Notam. They can be installed both in an embedded version and on a conventional bracket stand. "Mirror" is very popular when the TV is mounted in the mirror so that in the off state it is impaired. Similar installation is technically complex, in addition, a power connection is required according to PUE rules, so you should trust these procedures to specialists.

How to embed a TV in the wall
The installation process resembles the installation of electrical sockets and switches. At first, niche is prepared in the wall, the sizes of which depend on the size of the TV and the embedding option. There are two installation options:
- In the first, the TV is partially embedded, the front panel remains outside and is superimposed on the surface of the wall of the vest (1).
- In the second, the TV is inserted into a niche of the whole, and the screen mirror becomes on the same level with the wall, that is, the joint in the joint (2).
A mounted mounted box for a TV is installed in a niche. Power cables and cables for which the information signal (for example, antenna is served through the holes in the rear or side wall. All cables are connected to the TV, which is then attached by self-assembly to the mounting box.
When planning a built-in TV, it is very important to choose the right place to build - such that the rays from the windows or lighting devices are not given unwanted glare (after all, then such a TV will no longer move to another place).
