TV Mounting Services

Andy's Handy Services in Manahawkin, New Jersey, offers professional TV mounting solutions, including ceiling mounts and three wall-mount options: flat, tilt, and full motion. Their services ensure a seamless installation, enhancing your viewing experience.

Basic TV Mounting

This is an example of a basic TV mounting application. There is no power outlet behind the TV and none of the low voltage wires run through the wall.

An extension cord or a surge protector with a long cord(recommended), may or may not be required in order to make a power connection. Wiring is simply dressed and plain in-sight. This is also the most economical approach.

Hidden Wiring Mounting

This is a TV mounting solution with hidden wires. This type of installation will typically require a power receptacle (outlet) behind the TV and all low voltage cabling (HDMI cables, Coax (cable) wire, etc.) to be in place.

***In New Jersey, only a licensed electrician or the owner of a single family dwelling are permitted install the power receptacle if not already there. It is also unlawful to run the TV power cord or an extension cord through the wall, as this creates a fire hazard.***

Not all walls can accommodate in-wall cabling without cutting, patching, and painting drywall. Some walls contain fire blocks—horizontal 2x4 or 2x6 framing between studs—that make running wires difficult without opening the wall.

These are commonly found in shared walls with garages or kitchens but can appear elsewhere. Additionally, solid surface materials can prevent in-wall wiring. In such cases, surface-mounted raceways provide a clean alternative for managing exposed cables.

Surface Mount Cabling

Don't want to install a receptacle yourself or hire an electrician? No problem!!

Although we aren't licensed to traditionally install your receptacle, there are alternative power options that we can provide for your TV's. The image above shows one type of solution.

It is a pre-terminated outlet using in wall rated wiring and is code compliant in most places. It is simply supplied power by an included extension cord of up to 3-feet from an existing power outlet.

In Reference to the image above, the only parts that are actually visible are the two round receptacles (one behind the TV and the other below it, the vertical portions between the TV and furniture are hidden inside the wall), and an extension cord connect the new lower receptacle to an existing power receptacle.
