Make Lowe’s Your Electronics Supplies Store for Mounted Entertainment

A well-connected home takes entertainment to the next level. Want to perfect your living room setup with a new Samsung or LG smart TV, an Apple TV, Roku media streaming devices or wireless headphones? Looking to create an outdoor movie theater experience with a projector movie screen or Furrion Outdoor TV? We’re here at Lowe’s to be your electronics supplies store and help you put the right combination of electronics in place.

Below you’ll find information on mounting a television with the right equipment for your needs.  

TV Mount Sizes
A TV mount is a great way to free up floor space in your living room or entertainment area. Make sure you find a wall mount that fits your TV. If you have a 65-inch TV, you’ll most likely need a 65-inch TV mount. Likewise, a 55-inch screen will need a 55-inch TV mount, a 32-inch TV will need a 32-inch TV wall mount and so on.

While shopping, remember that weight is also important. Even if the mount specifications match the size of your TV, be sure to check the weight the mount will hold.  

Mount Flexibility
A mount’s flexibility can also be key. A full motion TV mount allows you to adjust the TV in any direction you need — up, down, left and right — so you can find the perfect angle for viewing. If you want to see the TV from another room, a swivel TV mount lets you turn it left or right to make viewing easier. There are also fixed and tilting options, and the latter is ideal if your TV will hang higher than the normal viewing level.

How to Install
When it comes to installing a TV on your wall, there are a few factors to consider regarding placement. For example, you can’t mount a TV just anywhere on a wall. It needs support, so use a stud finder to locate a spot that can bear the load. Having easy access to power outlets and other connection points is also crucial.

Another consideration is viewing height. The bottom of the TV should be at eye level for seated viewers, and the top should be at eye level for standing viewers. Stay within those parameters to create a comfortable viewing experience. Lack the wall space to hang your TV? Consider a ceiling TV mount. Or opt for a corner TV stand with mount.

Once you decide on a location, it’s time to get the TV mounted. You’ll need certain supplies, such as TV mounting brackets to ensure a secure hold. Connection cords are also important, whether you need an HDMI cable to connect your TV to your cable box, a coaxial cable for a digital video recorder (DVR) connection or just a simple surge protector.

After mounting your TV, you may still need something to house media components, such as Roku devices, Blu-ray players, smart hubs or gaming consoles. A wall-mounted TV cabinet can be a great choice. Mounted TV entertainment centers keep floor space open while still offering storage. At Lowe’s, we offer a variety of wall-mount TV stands, so you’re sure to find one that suits your needs.

Want entertainment outside? An outdoor movie screen coupled with Bluetooth speakers is a great way to reinvent family movie night. And don’t forget about the small electronic details that can enhance your space, like Bluetooth headphones and earbuds from Sony or Anker — or a digital picture frame to keep your favorite memories on display.
