Hanging your TV can be a daunting task and figuring out what to do with the cables can be a nightmare. So while I am hanging mine I figured I'd show you how I do it and how easy it can be.

Great video... - straight to the point - useful content - digestible conversational style - not trying to sell or advertise anything, just a guy showing you how he mounted his TV Thank you.

[@MatthewEncina]

The in-wall is exactly what I've been looking for. Thanks!

[@TheSoldout1]

Me too

[@dylanrogersfilm]

I bought that same in-wall kit, the mounting kit, a stud finder and painters tape. I'm gonna give this a shot today. Thanks for the tips.

[@fawzimingles7350]

Where did you buy it from please?

[@texa5boi]

How did it go?

[@smartyboi44]

I’ll be doing this very shortly. The cupboards above and tv install. You made this very easy to understand. Thank you for the tips.

[@vishwareddy7335]

You guys are awesome, The way you effectively utilize space, finally making a , elegant , beautiful aesthetically designed space to live in. Thank you for such a detailed explanation of the measurements and techniques and process you followed in this video

[@CodyJensen]

Thank you!!

[@MichelleNaceStyling]

Wow that whole process was fascinating. Using painters tape forever now also that wall kit is very neat. I spy Aritzia!!!

[@DerekHendricksHadSex]

This video was SO HELPFUL. We were dreading running a new plug and our landlord wasn’t convinced so this will save so much time and hassle.

[@vinnyditty8775]

Very nice and clean installation. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@khgriffi]

Thanks for the video. I did this install after watching. Looks amazing!!!

[@jessicaspellman5656]

This is a great video! Super helpful tips thank you for posting!

[@CodyJensen]

Thanks! Glad it helped!

[@TorranceJPlaylist]

For all the those saying it violates electrical code are wrong. The in wall kit is designed for low voltage cables. The power cord for tv is connected to the kit on the outside

[@butter101stew7]

Yes your right but you can run the power cable for the tv in the wall and it will be up to code. Those saying it violates electrical code needs to read the code it was changed in 2014 here it is www.electricallicenserenewal.com/Electrical-Continuing-Education-Courses/NEC-Content.php?sectionID=111.0

[@frederickmorton275]

nevertheless power cable is still inside of the wall and it shouldnt be in the wall without conduit or appropriate electrical cable used

[@EastCoast_883]

Nice diy video! In the process of doing the same to my space. What speakers do you have mounted

[@bahgzd]

Thanks for the tips! Great video resource

[@DabidRobinson]

So clean!!

[@dalv88530]

So clean and neat. What kind of speakers are those?

[@luisfnieves1722]

Great job with the video. Extremely helpful

[@anthonyc1883]

Nice. Cable management is important to a really clean, finished look.

[@CodyJensen]

Amen.

[@khgriffi]

This looks slick af. I’m going to do this. 💯

[@ThatDudeCortez]

Great content 🔥👌🏽

[@briancastillo8643]

Where can I find your tv stand? I would love something similar that includes that floating storage above the tv

[@jig1056]

This is excellent, great tips. Thanks

[@CodyJensen]

Thank you!

[@nickhill6523]

Awesome video. I have a question, where should I drill my whole if I have my main tv wire coming from the left and my HDMI cords coming from the right. Should I drill in the center and meet the cords in the middle, or should I choose a side and feed the cord to that hole ? Also I have a swivel mount on my tv that can tilt as well, what advice do you have on having some slack to give so I am able to pull out and maneuver my tv a little. Also I am planning on purchasing the same tv kit that’s in the video but if there is something that works better that you know of and will make for a easier install feel free to point me in the right direction! Thanks for your time.

[@averygaddis5489]

Cool video. I like your commentary, my man. Thanks.

[@Yashiro-nene_dies]

Didn't know Logic was doing home improvement videos.

[@AutoAbsolute]

I wish walls in the UK we like pasteboard. My living room is all block and needs serous work to chase cables in :(

[@gdotmoney96]

New builds have plasterboard in the uk

[@andisimoni5537]

I can’t find any type of kits for Uk plug for the power cable any links please

[@charliewilson3234]

Cody!!! Does your landlord know you did this to his apt??? LMAO Nice job man, I'm stealing your idea!

[@BryGuyMcfly]

How is this install holding up? I have a similar dilemma, I have a single stud down the middle behind the wall, and the 2 to the sides are 24" away from center. Thinking to lag bolt to the middle stud and use anchors or toggle bolts to the sides to dry wall. Aesthetically I think this will look better, but I'm nervous about strength and might go for the plywood board method. TV is a 75" @ ~ 90 lbs.

[@berniemcchrystal3457]

Out off all the videos I have seen this is the most easy one to understand thankyou for sharing your video 😊u could be mattchinng a fortune if you did this for a job very clean tidy joob well done must try it cheers

[@filipeminho9026]

What is the name of the hide cables kit? Can you make a video about putting the wall patches to hide the holes? Thank you!

[@grantcoop]

How did you mount the speakers and what brand are they?

[@jahkure]

Nice tutorial. What length hdmi cables did you use?

[@tprovo6951]

Where did you get that swivel table that you eat on at your couch 🛋 ? Thank you

[@charlesahweyevu]

How do you add hdmi devices like firesticks and chromecasts?

[@yahushuadavis7439]

If I may ask, how many '/" is between your mid-century TV stand and TV? Do you have any neck problem when watching TV? Thanks in advance. Jah Bless!

[@jessejwarren]

How big is the TV? How high did you mount? Just mounted a 65" yesterday in the living room and went with a 47in center point off the ground to fit the ARC under it. Thoughts?

[@bernardocaca8479]

Very nice 👍🏼

[@CodyJensen]

Thanks!

[@BradAlmond]

surprised no one has asked yet - do you have a link to the TV mount you used? Looking to get the same one.

It’s a discontinued piece from IKEA. Thanks!

dope !!! Great job, Great Vid !!!

[@CodyJensen]

Thanks!

[@stephenmason5682]

Don't run loose cables down the wall, use a plastic tube! Then, in the future you can add more cables or swap out faulty ones by simply pushing them down the tube?

[@geletmote]

Im confused is your comment advice or are you asking for some advice?

[@robroberts2064]

Why would you need a plastic tube? Why would you ever push a cable? He didn't mention it, but you can bet he left a small string in the wall that you can use to pull more wires.

[@MrAbhijyot]

Hey Cody, love the geometric art on the wall. Was this self made? If not can you share the link. Thanks!

[@CodyJensen]

Thanks! It's an original from a local artist in Tulsa.

[@propheticvoice77]

Nice video

[@karenhilmy]

Wow. Cooool I want that.

[@davidadamus177]

That electrical power kit is pretty cool! Should save a couple hundred bucks vs. hiring an electrician. If I needed 2 power plugs, would you just hide a small surge protector behind the TV?

[@jch7807]

looks very clean! great job!!

[@ELI-vm9yf]

Nice video!!!!👌👍👍👍👍👍

[@ashfamilyvideos]

What did you use to fish the cable behind the wall?

[@gtberg]

I love clothes shopping! If you want to ditch Cody and shop with me, I'm available.

[@frederickmorton275]

overall nice video. I dont think power cable should go into the wall without conduit but other than that neat job

[@tacolover8559]

Amen no less no exaggerated explain such a beautiful explanation just seen in my recommend videos instant subscribe!

[@MakingBusinessesBetterAgain]

great video, would have been cool if you linked more of a tutorial on connecting a receiver, speakers and a simple How-To line them up with your TV for a mini surround sound affect. Additionally, you could have linked up direct links to a speaker sale, receiver sale, TV antennae sale, wiring sale, etc . . . . that credits a personal account for the business you brought to the supplier (OR Etsy, the products yourself :). Next time, show more and create yourself a little side money with your great tutorials/videos. You do have potential to go further financially with that, as you have an ability to keep viewers focused and eye catching clarity in describing your videos. Great job at simplifying a small space.

[@fawzimingles7350]

Where can I get the kit?

[@ibnnews8917]

What camera 📷 you using

[@easywinlads]

Anyone know of an in-wall kit like that but for a UK plug?

[@IMWONDERFL]

How can I get it

[@kamsingh1699]

interesting way of doing this. thanks, but i enjoyed the video of the walk around in nyc even more. Thanks for the tips on pizza too!!! :)

[@shughy1]

Watch your music volume level, as it comes in very loud if people adjust to hear your voice 👍 keep both around -3db or so

[@anan445]

Damn this was so cool to watch

[@GlooowTube]

Great video. This only works in the US tho. In Europe we have houses and apartments made of actuel brick and concrete.

[@propagandapaul8331]

Song name? :)

[@AamirIsmail]

hi to run the cable, how do you know that there is no horizontal blocking stud.

[@aidannwalker]

Does anyone know what song he is using

[@hardeepsingh5924]

I think the Power Cable needs to be separated from those other Data transmission cables such as HDMI, Speaker & Ethernet cable by atleast 1 feet if i am not mistaken. They seem barely an inch apart using that solution.

[@CodyJensen]

I don’t think they would make wall plates and kits like this if that were the case. That would open them up for major liability.

[@scratchgolfermd]

Yes, this is correct.

[@kathleencrepeau2063]

Wow! Impressive! :)

[@CodyJensen]

+Kathleen Crepeau Thanks! ☺️

[@michaell2889]

So the tv and the projector. What do u think about the projector.

[@CodyJensen]

+Chao Liu The projector? I don’t have a projector.

[@michaell2889]

Cody Jensen oh sorry about that. I thought you had both. So how's New York compared to your home town. More fast paste for sure right. More opportunities to make money

[@CodyJensen]

+Chao Liu We love it! So much more going on and way more opportunities and connections to the things we want to do. Twice as expensive though, so that sucks.

[@michaell2889]

Cody Jensen yeah. Well I will continue to follow your channel. And try to recommend it to others to help you grow and I wish you can become successful in your businness or job.

[@CodyJensen]

+Michael L Thank you!

How come the wall doesn’t have insolation or sound proofing? Great video though. Very interesting.

[@CONCRETEJUNGLE-be6ic]

[@mctooch]

what if you dont have the furniture below to hide all the mess though

[@randybobandy6998]

Yes it looks very smart having it on the wall but the work that’s involved is quite intimidating to the average Joe and some people electrical setup/walls really doesn’t comply with it

[@MrSupertaiyou]

Yeah where I live we don't have cardboard wall but solid concrete

[@RydenDirty]

Thanks for the info. I forgot all about the reason I was here cause the videography was so good 👍

[@cretnotonic]

You're so handy, are you a handy man? How come you opted for the non pivot wall mount? I noticed your bed is on the side of the tv, wouldn't a pivot mount be easier to watch tv in bed?

[@CodyJensen]

Haha thanks! I like to think I’m handy but I’m not a professional handyman, I don’t prefer pivot mounts because of how far they stick out from the wall. As far as the bed situation, I try not to make it a habit to watch tv in bed.

[@brucetesta4747]

What do I do for plaster walls?
