How to Hide a TV

Most everyone has a TV in their home, however most people do not like looking at it when it is turned off. Here are a few ideas for disguising a TV.

 

  1. You can hide a TV in a cabinet or armoire. Simply close the cabinet or armoire doors when you are finished watching TV. Make sure there is plenty of air circulation in the cabinet when the TV is turned on.

  2. You can disguise a Television in an electric TV lift that is mounted inside a decorative cabinet. When you are ready to watch TV, the TV lift will raise. When you do not want to watch TV, the TV lift will lower and be out of sight. TV lifts are extremely effective for a TV at the foot of a bed.

  3. You can put a special transparent framed mirror over your TV or purchase a special mirror TV to hide it. The mirror will look like a regular framed mirror until you turn on the TV, then the TV will shine through the mirror glass.

  4. There are special cabinets that contain a mechanism that revolves to have a bookcase or artwork on one side and a TV on the other. When you want the TV to not be seen, simply rotate the cabinet 180 degrees so the TV is hidden and the bookcase or artwork is visible.

  5. You can add a decorative frame around your Television to treat it as artwork. When you are not watching a TV show, you can play slideshow of family photos, famous pieces of art, or a recording of a fire burning in a fireplace.

  6. You can get a framed piece of art on a canvas to disguise your TV. The art canvas is rolled up on a tube behind the top of the frame. A motor is connected to a remote which unrolls the artwork over the TV when you want to conceal it.

  7. Under bed TV lifts are also an option, however they require lots of room in front of the bed and under the bed. The under bed TV lift works by the TV starting under the bed, then it sliding out past the foot of the bed, eventually folding up to a vertical position for watching.
