  • A: Currently there are five different approaches on the market to the solution of hiding or masking a flat screen television.

    1.A roll-up: 

    This approach cannot utilize original art and requires viewing the screen inside a picture frame. It also requires the viewer to be standing for perpendicular viewing.


    2. A lift:

     The television fits inside a cabinet and either lifts out or the cabinet slides to the side or above the flat screen. This system requires a separate piece of furniture for the screen to pop out from or requires that the viewer watches the TV with the art above or to the side. These systems can cost from $4,000 to $8,000.


    3. A two way mirror: 

    Difficulties include compromised reflection from daylight or lights in the room at night, TV's have specially finished glass to cut reflection whereas the two way mirror no option to tilt the Flat Screen for perpendicular viewing - and the viewer is watching TV in a picture frame. Occasionally we will install two way mirrors with the TVCoverups product in order to access the benefits listed in #5 below.


    4. Framing the TV: 

    The viewer is not only watching TV in a picture frame, but when the TV is off, there is a black hole in the focal point of the room.


    5. Our TVCoverup:

     Any framed art or mirror can be used to cover the flat screen. The viewer has the freedom of full articulating arm hardware, allowing for perpendicular viewing from anywhere in the room. Our system provides a total black theater viewing enclosure, eliminating ceiling reflections and picture lighting.
Our TVCoverup offers the freedom to use any framed art or mirror to cover the TV. With full articulating arm hardware, you can enjoy perpendicular viewing from anywhere in the room.

  • A: Costs for our standard-sized auto and manual units can be found on the bottom of this page.

    Our standard sizes are sent knockdown with assembly instructions.

    Alternatively, you can opt for the box and hardware to come fully assembled for an additional charge.
