At Moss of Bath, we understand that selecting the right TV support solution is crucial for both aesthetics and functionality. As installers with over 60 years of experience in Bath and the South West, we’ve helped countless homeowners make informed decisions about TV placement. Here’s our comprehensive guide to help you choose between a TV stand, cabinet, or wall mounted bracket as we move into 2025.
Understanding Your Space
The best option for your TV – whether that’s a stand, cabinet or wall mounted bracket – depends on several key factors.
Room Layout: Consider viewing angles, natural light sources, and available floor space. In period properties, like many in Bath, architectural features can influence placement decisions.
Usage Patterns: Think about how you use the room. If you frequently rearrange furniture, a TV stand offers flexibility. For fixed viewing positions, wall brackets excel.
Storage Needs: Media equipment, gaming consoles, and other devices might require additional storage space, making TV cabinets particularly practical.
TV Stands: Versatility and Style
TV stands remain a popular choice for 2025, and for good reasons. They’re portable, require no wall fixing, and come in various designs. We stock carefully selected options from Alphason and Spectral, offering both contemporary and traditional styles.
Key Benefits:
- Easy repositioning for room layout changes
- No wall mounting required – ideal for rented properties
- Often include cable management solutions
- Suitable for any wall type, including listed building interiors
TV Cabinets: Storage and Organisation
TV cabinets provide comprehensive storage solutions whilst maintaining a clean, organised look. Just Racks and Spectral offer excellent options that combine practicality with style.
Advantages:
- Concealed storage for media devices
- Clean, uncluttered appearance
- Additional surface space for decorative items
- Built-in ventilation systems for equipment
Wall Mounted Brackets: Space-Saving Solutions
TV wall mounted brackets have become increasingly sophisticated for 2025. Vogel’s range includes options for various TV sizes and mounting needs. Our installation team has extensive experience mounting TVs in both modern homes and listed buildings.
Benefits:
- Maximises floor space
- Adjustable viewing angles
- Clean, contemporary look
- Secure mounting with hidden cables
Professional Installation Matters
Whilst some mounting solutions are marketed as DIY-friendly, professional installation ensures safety and optimal positioning. Our installation team brings decades of experience, particularly valuable when working with period properties in Bath’s historic environment.
Bespoke Solutions
Sometimes standard solutions don’t quite fit your needs. We can arrange bespoke options, creating custom solutions that perfectly match your space and requirements. This might include modified cabinets, custom-built stands, or specialised mounting solutions for unusual spaces.
Making Your Choice
We recommend considering:
- Room dimensions and layout
- Viewing distance and angles
- Equipment storage needs
- Wall construction (particularly relevant in period properties)
- Future flexibility requirements
