It is worth noting that modern TVs without any additional design look good and easily fit into the design of modern rooms. But, despite this, the TV in the frame on the wall is gaining popularity everywhere. The question arises: if modern household appliances already look good, why frame it?
Important! Despite the fact that thin TVs themselves look harmonious and stylish, using a frame, they can be designed in such a way that they will be perceived as an integral element of the decor of the room. There are many examples when LCD panels decorated with picture baguettes look like a mirror or a picture.
Among the reasons for decorating the TV with a frame, the following should be highlighted:
- The need to fit the TV in the classic interior design.
- The need to close the gap between the wall and the TV panel, without limiting the circulation of warm air from the back of the equipment.
- The need to hide the mounting bracket and cables.
- The need to create a stylistically harmonious and homogeneous interior, where all the elements fit and complement each other.
Important! So that in general your idea is successful and allows you to give the interior a complete and pleasant look, also use the following tips:
Picture frames as an element of decoration are used not only in creating a classic interior. For example, there are frames of laconic form without unnecessary frills. Such a decorative solution is suitable for interiors decorated in a minimalist style.

Consider a few ideas for framing TV panels:
- White panels for the wall. With the installation of decorative frames increases the level of security. Pets and small children do not have access to the mount and wires behind the panel on the wall.
- Black panels ennoble. White walls give us a feeling of freedom and lightness, and a black frame makes a contrasting emphasis on the TV.
- Neon lights. Indirect lighting in the interior is a great option to create a relaxed and relaxed atmosphere in the room. The LED strip is easily mounted on the back of the frame and sheds light behind the TV. Such a panel will only emphasize the beauty of the TV screen. In order not to be mistaken in the choice of lighting devices of this type, read our review "How to choose LED lamps?".
- The glossy surface is relevant in the design of modern interiors. The glossy white frame looks bright and spectacular in contrast to the striped wallpaper.
- Metal frame. Shine of metal always looks noble and magnificent.Instead of a frame made of wood, you can choose the cold beauty of metal.
- For those who want to decorate their living room in authentic Japanese style or other Eastern countries, modern household devices such as a TV can disrupt the overall composition of the room. And the TV in the frame on the wall can harmoniously fit into the interior of this style.
- The room looks good in which the overall interior design is combined on the basis of similar shapes and textures of the window frame, fireplace, doors and TV frame.
Nuances when choosing a finished frame
First of all, you should know that making a frame on a TV is quite simple, and you will probably do it yourself with a small set of tools. A correctly made frame is easily removed without causing harm to the TV.
Important! An improperly installed TV frame can cause the sound to rattle. With the correct installation of the frame on the TV panel, a damper gasket is inserted between the LCD TV case and the frame, eliminating the occurrence of chatter even at a high sound volume level.
If the wrong choice and incorrect installation, the frame can cause the panel to overheat. Therefore, when setting the frame, it must be remembered that the gap between the back of the TV and the wall should be at least 10 cm. Usually this distance is enough for warm air to rise up unhindered.
Framework Options:
- Wooden baguette has considerable weight, which must be added to the weight of the TV, choosing mounting hardware. On average, the framing mass does not exceed 3 kg.
Important! Given the increased weight of the structure, before starting mounting on the wall, make sure the strength of the wall itself. If the wall is made of concrete, it can be mounted on standard dowels, which usually come with a bracket. If the wall is covered by a thick layer of old plaster, it is more reliable to use elongated anchor bolts when mounting the bracket.
- The framing profile can be normal or reverse. If the ordinary view is like a funnel, then the views with the opposite profile - on the contrary, have a middle protruding forward, and the edges of the frame are adjacent to the wall.
Important! It is better to use the reverse profile if you are watching TV not from one place, but from different points of the room. In addition, this profile allows you to more effectively hide the wires in the frame.
Regardless of the type of finished baguette you choose, the purchase price will be high. So why not try to design your own TV and save money?
Ceiling baseboard TV frame
Ceiling polyurethane baguette for sale is presented in a wide range of models that differ in size, the presence of patterns or their absence. In addition, such products are distinguished by cost.
Important! The difference in price in this case is not random, but depends on the density of polyurethane. Given the small size of the frame, we buy baguettes more expensive and better.
To make a TV frame, you need the following:
- Polyurethane skirting board with dimensions corresponding to the standards of the TV panel.
- Glue for baguettes or “liquid nails”.
- Water-based tinted acrylic paint.
- Sharp knife.
- The miter box for cutting the skirting board at the right angle.
- Foam brushes or sponge for painting the frame.
Frame manufacturing instruction:
- We cut the skirting board into parts of the right size, taking into account the required angle, usually 45 degrees.
- We apply glue to the ends of the corner sections, we connect all the details into a closed structure.
- After the glue dries, we check the joints for cracks. We fill them again with glue and level them.
- We install the TV on the wall, we attach a frame to it.
- On the reverse side we mark the perimeter of the panel.
- On the back of the frame, glue the trim along the marked perimeter line, which will serve as the frame locks.
- We paint.
- After drying, we put the finished frame on the TV.
Important! The main advantage of the polyurethane construction is its negligible weight.But there is a drawback - this design is fragile and requires careful handling.
Frame for tv on wood wall
A similar design can be assembled from wood:
- Instead of polyurethane, you can use even wooden blocks or a wide wooden floor skirting. These skirting boards are often found in construction stores.
- To work with wood, instead of baguette glue, we use PVA carpentry glue or “liquid nails”.
Important! The weight of the resulting structure will be significantly more than the mass of the product from polyurethane, but this drawback is overlapped by the significant strength of the frame.
The sequence of steps for making a frame from wood is the same as for a frame from a ceiling plinth.
