Find a TV Unit That Fits Your Screen and Your Room
A good TV unit does more than hold a screen. It hides cables, stores gaming kit and keeps remotes in one place. It also has a big effect on how your living room looks.
Size Your Unit to Your TV
Pick a unit at least 10 to 20cm wider than your television. This stops the screen looking top-heavy. Check your TV's stand width too. Some TVs have feet near each edge. These need a wide, deep top to sit safely.
Get the Viewing Height Right
The centre of the screen should sit near eye level when you're seated. For most sofas, that means a unit 45 to 60cm high. Wall-mounted TVs work with lower units, which add storage underneath.
Storage and Cable Management
- Open shelves suit set-top boxes and soundbars, which need airflow.
- Cupboards hide consoles, controllers and DVDs.
- Drawers are ideal for remotes, batteries and chargers.
- Look for rear cable holes to keep leads out of sight.
Popular TV Unit Styles
Olympia units pair white marble with a smart frame. They come in large and small sizes. Tokyo and Artwork units use rich mango wood. Oak ranges like Horner and Oakham suit traditional homes. Collington brings a reclaimed, industrial feel.
Build a Matching Media Wall
Pair your TV unit with a bookcase or display cabinet on each side. This creates a built-in look without fitted joinery. Add a matching coffee table to finish the room. Want something made to measure? Ask about our bespoke furniture.
Safety Tip
Always use the anti-tip strap supplied with your TV. Fix tall units to the wall in homes with young children.
