Where did you find the metal panel for this? I'm looking for something similar to recover my hv/ac vent which is unfortunately located in the middle of the largest wall in our living room. It's a huge eyesore ad I think something like this would work great. Thanks! »

Barnhart Gallery Hi Jennino -- My first thought was instead to mount a carved teak panel an inch or two off the wall. My houzz search only brought up this, but you get the idea. It's the kind of thing you'll easily find at a Pier 1, ebay, even the nice lady in this link might do something custom for you!

Bring your dimensions and shop around for something beautiful that can do double purpose, whether it's wood, metal or ??? Yaay, a reason to go shopping!

Summit Design Remodeling, LLC We purchased this grill from www.patterncut.com. It is pattern A, 1/4" thick wood. There are several different designs to choose from and you can specify your desired size. It comes unfinished and we painted it to match the walls because we did not want to call attention to this cabinet. We also installed a magnetic catch on the inside of the door so there isn't any hardware on the front of the cabinet. Our carpenters built the frame to go around the grill and, of course, the cabinet.

In this picture, it is an AV cabinet that contains the homeowner's cable box and dvd player. We ran wires from the back of the cabinet to her TV and put an RF lens at the front of her TV so when she points her remote at the TV, it controls everything on the TV and her DVD player.

Hope this helps everyone out.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Vanessa Brunner to How to Hide Your TV Cables
The panel for this niche was ordered online, and a carpenter framed and installed the door so it's flush with the wall. The client wanted the cabinet to be virtually unnoticeable, so the panel was painted to match the wall. The inside of the cabinet is painted black, so the cords can't be seen through the panel. This space already had framed sides with enough room to create a recessed niche. If this isn't the case in your home, Miner says you can build out more wall space to accommodate a niche. Make sure to frame the space so it's a little bigger than your electronic equipment. Add a shelf, cut a hole so that the wires can feed through to the TV, hang drywall, and you're all set!
