Where Should You Actually Mount Your TV? A Room-by-Room Guide – Auztech Security

 


Not sure where your TV should go? Auztech Security's room-by-room guide to TV wall mounting height, angle, and placement across your Melbourne home.

The right spot for a TV isn't the same in every room — and getting TV wall mounting wrong means either a sore neck or a TV that never quite feels right in the space.

Living Room

Eye level while seated on your couch is the target, not the centre of the wall. For most standard couches and screen sizes, that puts the centre of the TV noticeably lower than people expect.

Bedroom

Bedroom viewing is usually from a reclined position, so the ideal height sits higher than a living room mount — measured from where your eyes actually land lying against the pillows, not sitting upright.

Kitchen or Dining Area

Here it's about sightlines across the room rather than one fixed seating position, so a tilting or full-motion bracket often works better than a fixed one, letting you adjust the angle from different spots.

Home Office

Screen glare from windows is the biggest issue in home offices — positioning matters as much as height, and a slight tilt or anti-glare consideration is worth discussing before mounting.

Outdoor Entertaining Area

If you're mounting outdoors, weatherproofing and bracket rating matter more than exact height — a standard indoor bracket and TV aren't built for Melbourne's weather swings.

The One Constant: Concealed Cabling

Wherever the room, power and HDMI cables running exposed down the wall undo a clean mount. We run cabling inside the wall or through a discreet channel as standard, regardless of which room it's in.

Not Sure Which Bracket Type You Need?

We assess your wall type, room, and viewing habits before recommending fixed, tilting, or full-motion — and it pairs well with a digital TV antenna check or home theatre upgrade in the same visit.

The Best Home Security Camera System in 2026: An Installer’s Honest Comparison

Image
  The Best Home Security Camera System in 2026: An Installer’s Honest Comparison Every “best security camera” article you’ve read was written by someone who has never drilled a hole in a wall. They rank cameras by spec sheet. We install these systems in Melbourne homes every week, then get called back when something doesn’t work — which teaches you very different things about which cameras are actually good. This is a straight comparison of the four brands we install: Dahua , Hikvision , HiLook and Uniview . We stock all of them. We have no reason to push you toward one. First: The Thing Nobody Tells You The brand matters less than the install. A $2,000 camera system mounted at the wrong height, aimed at the wrong angle, with the recorder sitting in plain sight by the front door, is worse than an $800 system installed properly. The three things that actually determine whether your cameras identify an intruder: Height and angle. Cameras mounted too high see the top of a head. 2.5-3...
