Instead of re-locate the power point, why not do a wall cabinet and hide them inside?

Your cabinet done? Below is what I did, get contractor to hack wall and place a 2 inch PVC pipe behind the location of my TV, the pipe lead downwards into glass covered compartment. All cables will head that direction, power sockets can all be located inside the cabinet too but mine is above the cabinet.

I've not done it but decided how to do it already. First of all, i wont hang my TV to the wall, just sit on the cabinet top, hence not much wire expose here. For the socket, i will hide inside the cabinet ( difficult to reach but still can) and make a control switch just beside the cabinet to control all the socket ( at least only one switch is visible )....Hope this is convenience for me...
Thks for the sharing anyway

No problem, glad to have things worked out. Smart move for a main control switch to avoid digging inside cabinet. Mind posting your masterpiece here sharing?

My very minimalist floating tv cabinets. Now i have this problem after 1 year ++ of usage..the cabinets is slanting down / drop a bit. You can see the gap on top of the cabinet ( which is seal with a sealant ) against the wall. It's around 15mm.
I have an 40" TV and 2 small speaker ( ard 8" x 10") on top of it. Also and Astro decoder, DVD player and Unifi modem inside the middle console.
So what can i do to make sure it wont further slanting down or worse fall down.
Anything i can do to strengthen it as well as beautified it.
Thanks for your suggestion in advance.

Probably you can add metal L angle support align with the vertical support of that cabinet. But honestly, if your cabinet is not built at least with solid wood frame, you are killing it anyways.

Good suggestion as i was thinking of some way of metal support to support it but wife say too ugly...never think of this way ..haha...
As for the wood frame..i have no idea but this installer is the one i have used for my previous house as well, so far so good...

You can try tightening the screws that connects the cabinet to the wall.

Let me find the screw first..didn't notice it as i thought it was covered somewhere...

I think i should clarify a bit, the L angle are suppose to go parallel with your cabinet. Means the vertical side is behind your cabinet. If you do, you should paint it to the matching colour.

Thanks for your clarification..i got what u meant...thks

Oh Thanks, but this was done more than 2 years ago and i cant really recall the price. Any way all this wall paper is price per roll and the price is varies with all the discount / purchase with purchase and buy 1 free 1 promo..so end up very messy..haha.
