Wall Mount for LCD/LED TV with cable box

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a wall TV mount that will hold a 22 inch LCD TV with a built in cable box holder. I did a quick google and found what I was looking for except it cost more than the TV.

Amazon.com: Innovative Americans Cable Satellite Box TV Wall Mount Kit for most 26" to 60" LCD LED Plasma TV Flat Screen with VESA 75 x 75 to 800 x 400mm, up to 19 Degrees of Tilt, For Cable, Satellite Receiver or DVR measuring up to 18" x 13" x 3.25", COMCAST, AT&T, FIOS, DISH, DIRECTV, UVerse, Time Warner, Motorola, Cisco and more: Electronics Amazon.com: Innovative Americans Cable Satellite Box TV Wall Mount Kit for most 26" to 60" LCD LED Plasma TV Flat Screen with VESA 75 x 75 to 800 x 400mm, up to 19 Degrees of Tilt, For Cable, Satellite Receiver or DVR measuring up to 18" x 13" x 3.25", COMCAST, AT&T, FIOS, DISH, DIRECTV, UVerse, Time Warner, Motorola, Cisco and more: Electronics


Although this wouldn't work because its for TV's 26-60inch. Are there any TV mount like this for a 22inch TV and cheaper than this one?

Thanks

I have 4 Cheetah mounts in my house. Ranging from a 19" monitor to a 55" plasma. Absolutely love them!

My suggestion would be buy a mount and custom rig the box. You're not going to find much made to mount both. If weight is an issue, just buy a mount made for a bigger TV...

Enjoy.

Check monoprice.com

They have the best prices on just about anything of this nature, and a huge selection.

Make sure you pay attention to the VESA numbers. Unfortunately I didn't when I bought my first one and I ended up having to return it because it didn't fit my TV.

I'm not sure now but when I bought all of mine the cheetahs were cheaper and came with a decent HDMI cable.

Buy a bigger TV than the mount won't cost more

Is there anything under your TV? Reason I ask is because it is super easy to phish (fish?) the wires through the wall and they make some awesome plates to either straight up feed them through or go pro and make a female face plate to plug in to.

I am assuming you don't want wires showing which means you have an outlet and cable receptacle behind the TV mounting location or do you just have no where to put the box? Technically, you should never run power cords throught the wall but many do.

If I were you, I would fish the wire through the wall, hide the box, get a remote eye that you discretely mount somewhere and call it a day. Even with an IR blaster, basic mount, and even a wall snake (I have used fishing string and a weight or a bent hanger), you are spending WAY less than that linked mount.

I haven't bought the TV yet or any materials for this little project. Reason why I can't get a bigger TV is because the wall in the kitchen is between the dining room wall and a window. And the width is roughly around 24 inches. I kind of wish I wired it when I re-sheetrocked the wall a couple months ago and installed it with wall plates to plug into. Currently there is a coax cable wired by the previous owner.

What I'm planning to do is install the TV using an articulate arm and install a small shelf/bracket on top for the cable box. I will install a plate behind it then fish out the wires. Regarding the power plug, I will have to install a new outlet using Romex wires. Hoping I can get a clean install, will post pictures of before and after.

Thanks guys.
