TV Mounting Studio Irvine: Hiding TV Wires Inside the Wall in Irvine
TV Mounting Studio Irvine covers in-wall TV wire concealment in Irvine — an in-wall rated power relocation kit and in-wall rated HDMI fished between a plate behind the TV and one near the outlet, builder-installed conduit put to use in newer homes, and slim raceways where a wall is shared, tiled or exterior.

Builder conduit in newer Irvine homes
Many homes built in Irvine since the 2000s — and nearly all recent Great Park, Portola Springs and Orchard Hills builds — came with a recessed media box at the likely TV location and a 1–2 inch conduit down to a low box or a structured media panel. Where that conduit exists, concealment means pulling cables through it rather than fishing through a closed wall.
| Home | Typical in-wall situation | Concealment approach |
|---|---|---|
| New build with media box and conduit | Conduit from TV box to a low box or panel | Pull HDMI through; power from the box's outlet |
| 1990s–2000s home | Open stud bay, no conduit | In-wall power kit and in-wall rated HDMI |
| 1970s–80s home | Fire blocks mid-wall | Drill through the block or route an adjacent bay |
| Condo shared wall | Separation assembly | Raceway on the surface instead |
| Tile or stone wall | No easy access | Raceway along the edge or route through framing at a side |
What gets pulled through
- Power — the relocation kit's recessed inlet behind the TV, fed from a short cord plugged into the outlet below.
- HDMI — in-wall rated (CL3) cable; Ultra High Speed for 4K/120 from a game console.
- Ethernet — Cat6 for a TV or streaming box that buffers on Wi-Fi.
- Soundbar connection — HDMI eARC from the TV, or optical where needed.
What the numbers show
- Upper box behind the TV A recessed box with an outlet for the TV's plug and an opening for the signal cables, hidden behind the screen.
- Lower box near the floor A matching box with a power inlet and a second opening, low on the wall near the console.
- In-wall rated power cable The kit's own cable, rated for use inside walls, connects the two boxes; an ordinary extension cord is never run inside a wall.
- HDMI cable The signal cable runs through the same stud bay and should be in-wall rated (CL2 or CL3).
- Jumper cord A short cord outside the wall plugs the lower box's inlet into a regular outlet.
- Existing outlet The kit draws power from an outlet already on the wall; adding a new outlet or circuit is work for a licensed electrician.
When concealment is not the answer
Shared walls between condo units, exterior walls with insulation and shear panels, porcelain feature walls and walls with plumbing in the bay are usually better served by a slim paintable raceway or by placing the console directly below the TV. A new outlet behind the TV, instead of a relocation kit, is separate electrical work for an electrician.
The cleanest TV wall is the one where the only visible cable is none.
In-Wall Wire Concealment — common questions
How much does in-wall wire concealment cost in Irvine?
About $99–$179 per TV in 2026 on top of the mount, at the low end where builder conduit already exists.
Can the wires be hidden in a condo?
On an interior partition, usually yes. On a shared wall, a surface raceway is the common alternative.
