Review on πŸ”Œ Optimized Legrand-Wiremold CMK70 Power Kit for Flat Screen TV Cords and Cables by Rodney Harris

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is good, but carefully check the suitability for your wall!

Thought it was a minor thing and it might be on some walls. But our living room, like many others, requires mounting the TV on an outside wall. In fact, the wall to the right of the electrical box is very close to the outside. After finding two 16" studs (where I installed the TV mount), I drilled my first hole with a hole saw about 7" to the left of the left stud. Haha! For some reason the builders decided to add an extra stud about 6 inches from the next. This is how my first big hole was created, which could not be used and had to be patched. ", obviously. I kept drilling holes. I drilled a new pair of holes that I thought should work, but I couldn't get the wires through the insulation, wiring, and pipes. Finally, I drilled the final fifth hole , this time just drilled a low hole and checked that I can fish it out to the correct height for the high hole before drilling it, luckily I didn't accidentally drill a pipe or live wire I could hurt myself doing it it's up to me but then again i would say unless you have built a house there is always a risk of the wires being past the drill sites so you need to BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL this is a great product but before you do it I would recommend two things: 1. If you put it on I don't have a really good nail finder (I've never used one that worked b (it's good except for magnets finding nails), tr rub a few nails across the width of the hole saw to make sure there are no nails in your hole. That way when you hit a bolt you only have one nail hole to fill in instead of a 3 inch hole. If you are dealing with an outside wall, consider using the solution outside the wall instead. They have paintable ones so you can really make them almost invisible and save a lot of time wasting tearing up the wall.
