What Size TV Unit Suits a Long Narrow Living Room?

What Size TV Unit Suits a Long Narrow Living Room?

In a long narrow living room, the right TV unit is usually shallow, low and moderate in width: deep enough for your devices, but slim enough to protect the walkway, and long enough to sit comfortably under the screen without running the full length of the wall. Depth is the most important measurement, because every centimetre the unit projects into the room narrows the route between seating and furniture. In this article we explain how to work out that depth, how wide the unit should be in relation to both the screen and the wall, and what height suits the shorter viewing distances common in narrow rooms. We also look at which wall to choose, why the short end wall often works better than the long side, and how rugs, lighting and wall mounting can make a slim room feel more generous. The advice is based on typical UK layouts, including terraced through lounges and flat living rooms....

How Big Is a Tall TV Unit? Standard UK Sizes Explained

A tall TV unit in the UK usually stands between 100cm and 180cm high, with widths from around 50cm to 120cm and depths from 35cm to 50cm. That range is broad because tall units do different jobs. Highboard designs lift the screen slightly for comfortable viewing from a bed, while media towers and full height storage units combine the television with shelves and cupboards in rooms where floor space is limited. In this guide we explain the common size bands, from highboards to wall systems, and how each suits bedrooms, small living rooms, snugs and rooms with raised seating. We set out approximate screen widths so you can match a unit to your television, share a simple method for working out the right shelf height from your own seated eye level, and cover the safety steps every tall unit needs, including secure wall fixing, sensible loading and checking the route into your room....
