Expert TV Mounting & Wire Concealment in Oakland

Get the clean, “floating TV” look without risking damage to your home’s unique architecture. We believe the installation isn’t complete until every cable is hidden from sight. A professional mount should look like a seamless part of your room’s architecture, not an afterthought with dangling cords.

Expert TV Mounting

Whether you have a standard drywall setup in a modern condo or delicate lath and plaster walls in a historic Rockridge Victorian, we have the specialized anchors to mount your TV safely. We handle everything from 43-inch bedroom screens to 85-inch home theater displays on any surface, including brick fireplaces and concrete.

Professional Wire Concealment

Get the “museum” look. For standard walls, we route HDMI and power cables behind the drywall using code-compliant power bridge kits for a flawless finish. For solid brick or concrete walls where cutting isn’t an option, we use sleek, paintable raceways that blend perfectly with your masonry.

Soundbar & Component Installation

Audio is half the experience. We mount soundbars directly flush with your TV for a clean aesthetic. We also install hidden mounts behind the screen for streaming devices like Apple TV, Roku, or gaming consoles, ensuring your media center remains organized and 100% cord-free.

Professional Security Camera & Smart Lock Installation in Oakland

In an urban environment like Oakland, a DIY security setup often isn’t enough. Cameras mounted too low are easily tampered with, while those mounted too high miss the critical facial details needed for identification. We provide professional-grade installation that balances high-visibility deterrence with high-resolution evidence capture.

Video Doorbell Installation (Ring, Nest & Arlo)

We specialize in hardwiring and setting up Ring, Google Nest, and Arlo doorbells to combat porch piracy. We don’t just mount the device; we calibrate the motion zones specifically for Oakland’s density. This means ignoring the street traffic in busy areas like Uptown or Jack London Square, ensuring you only receive alerts for actual visitors or deliveries—not every passing car.

Outdoor Security Camera & Floodlight Mounting

For maximum perimeter protection, placement is everything. We mount floodlight and spotlight cameras at the “Goldilocks” height—typically 9 feet.

  • Tamper-Proofing: This height keeps equipment out of reach of vandals standing at ground level.
  • Optimal Angles: Unlike roof-line mounts that only capture the tops of heads, our placement ensures the lens angle captures clear facial details and license plates.
  • Secure Wiring: All cabling is shielded or routed internally to prevent line-cutting.

Smart Lock & Keyless Entry Installation

Upgrade your home’s “front line” with high-security smart locks from August, Schlage, or Yale. We ensure a perfect physical retrofit—which is critical for the older, solid-wood doors found in Rockridge and West Oakland Victorians. We also handle the software integration, syncing the lock to your smartphone so you can grant access to dog walkers or contractors remotely.

Custom Media Walls & Home Theater Installation in Oakland

From custom acoustic slat walls to Dolby Atmos surround sound, we build entertainment centers that look as good as they sound. In Oakland, where space is often at a premium, a custom media wall does double duty: it creates a stunning focal point for your home while hiding all the clutter of a modern entertainment system. Whether you are upgrading a basement in the Oakland Hills or maximizing a living room in Rockridge, we bring the cinema to you.

Custom Media Wall Installation & Design

Make your living room the best part of your house with a custom media wall. These walls turn a plain room into a high-end home theater. Whether you have a modern condo in Uptown or a classic home in the Oakland Hills, we can build a look you will love.

  • Modern Wood Slat Walls: We install beautiful wood panels on your wall. They look great and actually help make your TV sound better by reducing echoes in the room.
  • Built-In Electric Fireplaces: We can add a sleek electric fireplace right under your TV. It stays cool to the touch and makes your living room feel warm and cozy at the press of a button.
  • Floating Shelves and Cabinets: We mount shelves that “float” on the wall to hold your gaming consoles or cable boxes. This keeps your floor clear and makes the whole room look organized.
  • Hidden Wires and Cables: You won’t see a single messy cord. We hide all the power and HDMI cables inside the wall so your new media center looks clean and professional.

Home Theater & Surround Sound Installation

Turn your living room into a private movie theater. We help you get that big, cinematic sound without the mess of bulky speakers and tangled wires. From the Oakland Hills to Rockridge, we help families build the ultimate setup for movie nights and the big game.

  • In-Wall & In-Ceiling Speakers: We hide your speakers inside the walls or ceiling. This gives you amazing sound that fills the room while keeping your home looking clean and modern.
  • Perfect Sound Setup: We don’t just plug in the speakers. We test the audio in every part of the room. This makes sure the sound is balanced so you can hear every word clearly.
  • Outdoor & Whole-Home Audio: Want music on the patio or in the kitchen? We can set up speakers that work together so your favorite music follows you from room to room.
  • Easy to Use: We make it simple. We can set up your system so you only need one remote to control the sound, the TV, and your streaming apps.

Soundbar Mounting & Media Shelf Setup

Get the best sound possible without the clutter. We mount your soundbar and media shelves to give your room a clean, finished look. Whether you’re in a cozy Grand Lake apartment or a big home in Piedmont, we make sure your gear is secure and easy to use.

  • Perfectly Leveled Mounting: We mount your soundbar directly under your TV. We make sure it is perfectly centered and level so your whole setup looks like one sleek unit.
  • Sturdy Media Shelves: Need a place for your PlayStation, Xbox, or Apple TV? We install strong floating shelves that can hold your devices safely while saving space on the floor.
  • Clean Wire Management: No more “spaghetti” wires hanging down your wall. We tuck all the power cords and audio cables away so you only see the tech you love, not the messy cords.
  • Works with Every Brand: Whether you have a high-end Sonos system, a Samsung bar, or a custom audio setup, we know the right brackets and tools to get it on the wall safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I pay to mount my TV in Oakland?

In the Bay Area, professional TV mounting typically ranges from $129 to $399. The price depends on the size of the TV (a 43" is cheaper than an 85") and the wall surface. Mounting on standard drywall in a modern condo is less expensive than drilling into a brick fireplace in Montclair or handling fragile lath-and-plaster in Rockridge.

How much does it cost to have a 65-inch TV mounted?

For a standard 65-inch TV on drywall, expect to pay around $150–$250 for a professional install. If you need wires hidden behind the wall (highly recommended for a clean look) or have a specialized surface like stone or concrete, the cost may increase slightly to cover the extra labor and materials.

Do I need an electrician to wall mount a TV?

Not necessarily, but it helps! A standard handyman can hang a bracket, but they cannot legally move power outlets. If you want your TV to plug in behind the screen so no cords hang down, you need a professional who understands electrical code. Our technicians are trained to install code-compliant in-wall power bridges to achieve that "floating" look safely.

How much does it cost to have a security camera system installed?

For a professional installation of a 3-4 camera system (like Ring, Nest, or a wired DVR system), labor costs in Oakland typically range from $400 to $1,200. This varies based on whether we are running wires through an attic, drilling through stucco exteriors, or simply setting up wireless solar units.

Can I mount a TV on a wall with metal studs?

es. Many modern high-rise condos and lofts in Downtown Oakland and Uptown use metal studs instead of wood for fire safety. You cannot use standard wood lag bolts for these. We use specialized heavy-duty toggle anchors (like Snaptoggles) that can hold up to 200 lbs on metal studs, ensuring your TV is 100% secure.

Can I mount a TV on a wall with metal studs?

If you are renting an apartment near Lake Merritt or Jack London Square, we use a "minimal impact" strategy. We drill small, precise holes into the studs. When you move out, these can be easily patched with a tiny bit of spackle. It is much safer for the wall than using cheap "no-stud" hangers that can tear a large hole in the drywall.

How much does an electrician charge to install security cameras?

Licensed electricians in Alameda County often charge $150–$250 per hour. While they are great for running new high-voltage lines, they may not specialize in the low-voltage calibration (tech setup) needed for smart cameras. We specialize in both the mounting and the software configuration for a flat project rate, usually saving you money.

Does Geek Squad install security cameras?

Yes, but they primarily focus on "out of the box" wireless setups. If your installation requires custom drilling into a Victorian facade or fishing wires through a finished ceiling in a multi-story home, they may decline the job. We specialize in these complex, custom installs.

Is it better to have wired or wireless security cameras?

In dense urban areas like Oakland, wired (PoE) cameras are superior because they are not susceptible to Wi-Fi jamming or signal drop-offs. However, for renters or historic homes where drilling isn't an option, modern wireless cameras with solar panels are a fantastic, flexible alternative. We install both.

Can a handyman install security cameras?

A handyman can physically screw a camera to a wall, but they often lack the technical skills to optimize motion zones, integrate the system with your Wi-Fi, or ensure the wiring is tamper-proof. Improperly installed cameras are easy for thieves to disable.
