You’ve done your research and settled on which TV is the right one for you. Now, why not let us help with the hard work of setting it up so it’s ready to go? If you add the Installation and Recycling Service options to your basket, along with your new TV and a suitable wall mount, our delivery Partners will deliver your new TV, set it up for you and remove and recycle your existing one
If your TV is coming directly from the supplier, we can still install it. Just give us a call on 0345 604 8835 once you’ve bought your TV.
Wall mount or pedestal?
We can set up both. Check the ‘Fitting method’ in the product specifications to see the options available to your chosen model. If you want it to be freestanding, here’s what you need to know. If you want it wall mounted, read on.
We want your installation to go as smoothly as possible so you can start binge-watching box sets straight away. The information below includes a few things to check before we arrive.
Location
Wall & bracket type
In order to know what bracket you need to buy to wall mount your TV, give your wall a gentle tap with your knuckles. If it sounds hollow it’s probably plasterboard so it’s best to go for a fixed position bracket. If the wall sounds solid when you tap it, choose either a multi-position or fixed bracket. If your wall is in poor condition, ask an expert to check the wall before booking the wall-mounted service.
Connectivity
We’ll connect your TV to the aerial and other devices like DVD players, gaming consoles or audio equipment. In order to achieve the best installation, the aerial point and electrical power supply should be roughly one metre away from the TV. If yours is further please have a compatible cable or extension lead to hand.
Accessories
Wifi
We’ll connect your Smart TV and new devices to the internet so please have your WiFi log-in details, and download any relevant apps and create any new accounts required to use them, prior to your booking slot to ensure a smooth service on the day. If your connection isn’t great, consider an additional WiFi solution.
Audio equipment
If you’ve bought a device like a soundbar or surround sound system, we can mount the soundbar on the wall next to your TV on the same day. If it requires a soundbar wall bracket please have this to hand. We will then place any additional speakers in the ideal position for your room layout.
Not sure? Bit confused? What’s WiFi?
If you aren’t sure whether your existing setup matches all that, we might not be able to wall mount your new TV on the day. If you’re not sure, give us a call on 03456 049 049 or pop into your nearest John Lewis & Partners. We’ll be happy to help.
