TV Feature Walls with Built-In Fireplaces: The Perfect Winter Upgrade for Your Lanarkshire Home

Picture this: a crisp winter evening, the lights are low, your favourite film is on, and your living room glows with the warmth of a built-in electric fire beneath a sleek, wall-mounted TV. That’s not just cosy. It’s a transformation.

If you live in Lanarkshire and are considering a home upgrade, a TV feature wall with built-in fireplace might be just the thing. At Redline Electronics, we’ve seen more and more homeowners in Hamilton, East Kilbride, and Motherwell investing in this luxurious winter setup, and for good reason.

This blog will walk you through why these designs are so popular, how to make them work in your space, and what to expect from the process.

Why Combine a Fireplace with Your TV Feature Wall?

Combining your fireplace with your TV wall isn’t just a style choice, it’s a smart one, too.

• Enhanced comfort and visual appeal: There’s nothing quite like the glow of an electric fire under your screen. It adds warmth (literally and visually) while drawing the eye to a clean, central focal point.
• Space-saving practicality: Instead of two separate features (one for heat, one for media) you get a streamlined, all-in-one installation.
• A luxury cinema vibe at home: Whether you're upgrading your lounge or finishing off a new build, this setup brings a sleek, modern touch to any room.

Key Design Elements to Consider

Planning the perfect electric fireplace TV wall means balancing function and form. Here are a few must-haves:

Heat-safe spacing

Your TV must be mounted high enough to avoid heat damage from the fire below. We calculate safe distances based on your TV size and the type of fire used.

TV-to-fire width ratio

For the cleanest finish, the width of your TV should align with the fire or float just above it. We help you choose units that complement each other visually.

Wall height and symmetry

Vertical balance matters. We’ll guide you on how to space the fire and screen so they look centred and cinematic, without overwhelming the wall.

Popular Style Options in Lanarkshire Homes

Redline has created hundreds of custom TV wall installations in Lanarkshire, tailored to all kinds of home styles. Here are a few favourites:

• Flush TV panels with recessed electric fires: Clean, minimal, and ultra-modern.
• Glossy white MDF panels with backlighting: Ideal for open-plan spaces or modern apartments.
• Matte black or concrete textures: Perfect for creating contrast in neutral rooms.
• Slatted wood panels with RGB LED strips: Adds warmth, texture, and a splash of personality.

No matter your style, we design to suit your décor and your budget.

Built-In Lighting for Warm Ambience

Lighting can make or break your feature wall. Done right, it turns a simple TV install into a statement.

LED backlighting effects

We install warm white or colour-changing strips behind your TV or within the panel structure for a soft, halo-like effect.

Control your lighting with your smartphone or smart home device - perfect for setting the mood without leaving the sofa.

Add subtle brightness for cosy evenings without overpowering your room’s natural ambience.
