The modern TV is bigger and better than ever. But let's be honest: You don't always want a massive black screen dominating your beautiful living room or bedroom.

Interior designers have a secret weapon for this: The Hidden TV Lift.

Whether you want your TV to rise majestically from a cabinet or descend silently from the ceiling, we have a mechanism that fits. Here is how to choose the right one for your space.


1. The "Pop-Up" (For Cabinets & Foot-of-Bed)

This is the classic "James Bond" look. The mechanism is installed inside a custom cabinet (or even built into the foot of your bed). With one click of a wireless remote, the TV rises silently.

The Classic Pop-Up (LINACT-TL-06-1000)

Our standard unit is a workhorse. It fits neatly inside joinery and is perfect for placing a TV in front of a window without blocking the view permanently.

  • Fits TVs: 32" to 70"
  • Operation: Wireless Remote (Up/Down)
  • Best for: Living room cabinets and bedroom units.

Need a bigger size? For massive screens (50" to 80"), we can supply the LINACT-TL06-1300 with a longer stroke upon request. Contact our office for lead times and dimensions.

⭐ Upgrade Pick: The 360° Swivel

Have an open-plan home? The LINACT-TL-06-1000-S (Swivel) lets you pop the TV up and then manually rotate it 360°. Watch the news from the kitchen, then swivel it around to watch a movie from the sofa.

2. The "Vertical Drop" (For Ceilings & Views)

This unit lowers the TV straight down from above. While it is often used to hide a TV completely inside a ceiling void, it is also perfect for surface mounting.

Why use it?

  • Preserve the View: Mount it above a window so the TV drops down only when you need it, keeping your ocean or garden view clear.
  • The Fireplace Solution: Perfect for mounting in front of a fireplace. When the fire is off, drop the TV down. When the fire is on, lift the TV up out of the heat.

3. The "Flip-Down" (For Limited Height)

Don't have much space inside your ceiling? The Flip-Down unit folds the TV flat against the ceiling surface (or into a shallow recess) and hinges it down for viewing.

Important Note: On all Flip-Down models, when the unit is in the closed (up) position, the TV screen faces down towards the floor.
