TV & Media Units

You'll want at least 30 cm clearance on each side for ventilation and access, plus 50 cm in front for comfortable viewing—ideal for your average British lounge, ensuring your setup breathes easy without crowding the room.

As a general rule, television units should be at least as wide as your TV screen, if not slightly wider, to provide visual balance and prevent the unit from appearing too narrow beneath the display. For a 55-inch screen, this typically means a unit of at least 120cm to 140cm in width. FW Homestores lists the dimensions of all television units in our collection so you can match the width to your screen size precisely.

While our TV media units prioritise sturdy shelving over extension, the soft-close drawers and lift-up mechanisms glide with whisper-quiet precision, thanks to premium runners that mimic the reliability of a well-oiled London Underground door.

Well-designed television units should include integrated cable management solutions such as cut-outs in the back panel, internal routing holes between compartments, and access points at the rear for plug-in cords. Without these features, cables quickly become tangled and visible. FW Homestores' television units collection includes models with practical cable management built in, helping you maintain a clean, organised entertainment space.

Most of our tv media units uk accommodate screens up to 100 inches comfortably, with wider models like the Bergen handling 120 inches or more—measure your wall space first to match your viewing dreams perfectly.

Choosing between open and closed storage in wooden tv units depends on what you're storing and how tidy you want the unit to look day-to-day. Open shelving is ideal for items you access frequently — gaming consoles, remotes, speakers — while closed cupboards are better for hiding media clutter, routers, and cables. Many of FW Homestores' wooden tv units feature a combination of both, giving you the flexibility to organise your living room effectively.

Absolutely—every tv and media storage unit features FSC-certified oak or walnut, harvested responsibly to support British woodlands, arriving in recycled packaging from our London warehouse for a guilt-free glow-up.

Wooden tv units are perfectly suited to positioning beneath a wall-mounted TV, creating a clean, floating arrangement that keeps the screen at an ideal viewing height while providing storage at a lower level. Ensure the unit's depth is sufficient to accommodate your media devices comfortably. FW Homestores' wooden tv units are designed with this arrangement in mind, offering proportions that work well with a range of screen sizes.

We keep it simple with clear instructions and tools included, but if you'd rather not lift a finger, our partners provide optional assembly starting at £50—free mainland delivery gets it to your door regardless.
