  1. Build Your Own Cabinet Using our TV Lift Mechanism with 12-Volt Trigger

    Are you a “Do-it-Yourself” person?  Then perhaps building your own TV Lift Cabinet and installing our lift mechanism is the best solution for you.

    One of our customers, who purchased our Uplift 3700 Lift mechanism, recently shared his project results with us.   He was able to convert a birch dresser cabinet into his own TV Lift Cabinet.  He removed the dresser drawers and installed a center compartment for his speakers.  In the back of the cabinet he installed our Uplift lift Mechanism directly behind the speaker compartment.  The end result is one impressive home-made TV Lift Cabinet!

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    This customer did, however, have a question regarding our 12-Volt Trigger feature.

    Customer Question:

    How does one use the 12-volt power outlet located on the lift mechanism?  I am trying to devise a way to get IR commands into the cabinet to activate a receiver, the lift mechanism and a 42-inch plasma TV.

    Our Answer:

    To use the 12 volt trigger you will need a 1/8” stereo jack.

  2. See Your Room Transformed!

    We know it is hard to purchase furniture online.  Will the scale of the TV lift cabinet fit in well with my living room?  Is the stain going to match my existing furniture?

    We hear these valid concerns from our customers quite frequently.  To help our customers determine if the TV lift cabinet will work for their home, we provide our customers with free wood stain samples of our cabinets.  We also provide detailed specification sheets on each of our product pages so that our customers can accurately gage whether the cabinet will fit within the space they had in mind.

    But, sometimes even that is not enough to help our customers with their decision.  They need to visually see the final result.  That is where we can step in and go the extra mile.  If our customers send in a picture of their room with room and ceiling dimensions, we can scale the desired TV lift cabinet to the room dimensions and send back the new room photo with cabinet.

  8. Dancing with the Stars Season 13 Finale Gets Underway

    And then there were three!  After 10 grueling weeks of competition, the finalists are set to take the stage tonight for the Season 13 Performance Finale. Check out the action on your TV lift cabinet, tonight at 8/7C on ABC. The three finalists are reality TV personality Rob Kardashian, former talk show host and actress Ricki Lake and Army veteran and soap opera star J.R. Martinez. The odds are in so let’s break down the competition!

    The heavy favorite is J.R. Martinez. He has performed the most consistently and according to online betting site bodog.com, the odds of Martinez winning the competition are at 1-2. However, Martinez recently twisted his ankle which could prove to be a devastating blow to his ability to compete.

    Ricki Lake comes in second place based on her odds at 2-1. Like Martinez, she has been a fan favorite since the beginning. It doesn’t hurt that her partner, Derek Hough, has taken home the coveted Mirrorball trophy in three previous seasons.

    Last but certainly not
