Samsung Frame TV installation

Samsung Frame TV installation is $120 labor for any size and model, including Frame Pro. A second TV on the same visit is $60, a soundbar or shelf is $30, and in-wall cable concealment is $50 (drywall only, kit required). The price is the same on brick, concrete, drywall and plaster.

Yes. Current Samsung Frame and Frame Pro models come with the Slim Fit Wall Mount, which holds the TV flush against the wall like a picture. You only need a separate mount if you want a full-motion arm, a fireplace mount or a floor stand.

The Frame Pro hangs flush on the same Slim Fit mount, but it uses a Wireless One Connect Box. Your devices plug into the box, which can sit up to 30 feet away in the same room, so only a power cord runs to the TV. To go inside the wall, that cord needs an In-Wall Cord Hiding Kit.

If you've never done it before, it's worth getting help. Whatever your wall type, drilling holes is only part of the job. The Samsung Frame doesn't use one bracket — it uses two separate wall mounts, and they have to be aligned with each other by hand, or the TV simply won't sit on them.

Samsung includes a paper wall template, but it comes in two halves that you have to tape together exactly right. If it's off, the two mounts end up too close, too far apart or out of line — and the only fix is to take them down and mount them again.

Want to try it yourself? Here’s our step-by-step guide: how to install a Samsung Frame TV, plus tips on how high to mount a TV.

If your wall is drywall, we can run the cable inside it — as long as it's Samsung's in-wall rated One Connect cable (VG-SOCR86U, sold separately; check that it fits your model). The thin cable that comes with the TV isn't rated for in-wall use. Keep in mind that Pro models, as well as models with the Wireless One Connect Box, are powered directly by a standard 110V power cord — and that cord can't go inside the wall as is. You'll need a separate in-wall rated cable and two outlet plates: an In-Wall Cord Hiding Kit.

Also, inside the wall the cable can only run straight down: vertical studs in drywall won't let it go sideways. So decide in advance where your One Connect Box will sit if it connects to the TV by cable.

A wired One Connect Box can be hidden inside the wall, but only if the wall is deep enough. Walls in New York and Jersey City are often shallow, you may still need the box to plug in your devices, and when you move out it can mean a costly wall repair.

The One Connect Box is the external box for your Samsung Frame TV — it's where you plug in all your devices, including game consoles. It's small and barely noticeable, but some people want it out of sight.

Pros: you get not just a Frame TV, but a true picture-frame look on the wall — and you don't have to find a spot for the box.

Cons: inside the wall the cable can only run straight down, because vertical studs in drywall block it from going sideways — so plan where the wired One Connect Box will go. The wall has to be deep enough to fit the box. You may still need the box for connecting devices, and if you move or redesign the room, it can mean a costly wall repair.

Wall limits: drywall only.

Yes! Everything except the wall anchors can be reused — for the new place you'll only need new anchors for your wall type. If you've lost your TV mounts, you can find the original mounting kit or compatible alternatives online, usually from about $50 to $180.
