- In this video I am continuing my home makeover by showing how to wall mount computer monitors and show how to hide the wires, cords and cables by running them through the wall.
The floating desk build: • DIY Floating Desk with...
This triple monitor setup turned out very clean with a very minimal feel. The monitors are wall mounted and all cables run through the wall. This leaves a very open and clean workspace perfect for any gaming setup or productivity workstation.
If you have any questions please let me know in the comments

Thanks for watching and all of the great feedback! If you want to see my progress update here is the video: th-cam.com/video/35yOjdlqktc/w-d-xo.html
I need some help, my desk is 6 inches thick, and all the monitor clamps on amazon say they clamp up to desks 3 inches thick. Would it be ok to use the clamp on my 6 inch desk even though it only holds 3? Or am I out of luck?
I really enjoy what you have done and has given me ideas on my own set up. I am hoping to get started on this coming week! I will post my own videos when I get them done! Thank you for the awesome ideas and videos!
Which mounts did you use?
I am truly amazed how clean your set up is😍 I think you have earned the cleanest PC set up of all time😍 unfortunately for me it’s a lot of work to simply drill holes and I truly suck at wall mounting stuff😭 so instead my PC desk set up is very similar to yours except the wires are hiding behind a metal wall cover😎👍 and it matches the color of my wall which is white like yours I am using a laptop docking station with triple Samsung 120 Hz monitors they are bezel less so that way it looks like a Ultra Wide curved monitor😍 so what I did was I removed the left and the right leg stands only the middle has the leg stand the other two is using a wall mounting bracket that is connected to the middle monitor I can assure you it will not tilt over😁👍 because the legs are spread wide long and of course I am using a wired keyboard and mouse for the best gaming experience😍 after all the set up I made it I only spent $500 in general and it’s way better than purchasing a overpriced Ultra Wide curved monitor I guarantee Ultra Wide curved monitors will never succeed if they continue to sell them at $1000🤦♂️ my way is more affordable😉👍 yes I am using a cat seven gold plated ethernet cable which is connected through the laptop docking station I can finally start my TH-cam/twitch career😍 also for those who are wondering what laptop i have all you need to know is I’m using the Lenovo yoga 2020😍its powerful enough to play some games at 120 FPS😁👍 I shall wait for your reply.
bad monitors thou
Unbelievable easy to do this in walls in the US. We have everything isolated or from stones (The Netherlands) Great job!
Same in UK 😂 for older homes anyway
Jep, niet/not mogelijk/possible
At the beginning I was like wtf is this shit, no visible cables, then I got it...we are too European to have cardbox houses :D
@IM Saucy lol same in the Caribbean. Concrete houses. This DIY was dope though.
Well legally no
only works if ur walls are made of Paper xD.... impossible in Germany
Yeah... absolutely no drywall in Germany /s
auch übelst unnötig bei uns, einfach kabel legen und kabelkanal in wandfarbe drüber, fertig ^^
not only germany, it s like the entire world
@@loryt690 besides usa
What is your wall made of?
This absolutely has “modern dad” energy. With so many people working from home, but still looking for projects to do around the house lol 10/10 very wholesome
As someone who struggles immensely with cable management, this warms my soul (:
Haha thanks!!!
THIS IS THE MOST SATISFYING VIDEO I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME!
Thank you, perfectly executed job.
Thanks I really appreciate it!
I greatly appreciate the clean cable consolidation. I’ve been a sound engineer for about 15 years now, and one thing that drives me up the wall is a super messy cable job, especially if it’s a permanent installation. Great work!
"Inch" and "Paper Walls" triggers every EU-Members like me
yep
true
Whats paper walls?
@@Tpecep drywall...
: ) yep, in a real House, there is no way to reproduce this.
Your dedication to this project and the result make me jealous. Good job!!!
This is a DREAM!! Excellent job!!
Thanks I love it so far!
In Modern Living Rooms Everyone Using "SoundProof Curtains" That Stops Outside Noise by 80% (25 Db) Tested. Check Here: livesoundproof.com/best-soundproof-curtains/
That is what you call CLEAN! The cable management is absolutely amazing! Those clips are so useful. I use them too!👍
Be great to see a video like this for those of us who live in older houses with brick or lath & plaster walls!
Lot's of people saying that this is impossible to do in most European homes. No it's not. I'm a Dane and although I live in an apartment with drywall, it is a rental, so cutting holes in the walls isn't exactly an option for me. What is an option though, is to build an extra wall on top of that wall (I've done so using pallet wood and effectively sit in a corner of two massive pallet walls) and that is also an option in houses with stone walls. Yes, you lose a little bit of space, but it's a negligible amount as cables aren't exactly taking up several 30 centimeters worth of space. I'd be surprised if you have to use even 15. Build an accent wall and route your cables through that. Boom, seamless cable management and a set of floating monitors for the ultimate, clean and modern setup
Hope you checked with your landlord first, most leases or rental agreements require approval first for any building inside of the unit/home/duplex/flat/condo/apartment.
Even if you have solid brick walls, this is a good technique for mounting multiple monitors side by side. You can play with the positioning of the monitor arms/brackets to get them aligned nigh perfectly. If you get new monitors in the future with different dimensions, you don't need to re-drill the wall, you just need to adjust the position of the brackets on the plank, which would be a lot easier.
This setup is truly a work of art.
Yes!!! As a fellow OCD’er, this build makes me very happy. Great work man! Love the very clean look, and the triple monitor setup is legit.
Killer looking setup so far, man! Definitely using this as an inspiration for my new office build.
I love this, great vid! as a guy that loves working on his house this is more than satisfaction to watch amazing ppl executing so clean and professional works like this one! THUMBS UP!
Thanks I really appreciate it and hope all your projects go well!
This came out looking so clean. A great foundation to build up.
Absolutely spectacular install. The board to the wall was a great idea!!
God bless you brother, this video somehow calmed my anxiety
We live in brick houses in the EU, cant hide the cables like that :(
Just chase the wall, put a PCV pipe in the groove you made that has a a small diameter and plaster over it. It's not that hard, really isn't
use a faux wall, put it 3-4" in front of old wall for a seamless clean look.
@@elodgubcsi The idea is valid, but only applies if you own the house or appartment. Else the landlord can get really picky. Also the wife-approval for doing this is really hard to obtain.
@@justinbailey6515 could you use cm or dm? i hat " hahaha. just joking
you need a hammer drill to be able to hide cable like shown in the vid lmao
Wow the cable management of this is topnotch
and my perfectionist soul was very satisfied watching this.
This is badass! I have a similar setup, except I do have a 32" monitor in the above-middle to watch movies/videos. My MIC and recording accessories are in a separate setup with a second desk area. The LED lights add a magnificent touch to the project. I did and do not regret it! Thanks for sharing this...got me even more pumped up with my studio!
You have so much skill and forethought! The whole measuring demonstration part was so well thought out. Impressed and subscribed
Well, I'll definetely check this video again soon, when I decide to buy new monitor stands for my wall!
Tech Teacher, you're getting a new subscriber today. I have done desk mounted double for work purposes, but 3 in the air with no wires hanging, and utilizing measuring tape, squares, and your planning was just as much work than actually getting them onto the wall. Very knowledgable and succint. I have no need for 3 monitors, but after watching this, I kind of want 3 monitors hiding on my wall. For all you EU and other countries who don't use sheetrock, in the US, this is how you run cable from the attic or down a wall, every time, no matter what. I do like using those clear and orange clamps instead of wire caps for electrical work. Other than that, 2 handed high 5! Your work is real nice!
Thanks!!! I appreciate the kind words!!
Possibly the best video I have seen on TH-cam. Simply magnificent!
WOW THEY'RE LIKE FLOATING OMG 😱😱😱 RYAN YOU'VE DONE IT AGAIN
Thanks!
I was wanting to do this months ago but had no idea where to start. Going to try this now.
Awesome to hear! Hope it goes well!
Chefs kiss on this setup so far!! I'm vested in seeing the finished product.
It looks awesome! Good Job! I can see how proud you are!
Great video, cable management is super clean. Also nice Cleetus shirt, Hell yeah brother!!
Hell yeah brother!! Thanks I appreciate it!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING VIDEO 10000/10 Not only were your video skills amazing your explanation was even better I personally have the same idea going for my build and this video helped me learn a lot Thank you so much man I hope you enjoy the setup looks great! Now just wait till you want to add a external power button so you don’t have to bend down to turn on your computer haha
Thank you so much. I used all the techniques and tools you used in this video to create my dream floating triple monitor setup!!!
When I first saw this video, I was like oh no, please don't tell me you're instructing people to run power cables through drywall. Extremely glad you did this correctly!
Ficou incrível, acho que é difícil de fazer aqui no Brasil, mas ainda sim é um lindo trabalho.
That setup is beautiful, nice job! I've gotten used to having one monitor in portrait mode (handy for source code). I'd love to build something similar to this.
Thanks! I really like your idea of the portrait mode. One of our robotics students likes to use a portrait mode momitor for coding.
this is soooo clean.... the best ive seen yet
Very Nice, Neat, Organized and Clean! I really liked your craftsmanship on this project!
Ayyy nice Freedom Factory shirt! Do it for Dale. Amazing setup man
Great vid looking forward to the full setup
Should be coming soon! Thanks!
Yeah.....you're awesome, subscribed. I loved everything from your approach to the explanation, and of course the finished project came out stellar. And the way you curved the outer portions was really well done. Looking forward to exploring the channel and seeing what else you've done!
Wow, big congrats, looks very clean.
love the Freedom Factory shirt! Hell ya brother!!
Hell ya brother!! Cant wait for the track grindings and construction shirt!
Great work. I did a similar office project a few years back. I built my desk from 16'x1.5'x2.5" cedar planks and topped it with 3/4" tempered glass. I ran 4 inch pvc piping through my walls for cabling. It's beautiful but I can't put in a monitor arm because I butted the glass to the wall. I think I will try your wall mount route for my ultra wide and secondary 27".
Sound like an awesome setup.
Man, I'm just loving your setup, awesome job!
One of the cleanest desk builds I’ve seen. Looks great
Thanks! More to come soon
Looks great! Love the channel. Look into bezel strips from Asus and others that make it appear as if it’s one giant display. I use it on my triple monitor sim setup. Love the Cleetus shirt btw 👍🏻
Cleeter! Great idea I will look into that.
Imagine you need bring this to a LAN party!
Man, that's a really clean work, i really like it and it's low cost. Amazing. Keep going !
I did my triple monitor setup in a similar way and i did put rgb led strips on top and the bottom edge of the mounting board for extra coolness
You just helped me out a TON thanks!
Ratio
I watched this whole thing even though I am not doing this anytime soon lol. Great video!
Thanks I appreciate it!
OCD for sure, and I can really appreciate that. Your videos are excellent and I can tell you spend a lot of extra time on recording your projects to help share them with us. Thanks for posting!
Thanks I really appreciate that. Thanks for watching!
So fresh and So clean
Seeing this i would love to have room in the walls instead of bricks/cement to run cables
You probably get far better sound proofing with those solid walls than we get with our drywall in the US. I can hear every footstep in the house.. annoying.
@@dankdubb I rent an old house that was built in 1910 so i can hear my neighbor. But houses from 1960 and up have really good soundproofing here
Me with a solid concrete wall: ._.
That makes things difficult
Don’t know your skill set, dedication or budget but I built a false wall (non structure) in-front of a wall that had a 24” beam that I couldn’t pass cables through. Makes running cables insanely easy because I put the studs sideways giving me larger studs to mount onto as-well.
Aaron Daniels well that could work, but I don’t wanna make my room even smaller and pay even more money just so i can’t see a 20cm cable channel I guess :D
@@mylodzn8842 then dont make the fake wall gap that fucking big or dont do this video :D
Awesome this is exactly what i was looking for to keep my triple monitor setup tight.
Nice work man, well done. (so satisfying to get something done well that comes out exactly what you wanted)
nice job. i'm renting now so i don't want to put any holes into the wall.
Thanks and I dont blame you you this is pretty permanent.
@@ThatTechTeacher427 you typed "you" 2 times. :)
@@oftenkill No way i didnt noticed it 😯
I wish I would of seen this video before I did mine lmao
Hope it came out ok
@@ThatTechTeacher427 for the most part, the 2 side panels are lower then the middle by a fraction of a inch
This is truly outstanding, super clean.
this is a beauty set up so far
This is so easy on your paper houses... I live in Germany and our walls are made of bricks which makes this impossible.
just spend some money to buy woods. you can drill wood to brick/cement. its not impossible
i would have left some space on the right of the desk to place the computer on the desk. that way it looks much cooler with clean rgb computer
Good idea. I am either going to wall mount the pc or hang it from the bottom of the desk to save space on the desk top. Its a shame to hide all this RGB lol
Having the computer itself on the desk seems to go counter to the whole “OCD-inspired clean-desk look”.
Or am I missing something?
Of course, there’s also the fact that I’ve never been a fan of all that RGB “bling-bling” on or in a computer.
I admire the work and artistic endeavor, but it’s not for me... kinda like strawberry jam.
And, I’ve ALWAYS preferred the CPU/case to live on the floor; desk-top space is too valuable to waste on a non-storage box.
On my “experiment/test” rig that I use to test CPU, RAM, drives, boards, etc, I DO have LED strips surrounding the inside edge so I get plenty of light. That’s to let me see well.
This video/setup/clutter free look is beautiful. Very well done, sir.
Thanks I appreciate it! I need to be organized to get anything done lol
Looks so clean love it
you have hollow walls? where do you live? ive only ever seen houses with either solid concrete walls or brick walls with isolation over it
General housing in north America is wood framing with insulation and drywall and some brick here and there. Commercial/industrial (apartments, hospitals, school, office and wear houses) buildings will be mostly steal frame which then means behind that is concrete slabs unless they didn't feel the need to insulate the walls (usually ware houses and stair cases). However some apartments may end up being wood finish, I believe it's something about 2 or 3 floors max with wood frame?
Far too few “thumbs up”. Folks don’t seem to appreciate good work these days.
Thanks I appreciate it
Brilliantly executed , super project of home office.
Brilliant! Looks AWESOME!
wouldn't recommend cant punch your monitor without it falling
cable management are great but replacing broken cables will be hassle scenario
It's pretty easy to run a new one by taping it to the old one.
Dude seemed like a genuinely nice happy person and no way I couldn't subscribe. Keep up the videos! You'll go far
This is Therapy, thank you for making a video about this, cheers 🎉
omg that looks so nice! but... how can you use your mouse without a mouspad xD
Yep, I was about to comment that too. That wood aaaa makes me cringe man
@@ayyorta same dude xD
the cursor can be easily lost on all that monitors lol
That is sometimes a problem.
definition of out of sight out of mind. still extremely impressive
So basically he just put the cables behind the wall by drilling holes like this: *|>*
Could have just gotten an ultrawide. Confused by this.
its not the same.
Ultrawide can be very annoying for many programs and workflows. Also pretty bad for gaming in my opinion, not a big fan
Its a lot easier to put specfic apps on a different monitor then to constantly fight with "snapping" and resizing windows to fit next to each other like you would on an ultra wide. And 3 monitors of this size is probably cheaper than a mega ultra wide.
Beautiful, love the minimalstic look
Bravo! Well done. Inspiring for the office I’m building. Keep it up
tech source edit a wire in here: im goig to be judgy that one wire *that he edited* is annoying so thats no stars
There just one painful thing about this video, and that is having a PC on a carpeted floor. That's a cardinal sin and it pains every enthusiasts soul
I understand your pain and will be fixed in a future office setup video
... none of my computers have bottom ventilation holes, so no problem being on my carpeted floors. 😁
Now my network stuff is stacked-and-racked inside a closet... the stack is four-way ventilated, with a cold-air vent from the house HVAC supplying chilled and filtered air, with hot-air return at the ceiling.
The 12-drive RAID Monster lives in the same cave, er, closet
@@ernestgalvan9037 That's fair, although generally speaking, I think having your computer on the carpet is a nono seeing as you kick up a decent amount of dirt/dust by walking around. But I can see how it is necessary in some scenarios with smaller desks.
@@yemsuh ... weekly swipe with a good Dyson cordless vac takes care of dust bunnies.
P.S. those Dyson vacs are beasts at cleaning! Expensive, but worth every penny, especially if you find a good re-conditioned.
That is absolutley Awesome! Love the design!
Absolutely incredible ❤ Liked and Subscribed. Can’t do this in my rental but I am saving for a tiny home and absolutely will have this built it.
I'll do my bit right away, I'm watching this video from Russia and I don't want to make a farce, which has been coming from all places lately, but as a person who accidentally came across this video in the recommended one, I liked this cable management and I took some of the things that are present on the video here, undoubtedly I will put myself into service and try to do this in the future.
This is fantastic!!! I love these videos!
I totally love the design of the desk!!
i like it :) and for the people complaining you can have a big piece of woodenplate to hide the cables and have that mounted on a concrete wall
This is fantastic! Truly, great job! Going to steal a few ideas!
I like the way you do bro, its just awesome, you dont need the ultimate of technology to build this I realy like
I love the freedom factory shirt, Dale would be proud!
Nicely done. I need to keep this in mind when I remodel my office.
Thanks for the inspiration! , did it myself and very happy with the setup!!
I love it supper clean!! Once I get my house hopefully soon in AZ I will do this great job..
This is a fantastic setup! Thanks for sharing
KENT STATE! Love it.
