Backyard TV May Require A Plasma Or LCD enclosure For Fortification.
Integrating TV’s In Backyards is Rising.
Enjoying a patio based flat panel tv in your very own home is worthwhile but you will will need either a plasma enclosure or an LCD cabinet to protect not only from the elements but from opportunist thieves.
With the economic depression biting hard last summer, many families made a decision to cut their vacations and spend the hard cash on their home to add value, now due to this increase in home improvements people see the bonus of developing outdoor living areas, as these can be used throughout the year relying on the location and country.
Individuals are extending their building into the garden and backyard as this is sometimes an un occupied space, but with a little work this can be transformed into an outdoor living space.
Creating a lounge in you garden.
One of the easiest ways is to measure the area you have set out and plan it out on a piece of scaled paper, this way you can see how it looks before you start any building work and can simply change things around.
Seating Area in your back yard; these are easily made by laying a shallow foundation of concrete, on this you can put masonry blocks to build up a seating area. Using the breeze blocks will create an extra storage area inside the seat so you can store away items that would commonly be left out and make your garden or back yard look untidy.
Remember to get the mix right between the sand and the cement, generally the mix should be 1 part cement to 3 part sand and hardly ever lay breeze blocks in temperatures less than 3 degrees Celsius, or else the water in the mix will freeze and expand causing the joint to fail.
Depending on the angle the configuration for the seating area is generally in a U shape and then in the middles of the U (the open end) a display can be mounted.
Protecting an outdoor panel
Relying on the community you may need to fortify your TV from hooligans as well as the elements.
But first things first, due to price of plasma and LCD television costs plummeting so quickly this now makes it possible for home owners to place a TV in their back yard, but a backyard Monitor needs defence from several dangers.
The first is the weather, but I hear you say that there are weather proof TVs on the market, yes that is right but unless your pockets are very deep the expense will certainly stop the renovation moving forward. So the other cheaper alternative is to use a conventional TV and put it in an outside case. These cases protect the TV and satellite boxes from the local weather and vandals.
The better LCD and plasma enclosure range provide anti vandal locks on their units which will absolutely prevent the opportunist thief from stealing your TV, these higher specified cabinets also come with thicker viewing windows up to 1/2” this protects the TV from accidental damage and even stops a solid object being thrown at it by a discouraged thief.
Over the past 20 years the author has developed a range of outdoor digital signage protective enclosures and founded LCD Enclosure Global who are the leading manufacturer of LCD monitor enclosures, they also offer anti vandal LCD enclosures that provides all the protection and security needed for outdoor use.
