About This Tool

So, you’ve got a new TV and you’re ready to mount it on the wall. Cool. But before you start drilling holes and hoping for the best, let’s talk about height. Mounting your TV at the right height isn’t just about looks—it’s about comfort. Nobody wants to crane their neck all evening or feel like they’re watching from the floor. That’s where this TV wall mount height calculator comes in. It’s not fancy. It’s not over-engineered. It just does one thing: helps you figure out where to put that screen so your eyes aren’t screaming at you by episode three.

I built this because I mounted my own 65-inch last year and realized halfway through that it was way too high. Had to redo everything. Learned the hard way. This tool saves you that headache. You punch in your TV size and eye level when seated, and it gives you a solid starting point. No guesswork. No “maybe it’ll look fine.”

Key Features

  • Simple inputs—just your TV size and seated eye level. No need to measure your ceiling or count ceiling tiles.
  • Gives you the ideal center point for the TV. Most people get this wrong and mount based on the bottom edge.
  • Works for any screen size, from a tiny 32-inch bedroom set to a massive 85-inch living room beast.
  • Accounts for typical viewing distance and ergonomics—because your spine will thank you later.
  • Free. No sign-up. No ads. Just open it and use it.

FAQ

Q: Do I really need a calculator for this? Can’t I just eyeball it?
A: You can. And if you’re okay with neck pain or a crooked viewing angle, go for it. But most people don’t realize that the center of the TV should be at or slightly below eye level when you’re sitting. That’s not intuitive. The calculator removes the guesswork.

Q: What if my couch is super low or my ceiling is slanted?
A: Fair point. The calculator gives you a baseline. If your setup is weird—like a basement couch on the floor or a vaulted ceiling—adjust accordingly. But even then, starting with the recommended height keeps you in the right ballpark. Better than starting from zero.
