Gaming rooms and basement screens in Lehi tract homes
The other Lehi specialty is the gaming wall. Tract homes from the boom years almost all carry a basement, and that cool lower level is where the consoles and PC rigs end up. We mount for the way games get played: screen centered at seated eye level rather than fireplace height, a shelf or recess for the console within a short cable run, 48Gbps HDMI so a current console is not choked by an old wire, slack managed so nothing tugs the ports. Framed basement walls are standard stud work. Where the finishing used furring strips over foundation concrete, we either reach through to the concrete with Tapcon anchors or spread load across toggle points, whichever the cavity allows. Bare concrete takes 3/16-inch pilots and concrete screws rated past 200 lbs each. LED bias lighting behind the panel saves eyes in a dark Lehi basement, and we wire it while the mount is open. Gaming and basement installs run 60-90 minutes.
