About This Tool

So, you’re hanging a TV on the wall—cool. But where exactly do you put it? Too high and you’re craning your neck like a confused flamingo. Too low and it feels like you’re watching from under the couch. That’s where this TV wall mount height calculator comes in. It’s not magic, just simple math based on how people actually sit and watch TV. I built this because I got tired of guessing. Every time I mounted a screen, I’d step back, squint, and think, “Wait, is that right?” Spoiler: it usually wasn’t. This tool takes your eye level when seated and your TV size, then tells you where the center of the screen should be. No fluff. No jargon. Just a number you can trust.

Key Features

  • Uses your actual seated eye height—because everyone’s different.
  • Works with any TV size, from 32-inch bedroom models to 85-inch living room beasts.
  • Accounts for standard viewing angles (around 15–30 degrees down from eye level).
  • Gives you the center point of the TV—so you know exactly where to mark the wall.
  • Includes a quick tip: aim for the center of the screen to be about 42 inches from the floor for most setups. But it adjusts if you’re taller, shorter, or lounging on a recliner.
  • No login. No ads. Just type, click, done.

FAQ

Q: Do I need to measure from the floor or the seat?
A: From the floor. But you’ll need to know your eye level when you’re sitting comfortably—like, actually relaxed, not perched on the edge of the couch. That number goes into the calculator. It’s the key.

Q: What if my couch is super low or my ceiling is super high?
A: Still works. Just be honest about your seated eye height. If you’re slouching in a beanbag, measure from there. The tool doesn’t care how weird your setup is—it just wants real numbers.
