I'm setting up a bar and billiards room and plan to mount two TVs. Since there won't be any furniture underneath to conceal the cords, I'm looking for the best methods for hiding them. I've heard it's not allowed to run the power cord through the wall, but I want to avoid having a bulky extension cord on the floor leading to an outlet or using one of those recessed TV power kits. Any advice?

You could also use a product like Cablemate or Wiremold. They come in different styles, and you can paint them to match your wall color, so they'll blend right in and look sleek!
A good option is to install a receptacle right behind each TV. Some people also run the cords through the wall, but if you're worried about safety or code, you might want to skip that. Just make sure everything is up to standard for your peace of mind.
Another great idea is to use a sleek socket or just paint the covers of any existing outlets to make them less noticeable! It really helps with the overall aesthetics!
