Mounting a TV into a wall recess to make it flush has always been a challenge. But beyond the carpentry required to accomplish this, something quite serious has rarely been addressed: Fire Codes. Local, National and International codes are confusing and often outdated by the newest fire codes. Code inspectors take the attitude that anything can catch on fire – including the TV. Thus the TV should be in a fire rated enclosure to prevent the fire from spreading up through the stud bay and into adjoining rooms.

Okay, we have solved the fire code issue with the firebox, but there is another issue that haunts all architects, designers, A/V dealers and Home Owners: They cannot decide which TV they will use until the last minute. The reality of construction and design requires the exact sizes to be determined at an early project stage to avoid expensive rework. Our Universal Firebox is the solution.
