Fireplace Media Wall Checklist Dubai
For an electric-fireplace media wall, gather the fireplace and TV model numbers, installation manuals, wall measurements and seating position. Decide where power, data, ventilation and maintenance access will go before making the wall openings. This checklist covers electric units, not gas or solid-fuel installations.
Media wall brief checklist
Attach dimensions and manufacturer installation information.
Include curtains, doors, AC grilles, skirting and adjacent joinery.
Record where further opening-up or support review remains unresolved.
Show connection and service locations on the elevation.
Define what is fixed, openable or removable.
Measure the wall and identify the equipment
Provide model information for the electric fireplace, TV, mount, speakers and other equipment that will be built into or supported by the wall. Add a measured room and wall plan, seating position, finish references and the storage or display functions required.
Manufacturer information remains the source for model-specific opening, clearance, ventilation, mounting, power and access requirements. This checklist does not cover gas, wood-burning, chimney or flue installation.
- Equipment models and installation documents
- Wall, room, ceiling and seating dimensions

Confirm landlord or building rules where services, penetrations, loads or work access are affected.
Close these decisions before fabrication
| Decision | Decision recorded | Risk if unresolved |
|---|---|---|
| Equipment model | Exact dimensions and installation data | Incorrect opening, mount, clearance or service point |
| Viewing position | TV height checked from intended seating | Uncomfortable screen position after the wall is closed |
| Access | Defined removable panel, cabinet or equipment route | Destructive work during future service or replacement |
| Finish layout | Approved joints, edges and opening details | Awkward cuts, thin strips or inconsistent alignment |
| Support | Wall and backing requirements documented | Late reinforcement or unsuitable fixings |
