TV size and viewing distance calculator

Find out how far your sofa should be from the TV, what size suits your room, how wide the TV unit should be, and how high to mount it.

Estimates only, for planning. Measurements and quantities for your home are confirmed on site.

How we calculate it

A comfortable viewing distance for HD and 4K TVs is roughly 1.5 to 2.5 times the screen diagonal. Closer feels immersive, further feels relaxed. Screen width and height are worked out from the diagonal for a standard 16:9 TV.

We suggest a TV unit at least a foot wider than the screen so the TV does not look perched.

Mounting tips

For seated viewing, keep the centre of the screen near eye level, about 42 inches (107 cm) from the floor. Plan concealed conduits and sockets behind the console before the wall is finished.

FAQ

TV Size and Viewing Distance Calculator: questions

Still unsure? A short call usually answers it.

What size TV for a 10 ft viewing distance?

Roughly 48 to 80 inches. Most people are comfortable with a 55 to 65 inch TV at that distance.

How high should I mount a 55 inch TV?

Keep the centre of the screen about 42 inches from the floor, so the bottom edge sits roughly 2 ft up.
