Hi everyone,
So I'm currently scrutinising the house for safety.
Can you please tell me if there is a guideline for how high shelves need to be if they are under a wall mounted TV? I am putting a tv on the wall in the under construction play room, which was previously our dining room. We need to put shelves under it for the sky box, wii and the play station as this is really the only solution for us. I am just concerned that Ofsted may say this is not allowed. I am stuck!
I also have a open tv cabinet in my front room that houses the sky box and the dvd player. The cabinet has rounded egdes, so safe from that point of view, but will I get marked down on this as the children could touch them if they wanted to? Or will I just have to include it in my risk assessment of the living room? I wil obviously be enforcing my house rules about not touching them.
