In this blog, we explain step-by-step how to make a cinewall, what materials you need, and how to directly order the right products.
Why choose a cinewall with decorative moldings?
A cinewall is popular because it combines multiple functions. It neatly conceals cables, creates a luxurious appearance, and immediately increases the value and appeal of your home.
With decorative moldings, you can easily create a design that matches your style. Think of:
- Sleek modern panels
- Classic wall panels
- Symmetrical divisions
- Large luxurious surfaces behind the TV
In addition, decorative moldings are easy to install and can be painted immediately, making them ideal for both DIY projects and professional finishing.
🛠️ What materials do you need?
For a cinewall with decorative moldings, you will need the following materials:
Decorative moldings (wall moldings / picture rail moldings)
Below you will find the most commonly used decorative moldings for a cinewall:
- HW2 decorative molding – wide and luxurious wall finish for cinewalls
- PX201 decorative molding – sleek and subtle picture rail for wall panels

A miter box with a saw is indispensable when installing decorative moldings. This allows you to saw the moldings neatly straight and miter corners perfectly, for example, for internal and external corners. This ensures a clean end result without gaps or crooked seams.

For the construction of the cinewall, you can work with wood, MDF, or a frame.
