Performance Features
Engineered from the inside out. BDI furniture is designed to integrate technology into the way that you live. Innovative performance and convenience features abound, simplifying your initial gear set-up as well as future updates, all while maximizing your enjoyment and protecting your investment over the life of your system.
Remote Control Access
Signals from an infrared (IR) remote control pass through the same doors that keep components neatly concealed and out of sight.
Soundbar Shelf
A double-width center compartment is the perfect spot for a soundbar—up to 38-inches in length—allowing for full audio dispersion at the ideal height, even behind closed doors.
Satin-Etched Glass
This highly durable tempered glass has an unbelievably soft finish that provides protection from dings, scratches, and even fingerprints. Learn more
Flow-through Ventilation
Ventilation is built into the cabinet's base, back and adjustable shelves, promoting airflow and allowing heat to escape. Shelves rest on threaded, cushioned shelf pins, eliminating vibration and allowing for endless adjustments as needed.
Rear Access Panels
Rear access panels easily slide or remove for convenient access to the rear of components, cables and connections.
Hidden Wheels
Concealed wheels make the cabinet easy to move—and cables easy to access—while preserving the clean lines of the durable steel base. Lower the levelers to raise it off the wheels to secure it in place.
Safety Matters
The included safety strap easily installs to tether a TV to the back of the cabinet, minimizing the risk of accidental falls. Learn more
Cable Management
Thoughtful details like generous cable cut-outs, integrated routing channels, and removable back panels preserve the uncluttered design. There are even cable straps to keep everything organized.
Optional Low Leg Assembly
This optional accessory creates a low profile by replacing the taller media legs on the Corridor 8177 and 8179 models with shorter ones.
Height of the lower legs is 4.7 in | 12 cm, reducing overall cabinet height by 3.75 in | 9.5 cm.

Finishes
ABOUT FINISHES
The beauty of real wood lies in the infinite variations of grain, texture, and color that develop as a tree grows. Wood is a natural product, affected by weather, climate, soil, light, and natural growth patterns.
Variations in wood patterns and colors are to be expected from one piece to the next, and will even vary from one panel to another. It is this organic characteristic of natural wood that ensures that each design is a unique work of art.
Images presented on this website are representative of the true finish, but no two screens display colors the same way. Your actual finish is likely to vary somewhat from what you observe on BDI’s website or on an actual finish sample. For the most accurate representation, please visit a BDI retailer.
