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

Louvered Doors

Beautifully crafted yet supremely functional, hardwood louvered doors artfully conceal your electronics, transforming clutter into a harmonious design statement.

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.
Corridor hidden wheels

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.

The BDI Corridor 8179's included safety strap easily installs to tether a TV to the back of the cabinet, minimizing the risk of accidental falls.

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.
