Solved! Need skinny UPS/Surge Protector

[kep55]

Our church recently remodeled the interior and one of the things done was installing a 65' EP series
Planar monitor. It cost about $100 an inch. Needless to say since the Planar is basically an AIO pc we want to protect it. The problem? The architect put the electric outlet directly behind the monitor mount with no more than 3" of clearance. Since it take 3 or 4 people to move that puppy, pulling it off to install a UPS/SP is not really an option. Any suggestions? The SP will need to handle 1,000 joules minimum.
I'd just as soon punch a hole in the wall and mount another outlet in the closet behind the Planar. There's already a shelf there formed by the alcove that was installed by a blue-ray player.

I have several of these, but 4+ inches wide.

Do you have the option of using a well hidden extension cord running to an UPS?

"well hidden extension cord"...We have one snaking around behind the monitor. Trouble is, the mount is close to the wall and the monitor weighs so much we're not sure if we can look.

Understood. Seems the hole punch in the wall option might be best then. Might even be a good idea to make the hole large enough to access the the various ports, just in case. No one would see from the front.
