FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this trunking?

The primary purpose is to neatly hide and protect surface cables, providing a cleaner aesthetic to rooms.

Can this trunking be used for power cables?

It is suitable for thin power cords but is primarily designed for low-voltage or single cables. Always ensure compliance with electrical safety regulations.

How many cables can fit inside?

The capacity depends on the thickness of the cables. The internal dimensions are 30mm wide by 15mm high, making it ideal for a few thin cables or one thicker cable.

Is the white finish durable?

Yes, the white finish is designed to be durable and can be painted over for a custom look.

How is it mounted?

It can typically be mounted using its adhesive backing or by using screws through pre-drilled holes, depending on the specific product variant and desired permanence.

Can I bend or curve the trunking?

This trunking is rigid and designed for straight runs. For curved paths, you would typically need to use separate corner pieces or a flexible conduit system.

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic tools like a tape measure, a fine-toothed saw for cutting, and potentially a screwdriver if using screw fixings are usually sufficient.

Troubleshooting

Trunking not sticking to the surface

Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Use a stronger adhesive or mechanical fixings (screws) for a more permanent solution.

Difficulty inserting cables

Check if the cable bundle exceeds the internal dimensions (30mm W x 15mm H). You may need to split the cables or use a larger trunking system.

Trunking lid won't close properly

Ensure no cables are pinching the lid. Verify that the trunking pieces are correctly aligned and seated.

Cut edges are rough

Use a fine-toothed saw and a steady hand for cleaner cuts. Lightly sand rough edges if necessary after cutting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Clean the Surface: Ensure the surface where the trunking will be applied is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease.
  2. Measure and Cut: Measure the required length and cut the trunking using a fine-toothed saw or appropriate cutting tool.
  3. Apply Adhesive (if applicable): If the trunking has an integrated adhesive strip, remove the backing. For non-adhesive versions, apply a suitable strong adhesive or use the provided screw holes for mounting.
  4. Position and Press: Carefully place the trunking onto the surface and apply firm pressure for a secure bond.
  5. Insert Cables: Gently feed the cables into the trunking before closing the lid or final piece.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for low-voltage cables such as speaker wires, telephone cables, network cables (Cat5e/Cat6), and thin power cords.
  • Designed for surface mounting on walls, skirting boards, or ceilings.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • If painted, use standard water-based or emulsion paints. Ensure adequate drying time before use.
