FAQs
What is the maximum cable diameter this trunking can hold?
The D-Line White Semi-Circle Decorative Trunking is designed to hold cables with a maximum diameter of 8mm.
Can I paint this trunking?
Yes, the trunking is designed to be paintable. For best results, use a plastic-friendly primer before applying your chosen paint color.
How many pieces are included in a pack?
Each pack contains four pieces of the D-Line White Semi-Circle Decorative Trunking.
Do I need special tools to install it?
A fine-tooth saw is recommended for cutting. Installation can be done with strong double-sided tape or screws, which may need to be purchased separately.
Is this trunking suitable for outdoor use?
This trunking is designed for indoor use. Outdoor conditions may affect the material and adhesion.
How does the 'additional internal capacity' help around corners?
The extra space inside the trunking allows cables to flex more naturally when the trunking is bent around a corner, reducing the risk of cable damage.
What are the exact dimensions of the trunking?
The trunking measures 20mm in width and 10mm in height (H)x(W).
Troubleshooting
Trunking lid won't snap shut
Ensure cables are neatly arranged and not obstructing the lid. Check for any debris inside the trunking.
Adhesive not holding trunking to wall
The wall surface may be dusty, damp, or not smooth. Clean and dry the area thoroughly. Consider using screws for a more secure fix.
Difficulty cutting trunking cleanly
Use a fine-tooth saw and apply steady pressure. Consider using a mitre box for precise angled cuts, especially for corners.
Paint is peeling off the trunking
Ensure a suitable plastic primer was used before painting. The surface must also be clean and free from dust or grease.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Measure and Cut: Determine the required length and carefully cut the trunking to size using a fine-tooth saw.
- Prepare Surface: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth for optimal adhesion or screw fixing.
- Install: Apply double-sided tape (sold separately) to the back of the trunking or use appropriate screws (not included) to fix it securely to the wall. For corners, the flexible internal design aids in smooth transitions.
- Insert Cables: Open the trunking (it typically has a clip-on lid) and carefully lay cables inside. Ensure no cables exceed the 8mm diameter limit.
- Close Trunking: Snap the lid back into place.
- Paint (Optional): Once installed, apply a suitable paint to the trunking surface to match your wall color.

- Compatible with most standard household and office cables (power cords, HDMI, Ethernet, speaker wire, etc.).
Care:
- Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- If painting, use a primer suitable for plastics before applying your chosen paint.
