FAQs
Can I paint the trunking?
Yes, the trunking is stainable, which means it can be painted to match your decor. Ensure you use a paint suitable for PVC.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a saw to cut the trunking, a measuring tape, a pencil, and a screwdriver or drill for securing the fixings. You may also need a level to ensure the trunking is installed straight.
How do I cut the trunking?
Use a fine-toothed saw to get a clean, precise cut. Make sure to measure twice before cutting.
What type of fixings should I use?
The type of fixings will depend on the surface you are installing the trunking on. Use screws and wall plugs if you are mounting it on a wall, and consider adhesive or double-sided tape for a temporary installation. Choose fixings that are appropriate for the surface material (e.g., wood screws for wood surfaces).
Can the trunking be used outdoors?
This trunking is designed for indoor use. Direct exposure to the elements may cause discoloration or damage.
Can I run multiple types of cables through the trunking?
Yes, you can run various types of cables through the trunking, such as power, data, and audio/video cables, as long as they fit within the trunking's capacity and do not exceed the recommended cable fill ratio for the trunking size.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not close properly.
Check for any obstructions or cables that are preventing the lid from closing. Re-arrange cables if necessary.
Trunking detaches from the wall/floor.
Ensure that the fixings are appropriate for the surface. Consider using stronger fixings or adhesive if necessary.
