FAQs

What is the primary use of this mini trunking?

This mini trunking is designed for the containment and protection of electrical and data cabling, providing a neat and organized solution.

What material is the trunking made from?

It is made from durable white PVC plastic.

What are the dimensions of this trunking?

The dimensions are 16mm x 16mm.

Can I use this for outdoor installations?

This trunking is generally intended for indoor use. Exposure to harsh outdoor elements may degrade the PVC over time.

Do I need special tools to install it?

Basic tools such as a saw for cutting, a screwdriver or drill for mounting, and measuring tape are typically required. A mitre box can aid in making clean cuts.

Troubleshooting

Trunking cover won't snap shut

Ensure no cables are obstructing the channel or lid. Check if the base is properly secured and aligned. Remove any debris from the clipping mechanism.

Trunking feels flimsy after installation

Ensure the trunking base is securely fastened to the mounting surface at adequate intervals. Use appropriate fixings for the surface type.

Difficulty cutting trunking cleanly

Use a sharp, fine-tooth saw designed for plastics. Consider using a mitre box for precise angle cuts.
