FAQs
What are the benefits of using trunking?
Trunking is an effective tool used to improve cable management in domestic, commercial and industrial settings. As well as keeping your space organised and tidy, it protects the cables themselves while still allowing easy access without significant disruption. Trunking also helps to reduce trip hazards and prevent damage to the cables themselves, making it a great choice for offices, communications and circuits.
What type of trunking do I need?
Plastic trunking is perfect for general use while metal trunking is better suited for industrial environments where cables typically require greater protection and better resistance against fire and electromagnetic interference. For smaller applications, mini trunking is ideal for hiding cables and managing circuits in compact spaces. Consider trunking with a slide and hinge system for additional convenience during installation.
Is trunking easy to install?
Trunking is generally easy to install and involves securing the trunking to walls or surfaces with screws or self-adhesive, laying the cables inside, and then snapping the lid or cover into place. Its easy installation makes it a popular choice for managing electrical cables and protecting cables in various settings.
How durable is metal trunking?
Metal trunking is usually made from materials like steel or aluminium, which provide excellent protection against physical damage and corrosion caused by factors such as mechanical impact and electrical faults. It is commonly available in various sizes and shapes to suit different needs. Please check the manufacturer's information before installation to ensure the trunking is suitable for use in your setting and structure.
What kind of trunking accessories should I look for?
Look for components like a flat bend for smooth directional changes along a flat plane and an internal bend to navigate corners inside walls or structures. Include socket boxes for securely housing electrical outlets and end caps to neatly terminate trunking runs. Additional trunking accessories, such as clips or brackets, can provide extra protection and organisation.
