    Fixing D-line Trunking to Internal Brick Wall

    Just after a bit of advice. I have bought some 50 mm D-line trunking to cover up some wires. The trunking is self adhesive but I think I would like to fit a few screws for a better fit. How would I go about doing this in an easy way. My current plan is: 1. Fit the trunking to the wall using the...

    Old cable trunking is peeling off the wall - how to fix it back on?

    So there's some old cable trunking in our new house, going from plug sockets along the skirting and then the wall corner. It was a pretty shabby job and now the horizontal trunking (from socket to room corner is peeling off the wall. I don't want to replace the trunking if possible, would rather...

    Bad experience of Screwfix Tower trunking - how's it work?

    I refer to stuff like this. It looks like typical trunking. Thing is, I don't know how to use it! I don't consider myself uneducated, but I can't figure out how to put together a run with corner and tee connectors. The only way I can assemble a run is to attach it piece by piece as I go...

    Adding a plug socket - round a corner

    Hi I have a long rectangular room with 3 sides being external walls, the other being an internal one. It's a modern house so the internal wall is just a stud partition. The room has 4 double sockets all on the same ring, and all mounted on the external walls. I would like to add an additional...

    Shed trunking broken - exposed cable

    hi all- I have electricity going to my shed and recently looked in the gap between shed and patio and saw trunking visible, broken in the middle with cable visible. I've turned power off and tried to pull trunking up to cover it, but it won't budge. I'm wondering if I can wrap tightly with...
