When installing PVC row trunking, properly handling the connection parts with the wall is the key to ensure the quality and aesthetics of the installation.
First of all, the preparation work before installation is crucial. Check the wall to ensure that it is flat, dry, and free of impurities such as oil and dust. If there are uneven areas on the wall, they need to be processed. You can use sandpaper to polish or fill them with putty to ensure that the cable trough can fit the wall tightly. At the same time, according to the length and layout of the cable trough, determine the installation position and mark it on the wall with a pencil.
Secondly, there are many ways to choose the fixing method of the connection part. The most common method is to use expansion screws or self-tapping screws. Expansion screws are suitable for relatively solid walls and can provide strong fixing force. When installing expansion screws, first drill holes in the wall, then insert the expansion tube into the hole, and then screw the screws into the expansion tube to fix the cable trough firmly on the wall. Self-tapping screws are relatively simple and convenient, and are suitable for some less solid walls. When using self-tapping screws, pay attention to choosing the right length and diameter to ensure that they can penetrate the cable trough and the wall and provide stable fixation.
In addition, in order to make the connection more beautiful, you can use a decorative cover to cover the screw. The decorative cover is available in a variety of colors and styles, and can be matched according to the decoration style. When installing the decorative cover, make sure that it fits tightly with the cable trough and the wall without any gaps.
When dealing with the connection, you also need to consider the entry and exit of the wires. Generally speaking, some openings can be reserved at the connection between the cable trough and the wall so that the wires can enter and exit smoothly. The size of the opening should be reasonably designed according to the number and diameter of the wires to avoid the opening being too large or too small to affect the use. At the same time, in order to prevent the wires from being worn when entering and exiting, a rubber wire cover can be installed at the opening to play a protective role.
Finally, after the installation is completed, the connection parts should be checked and adjusted. Check whether the cable trough is firmly fixed to the wall, whether the screws are tightened, and whether the decorative cover is installed in place. If there are loose or uneven places, adjust and repair them in time. In addition, during daily use, the connection between the cable trough and the wall should be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure its safety and reliability.
In short, when installing PVC row trunking, carefully handling the connection with the wall can improve the installation quality, ensure the safe use of wires, and also add beauty to the interior decoration.
