FIXCHORD Mini Self-Adhesive Cable Trunking (15mm x 10mm x 1m) – White
Product description
The essentials
If you’ve got cables running down walls and they’re forever getting in the way, FIXCHORD’s mini cable trunking is a simple way to tidy things up. It’s a self-adhesive cable cover designed to help hide wires on home or office walls, making the space look cleaner and feel a bit safer—especially where people (or pets) might accidentally bump, trip, or tug at loose cable runs.
On paper, it ticks a lot of practical boxes: no tools required, flame retardant material, and a PVC trunking that can be painted so it blends with your décor. It’s not trying to be a full re-wiring solution, it’s more about managing existing cable clutter with a neat visual finish.
There is one limitation worth keeping in mind: it’s sized for small cable diameters (the cover is for cables under 7 mm). If your cables are thicker than that, you’ll likely need a different approach.
What it’s for (and what you’ll notice)
This mini trunking is meant for straightforward cable management—think tidy runs along skirting boards or wall sections where you want cables out of sight. Because it uses a wall-mounting adhesive strip, you’re not looking at drilling, messy wall patching, or hardware.
A typical “day to day” scenario: you’ve got a charging station or a TV/desk setup with cables trailing down a wall. With this, you can plan a route, peel the tape backing, and press the trunking in place. Once it’s on, the wires sit inside the cover instead of hanging loose, and the wall looks less cluttered.
It’s also positioned as a safety helper. Bare cables are more likely to be snagged, chewed, or simply become a trip hazard. Hiding them in a trunking can reduce those everyday annoyances.
Key features that matter
Easy, drill-free installation
The trunking is designed to be installed by peeling and sticking—no tools or extra fittings required. You’ll still want to take a moment to plan the cable path first, but the actual fitting process is very direct.
It’s also described as easy to remove without damaging walls or surfaces and without leaving residue, which is useful if you rent, or if your cable layout changes later.
Cable-friendly size
The manufacturer states you can use cables under 7 mm in diameter. That’s a big deciding factor: if your cables fit, the mini trunking will likely look neat and stay properly filled. If they don’t, you may end up with a cover that doesn’t sit right or feels too tight.
Flame retardant and protective
The trunking is made from flexible PVC and described as flame retardant. In practical terms, that gives you a bit more peace of mind than a purely decorative cable cover—particularly in rooms where you want cables contained.
Paintable for a blended finish
White covers are convenient, but sometimes your walls aren’t. This trunking can be painted: the guidance provided is to lightly sand the trunking with fine sandpaper, then apply two coats of paint. That means you can match it to your wall colour rather than leaving a visible stripe.
Where it shines (and where it may fall short)
FIXCHORD’s mini cable trunking is at its best when you want quick visual improvement without turning it into a project. Self-adhesive trunking like this is often a good fit if you’re dealing with existing cables and want them hidden along a sensible, straight route.
It may not be the best match if: - your cables are thicker than the stated under-7 mm limit - you need a heavy-duty solution for complex routing (this is more about concealment than flexibility for corners and intricate layouts) - you expect it to replace trunking systems designed for larger bundles or future expansion
So yes, it’s useful and sensible—but it’s still “mini” trunking. It tends to suit small, tidy runs more than major cable networks.

How to choose the right cable cover
Before you buy, measure up your situation. First, check your cables’ diameter against the under-7 mm guidance—this is the one spec that can quietly make or break the result.
Next, think about where the trunking will sit. Adhesive placement usually works best on reasonably clean, flat surfaces, and a planned straight route will generally look better than trying to force it around difficult bends.
Finally, consider the finish. If the white trunking will stand out, the paintable feature is a real advantage. If you don’t want to do any sanding and two coats of paint, it’s worth confirming that white will actually blend with your wall.
Should you buy it?
Final verdict
Worth buying if you want a straightforward way to hide smaller cables on walls, prefer drill-free installation, and like the idea of flame retardant PVC plus a paintable finish. It suits home and office cable tidy-ups where the main goal is a cleaner look and fewer everyday cable hazards.
You may want to skip it if your cables are thicker than the stated limit, or if you’re trying to manage bigger bundles and complicated routing. In those cases, mini trunking can feel too constrained.
