Each of us has speakers at home for a computer, music center or TV. Often the wires from the speakers get tangled and constantly get in the way, lying underfoot. This is quite dangerous, especially if there are small children or animals at home. We'll show you how to hide these wires so you never have to worry about them again.

Steps

  1. 1 You can install special cable trays. These are such long cases that you can scroll to the floor or wall, and insert the wires inside. The cases can be opened and closed at any time. They can be cut to length with a regular knife.
    • Cable boxes are sold at any electronics store or tool store.
    • These cases can be screwed to walls, ceilings, floors, or glued with double-sided tape.
    • They can be painted to blend in with a wall or other surface.
  2. 2 The wires from the computer and speakers can be routed under the baseboard. If you have a rug spread out, it will be easy for you to hide the wires underneath. Just tuck them over the edge of the carpet. If you have a skirting board, unscrew it and hide the wires behind it, then screw it back on. This is the most compact solution.
  3. 3 The wires can be attached to the ceiling. Thus, you will never stumble over them and they will not interfere with you. If you have a suspended ceiling, this is very easy to do. You can use special fasteners and or glue the wire with double tape.You can also buy a custom cable duct or cable run and attach it to the ceiling.
  4. 4 You can hide the wires in a special flexible case and attach it to the floor. Thus, the wires will always be collected in one place. The case can be made of fabric or rubber. It will look something like the one shown in the picture.

Tips

  • The easiest solution is to buy wireless speakers. Then you don't have to puzzle over where to hide the wires.

Warnings

  • Do not hide wires in metal cases, since they have too much electrical conductivity.
