A:  It is a fire hazard to permanently attach a 25ft power strip on the wall, its basically like an extension cord with multiple outlets. Better contact an electrician to run an additional outlet where you need it.

A:  Yes, this will fit a power cord.

A:  No, this product is not meant for use with hardwired applications. For this purpose, we would recommend something like item NMW1. https://www.homedepot.com/p/5-ft-Non-Metallic-Raceway-Wire-Channel-White-NMW1/100038290

A:  As long the wire(s) you are using are small enough gauge to fit inside the track and snap it shut, it will work.

A:  Line voltage means hardwiring an outlet or lamp. Using this product to cover a cord is its intended use.

A:  I beleive they are referring to that this cannot be used for inside the wall wire channelling.

A:  As I understand it, this product is intended to be used to hide a plug-in power cord. It is not intended to be used to cover wiring that is permanently wired into your home. It works perfectly for its intended use, but is probably not within building codes for permanent building wiring.

A:  Line voltage means wires that runs “TO” an outlet. Meaning the hot, neutral and ground wire cannot be installed using just this plastic wiremold replacing a conduit to power up an outlet. A lamp cord is ok, to hide and organize it then attach on the wall. I used this to hide a cable of my camera power supply.

A:  Yes, it can

A:  Yes, this product can be installed on a ceiling as long as the ceiling surface is smooth.

A:  If you use another means of attachment, such as screws, I believe you could mount it on a ceiling. The screws would have to be close enough together to keep the channel from sagging.

A:  yes it has double sided tape on it you just peel and then stick it where ever you want it

A:  Yes, if you use screws or staples or some mechanical method to attach to the ceiling. The "double stick" adhesive is useless.

A:  Yes. I used it years ago in my garage and it's still up there.

A:  I don’t see why not. It’s a sticky backing so any surface will work.

A:  If you remove this from a painted wall made of drywall the adhesive will likely tear the drywall paper or remove areas of paint.

A:  The sticky part adheres to the surface. I have tried removing these after a year or two and the glue holds a residual strip on the surface. You would have to scrape that off separately.

A:  It is not difficult to remove but it has a bad habbit of tearing paint and drywall when being removed. Use a plastic blade to reduce surface damage.

A:  Ready to remove, but it could peel your wall paint off.

A:  This product has an adhesive back and is not designed to be removed. It is also not tested on floors, as it is for use only on wall surfaces, so It may not adhere to a floor very well.

A:  Yes it can as it is made of plastic. I would screw it to the surface and not use the peel and stick tape because most likely the tape will not hold up to the weather. Open it up, screw it to your surface, put your wire in and close it up.

A:  No, this product is designed and for use in interior dry locations.

A:  I used it for indoor and it worked best, the goal was to hide wires to look nice on the walls. if its outside protection from outside weather is more important than looking nice, so I suggest PVC than this.

A:  Yes - it is no more than rubberized plastic

A:  This product has been tested and is designed for indoor dry locations only. We do not offer any similar products that are rated for outdoor use.
