Cover strip aluminum MACLEAN MC-814 B black — cable organizer trim

Aluminum cover strip MACLEAN MC-814 B in black is a cable organizer trim designed to conceal and protect cables along walls and other surfaces. Constructed from lightweight aluminum with a black finish, this cover strip creates a low-profile channel to route power, data and AV cables, offering a practical solution for retrofit or new installations where a fixed, unobtrusive raceway is required.

Advantages

The aluminum construction provides mechanical protection for cables while remaining corrosion-resistant and easy to cut to length. The black finish reduces visibility on darker surfaces and gives a consistent appearance in professional and residential environments. Installation is straightforward and the rigid profile keeps cables aligned and secured, reducing trip hazards and cable wear.

Suitable for

• Concealing power, Ethernet and audio/video cables along walls and baseboards
• Retrofit installations where existing walls cannot be chased or recessed
• Offices, conference rooms and public spaces requiring organized cable routing
• Home entertainment setups and workstations where a low-profile trim is desired

Key specifications

• Material: aluminum
• Color/finish: black
• Profile: rigid cover strip for surface-mounted cable routing
• Functionality: conceals and protects multiple cable types including power, data and AV
• Application: suitable for surface mounting on walls and similar flat surfaces

How to use

Measure the required length and cut the aluminum cover strip to size using appropriate cutting tools for metal. Position the strip on the desired surface and fasten according to the mounting method compatible with the installer’s preferences (adhesive, screws or mounting clips), ensuring the surface is clean and dry before attachment. Place cables inside the channel and close the cover if it has a separate lid or secure in the provided profile. Check that cables are not bent beyond their minimum bend radius and that connections remain accessible if needed.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use corrosion-resistant fasteners on exterior-exposed or humid locations and avoid overfilling the channel to maintain proper protection and airflow. When routing power and data cables together, follow local regulations regarding separation and grounding. If planning paint or wall repairs, fit the cover strip after finishing walls to ensure a neat edge.
