Review on Streamline Your Cable Organization with Twist Lock Grommet Black Management by Paul Wilson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A quality solution for unaesthetic wires!

Great product! This is the most beautiful and functional DIY item I've ever bought! I hate cables hanging from an expensive flat screen TV, it looks sloppy and rotten! I bought 2 of these, one for the top and one for the bottom, they don't come in pairs sold. Installation was easy, but I want to share my experience with you to maybe help you avoid some of the things that could derail my project. You don't have to push the bit as hard as you think, the saw will become yours Do work, because there may be wires in that wall that can be cut with a hole saw! Position the hole at least 4 inches from the rack. Remember that the cables in the wall are usually attached to the rack, so leave room for them. The bottom hole must be at least 4 inches from the rack. a real socket in the wall, the cables run partly horizontally through the wall. There may be a spacer in the middle of your two posts that you will drill holes in. You can use the post finder to determine if it is there before drilling any holes in the wall. If so, you can't run wires through them. That. I was lucky that my apartment was cheaply built and had no struts because I hadn't considered the possibility of a strut between the struts. When inserting the grommets into the hole, only insert the back circle of the grommet into the drywall circle, in other words, don't fully insert it into the wall. How will you tighten them? If you just put the outer circle, which screws onto the grommet, into the actual drywall hole, you can hold it in place while you twist the inner grommet to tighten it. Finally, if you have an old hanger to run wires into each hole as a guide, start with the hole you want. Pass the wires through before attaching the grommets to make it easier and less complicated. I hope my stupidity and my solutions will save you time and nerves because the end result is really nice to look at!

Pros
  • Suitable for all surfaces from 3/8" to 1", use a 2 3/8" hole saw or drywall hand saw
Cons
  • Non automatic
