Hiding cables / raceways

Hi,

I'm looking for a UK supplier of smart solutions for hiding speaker and other cables in a room without having to dig channels in plaster. I know a US web site cableorganizer.com who sell a useful corner/ceiling cable raceway that can be painted over and hide cables. Not found anything similar in the UK yet though. What I am looking for is something to hide cables that are run around the corners at the top of a wall (no coveing in this room) and down the wall in the corner of the room. Easy to install and paintable would be great.

Thanks for any suggestions.

hi

If there is no coving there you could put the wires in first and then add the coving after to hide all the cabling

You could also use this type of trunking maybe

You can get trunking/conduit that replaces your skirting board. It looks like skirting board but allows you to route your cable around the room...
