legrand Wiremold Metal Raceway, Extending Power, On-Wall, Cord Channel, White, BWH1

Most of the time I prefer to install everything inside the walls, but sometimes it just isn't worth the trouble. I wanted to run power to my TV, which is wall mounted, but the closest outlet was a couple feet to the side. Running the power horizontally through the wall would have required cutting out a chunk of drywall to drill through the studs. With the Wiremold / Legrand metal raceway, I was able to take the existing outlet box, mount a starter box over it, run raceway a couple feet over the wall, and then use another starter box to bring power back into the wall. At that point running a new outlet higher on the wall in the same stud space is relatively straightforward without having to make unnecessary drywall cuts. The Wiremold / Legrand system works well. The metal raceway has a more substantial feel to it than the plastic parts and is still paintable. Be a bit careful though - some of the edges of parts like the mounting plate can be a bit sharp. I walked away from this project with a few nicks. Also, the way the raceway connects to the boxes can require a bit of work to connect. I had to tweak the little tabs a bit with pliers to get them to slide in easier. I definitely wouldn't hesitate to use this again for a similar project. One other minor note: no fault of Wiremold / Legrand, but my raceway box was delivered bent like a boomerang. I ended up returning that to Amazon and just buying a replacement at the local hardware store. Props to FedEx for leaving it that way on the porch - my wife and I both had a good laugh.

Amazing product that was needed

It works the way it supposed to, but! I needed to send this one back. Because! I needed a double gang box. Legrand has great products!

Bought this to replace some junky plastic wiremold I had put up a few years back. Easy and quick. Thanks

Well made and parts fit together but careful measurements are necessary. Even with the video provided on Amazon, directions are sadly lacking. Fortunately, it’s not rocket science but more detailed instructions (written or video) would help. Make sure you get ALL the necessary parts. You’ll also have to supply your own wall mounting screws and inserts.

Excellent

As described.

I haven’t painted it yet, but this does a great job of managing my television cord since I have it hanging on the wall. This directs the cord straight down the wall in a nice perfect line and once I paint it, it will almost disappear, giving the room a clean look.

Excellent product, easy to install and solid. Recommended.

When you're working with legacy conduit systems this integrates to standard electrical fittings. Good price, delivered quickly!

Exactly what it is supposed to be

de buena calidad, la volveria a comprar

It is an OK item ,my fault I thought it would have been deeper
