Hi.
Sice refitting my office, the current desk hides no wiring:


Any ideas on hiding some/ all the wiring?.
(no option to hide in/behind the wall.) And 'D' trunking/ conduit seems too small to fit them all in.


cheers

Cable tie them to the horizontal bars? Might not be the best answer but it will look 10 times better

I'd just be cheap and get a bit of MDf or something and put it behind the desk with the wires behind it. Paint it black and if its the same size as the desk it won't look too odd.

Good shout!
I was just thinking about a false wall, the height of the desk about 2" out from the current wall.
However zipties should work brilliantly.

Put some trunking or cable ties behind the legs and run the wires down them?

Cable tying to the bars would be my choice, no work at all

Then cable tie to bars.

As a cheaper alternative to the mdf, ive done one before with a sheet of card and painted it to match the wall

Actually looks good
