Cable Containment, Set Out Right.
Commercial unit · Tray, trunking & conduit · First-fix
The hidden work, done right. Cable tray, trunking and conduit set out properly at first-fix, planned, level and square, so the rest of the installation runs clean and the trades after us inherit a job, not a problem.

First-Fix Is the Part Nobody Sees, and the Part the Whole Install Rests On
Get the containment right and everything after it is safer, quicker and easier to certify. Rushed or improvised, it costs you at every stage that follows.
Safe & Maintainable
Cables properly carried and reachable for the life of the building, not just on handover day.
Compliant by Design
Segregation, support and routing set out to BS7671 and good industry practice from the very start.
A Smoother Second-Fix
When the containment is right, every trade after it, ours included, works faster and cleaner.
The Mark of a Serious Contractor
Tidy, geometric first-fix is what main contractors look for. It's quality you can see before a cable's pulled.
How We Set It Out
The same discipline on every run, so what goes up is planned, neat and right the first time.
Set out to
BS7671 & good industry practice: correct support intervals, segregation and routing, coordinated with the other trades.
- 01
Planned, Not Improvised
Routes set out and agreed before a length of tray goes up.
- 02
Neat, Level and Square
Runs that look as good as they perform: consistent throughout.
- 03
Properly Supported
Spaced and fixed to carry the load for the life of the building.
- 04
Correctly Segregated
Power, data and services kept apart and to spec.
- 05
Built for Access
Room to pull cables now, and to add to the runs later.
- 06
Coordinated on Site
Sequenced with the other trades so first-fix doesn't clash.

Handed to Second-Fix Clean
A tidy, geometric, compliant first-fix: every run squared off, supported and segregated, ready for cables to be pulled and the next trades to get on without untangling someone else’s mess.
- Tidy & geometric
- Runs squared off and consistent
- Segregated to spec
- Power and data kept properly apart
- Ready for second-fix
- A clean handover to the trades after
One of the cleanest first-fixes we’ve followed on: every run squared off and consistent. It made our second-fix straightforward.
