I only need to cover 3 cords that run across a doorway. If the 31" length is too long, can it be cut to fit? Lisa

Yes it can be cut. This is make from a PVC material, so using a hand saw, hacksaw, table saw, etc will work. Just make sure you have a blade for plastic.

Greetings Lisa,The material is a PVC plastic and it is cuttable but we recommend a PVC saw which has fine teeth to make a clean cut.If you have any questions, please let us know.

I haven't needed to cut mine, but the design & build seems like it would be ok to cut & not splinter, crack or be ruined.

Hi Lisa, I think the cover would be hard to cut since it's made of really hard plastic. Some of the others said they soaked the cover in hard water to make it bend. Might be okay after that, but I'm not sure!

I was able to get several cables (speaker wire, lamp cords, etc.) through using the three tracks. I don't know what size cord you want to put through and have it lay flat on the ground but I would say you could get a larger gauge wire through up to 1/4 inch thick. The only issue I have is getting it to lay flat because it is shipped rolled up. I am sure there must be a trick to get it to lay flat (maybe rolling it in the opposite direction for a period of time) There are thicker, more sturdy types of cord protectors which I would recommend looking into. I wound up not using this product due to the not laying flat problem. I was able to get several cables (speaker wire, lamp cords, etc.) through using the three tracks.

I only used this style for the chairs,dont think the cord is long enough for the sofa. only way to find out is to remove what is left behind and measure the length of the cord.

yes, cables can be cut to any length - The transformer fits inside of a standard 4"? ceiling box - The cover is included - if you want to run the cables a greater distance (feed line from box to cables) than 3' you can just use a longer feed cable - very well made and they look great -very happy with the product :)

I moved my outlets up to make sure they fit behind the console. But regarding the size of the console, yes, it's large enough to easily cover them. You will have to position the console so that the outlet does not fall behind one of two vertical partitions.

I would say no. Especially if the cord is thick like most computer cables are. You might get the plug to fit but then you won't be able to get the cover over if the cable is big. It's ok for laptop cords, lamp cords, and I have one on my sewing machine. But if the cable/cord is even slightly bigger then it won't fit in the tiny hole at the bottom that is has too to snap the cover on.

You can cut this with scissors. I used it for a few different groups of cords.

thickness is no problem - 8' is too big a span - I think it only goes about 7'. My door is 6'7" and it was about maxed. Maybe they make longer elastics etc for the extra length but the regular unit doesn't span 8'.

I don't I haven't found any specifically cut to fit, but you can go to Home Depot & buy as much of it as you want. You just have to cut it to fit.

If it is of shorter distance to an outlet & no way to hide or decorate the cord?You may need to shorten as it is over 4ft.of electrical cord.

yes, you can tuck the wire in the wall to shorten it to the length you want.

This Outlet Cover normally will accommodate 4 foot of cord. I tried this with my computer cord. With a thicker cord it will not hold 4 foot of cord. It will work as far as protecting the plug, you will not be able to wrap all the cord in the shortener.

I would braid about three strands of the cord to accomplish what you want to do. It would be an increased safety factor but it certainly would do the job.

That won't work. The minimum width is 28 inches, as that's the area where the internal cord mechanism is contained. If you cut into that, it won't work.

You are given a lot of length on the cords. I have 10' ceilings as well and had to cut the cords shorter.

Hello,Yes, you will need to order longer cords. They measure 3 feet 5 inches in length (both cords). Good luck with your set up.

Well the door can be cut but not sure about to only 30 inches. I cut the bottom of all my doors down to 77 inches as all my doors and closets are shorter than 80 inches. I had to use a really good jigsaw with a good jigsaw blade in order to make a nice cut but was able to do it will the door was still folded up like when you receive it. That being said it can be cut using the right tools. Now your problem is you want to cut it down to only 30 inches. The door has a handle you add when done and the top of it starts at 29 inches down from the top. The handle is 6 inches long so it goes down to 35 inches on the door. When you cut it to 30 the door handle will have to be moved up so the holes will have to be re-drilled. The other problem is the magnetic latch to keep the door closed is at 31 inches from the top. It is 2 inches in length so it goes down to 33 inches on the door. That part can not be relocated as it is part of the manufactured door. So you are going to lose the magnetic lock part. That said it can be cut but you have to do it will the right tools. You will also need to relocated the door handle up to the middle of the 30 inches which I do not see as a problem but something you need to do if you want the handle to open and close it. The major lose will be the magnetic lock that holds it from opening. You will need to figure out some other way to latch it if you want it to stay closed of just let it rest against whatever you pull it towards. So since I cut all of the doors and they came out good I do not see a problem making the cut at 30 inches other than the two issues I stated. All in all the section you have left is going to be no good as the door hangs from the top down and all the anchors to hold the door are at the top and it is manufactured into the product. Hope this helps.
