Default Panduit / Cord hiders locally?

Looking for these fancy cord hiders for my build. Anyone know where to get these?

I'll usually pick up from a Electronics supplier but have seem at big Electric supply businesses (eg EECOL Electric, Westburne), Imagine would be same in Calgary.

That stuff is called panduit. I got a quote from a supplier here in Burnaby and it was $60 for a 6 foot strip of 1x1. Thankfully a friend had 2ft spare so I swapped him for a 10gallon tank.

Its nice stuff, but a nightmare if you ever have to access it or remove the cover to change out anything electrical.

You can try B&E Electronics down in the south (not far from Shaw GMC if that helps) or Active Electronics across from Big Als if that's any easier but yeah I imagine EECOL and Westburne would also have it.

Why is it a nightmare? Just becuase all the wires fall out when you take the covers off?

I should just say I have a nightmare. Its so snug in my stand that its hard to get too.

If you have space/access its good to use
