About Cable Floor Covers

Cable floor covers, also called floor cable protectors or cable ramps, are an industry requirement at public events wherever a cable run is placed in a pedestrian area. They remove trip hazards and protect cables from foot and vehicle traffic, which makes them essential equipment for audio and lighting companies, venues and studios. Schools, universities and workplaces also rely on cable covers to meet OH&S requirements and standards.

SWAMP stocks heavy duty cable trays in 2 channel and 5 channel options with matching corner pieces. They are built to withstand light vehicle traffic and can carry audio, lighting and power runs together at large events, including multicore cables. Drop-over covers lock together in 1m sections for a fast, flexible solution, while our carpet covers use a hook underside that grips nylon carpet for easy temporary cover in offices. Where a full cover is overkill, gaffer tape holds short runs down fast. Keep leads tidy with cable wraps, browse all audio cable accessories, or build long runs from bulk audio cables.

Cable Floor Cover FAQs

Are cable covers required at public events?

Yes. Covering cable runs in pedestrian areas is a standard OH&S requirement at public events. Cable trays and covers remove trip hazards, protect the cables themselves and keep event organisers compliant with workplace safety standards.

How do you cover cables running across a floor?

Match the cover to the traffic. Heavy duty cable trays carry audio, lighting and power through areas with light vehicle movement, drop-over covers suit pedestrian walkways, and carpet covers handle temporary runs in carpeted offices. All three remove the trip hazard and protect the cables underneath.

Can I use cable covers on carpet?

Yes. Our carpet cable covers feature a hook underside, similar to Velcro, that grips any nylon based carpet. They are light, easy to remove and ideal for temporary cable covering in carpeted offices and workplaces.
