Step 1: Track, cont’d

Cut cable access hole in wall

1-3

Using a drill, box cutters and/or a saw, cut a hole at

the base of the wall 4" W x 1½" H (10.1 cm x 3.8 cm).

If there is a metal base stud, use a hand saw or tin

snips to cut it at both edges of the hole and bend

it back into the hole so that the stud lies flat on the

floor. (Use a file to remove any jagged edges that

might damage cables.)

The hole will eventually be covered by the

baseboard, so it does not have to be perfect.

4" (10.2 cm

)

1½" (3.8 cm)

Mark wall

1-2

If necessary, remove the baseboard from the bottom

of the wall and mark where the AVTrac will abut the

wall.

Cut aluminum base track

1-4

Measure and cut the track pieces to the desired

length. The track should run up to but not enter the

hole in the wall.
