With its low profile and streamlined design, the Express kit minimizes trip hazards and simplifies maintenance, all while preserving the look and feel of your carpeted spaces.

• Premium under-carpet wire management — The 3 ft Express Under Carpet Extender Kit delivers a dedicated channel beneath carpet tiles, enabling cables to run out of sight and out of the way. This solution reduces clutter on the floor and keeps important cords protected from foot traffic, vacuuming, and everyday use. The result is a safer, cleaner work or living space where cables remain accessible yet unobtrusive for occupants and visitors alike.
• Complete kit with essential components — This package includes the bottom track, MDF ramps, and a top cover, providing a turnkey extension for under-carpet installations. The integrated design ensures the track aligns securely with carpet tile boundaries, while the MDF ramps create smooth transitions to prevent snagging as people move across the floor. Together, these parts form a durable, durable-ready pathway for cables that won’t easily shift or degrade over time.
• Low-profile, durable construction — Engineered for high-traffic environments, the Express kit prioritizes a slim footprint and robust performance. The bottom track anchors the system in place, while the MDF ramps deliver gentle, even ramps to minimize wear at transition points. The top cover delivers a clean, finished appearance, keeping cables sealed inside the channel and protecting them from dust, moisture, and daily use while maintaining the carpet’s aesthetic integrity.
• Easy integration with carpet tile layouts — Ideal for carpet tile installations, this 3-foot extension blends with modular tile patterns and can be positioned to align with workstations, conference zones, or aisleways. The kit supports quick routing of electrical and data lines to power outlets, AV gear, and network equipment, helping facilities managers and homeowners achieve a professional look without exposing cables on the surface or compromising the carpet’s texture and color.
• Versatile, maintenance-friendly solution — Beyond initial installation, the Express kit makes routine cable management straightforward. Cables run through a protected channel, reducing the risk of damage during cleaning or rearrangement. When changes are needed—whether adding new devices, reconfiguring layouts, or expanding networks—the modular design allows for adjustments with minimal disruption to the surrounding carpet tile environment.

How to install Connectrac 3FT Express Under Carpet Extender Kit

Installing the 3FT Express Under Carpet Extender Kit is designed to be straightforward for professionals and capable DIYers working with carpet tile installations. Follow these steps to ensure a secure, visually seamless integration that keeps cables protected and accessible for future maintenance.

• Plan your route — Evaluate the space and determine the most efficient path for cables beneath the carpet tiles. Measure the 3-foot segment to align with the furniture layout, outlet positions, and equipment locations. Consider future reconfigurations and avoid high-traffic zones that might require frequent cable changes.
• Prepare the substrate — Clear the area along the planned route of debris and ensure the floor surface is clean and level. A stable base helps the bottom track sit flush and reduces the risk of misalignment or gaps after installation. If necessary, address uneven subfloors or substrate irregularities before placing the track.
• Position the bottom track — Place the bottom track along the intended path, ensuring it sits flush with the floor and aligns with carpet tile seams. Secure the track as recommended by Connectrac’s guidelines to prevent shifting during foot traffic or cleaning. Take care to keep the surface uninterrupted and free from obstructions that could interfere with installation.
• Install MDF ramps at transitions — At any transitions where the track meets adjacent carpet tiles or edges, install the MDF ramps to create smooth, snag-free slopes. The ramps reduce wear on carpet fibers and minimize tripping points, contributing to a safer and more comfortable walking surface. Verify that ramps sit securely and do not create gaps between tiles.
• Attach the top cover and route cables — Place the top cover over the track and secure it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Thread cables through the channel, ensuring they follow the intended route without sharp bends or compression. Check for adequate radii and clearance, then test the system by gently pulling cables to confirm the pathway remains stable under typical movement and equipment loads.
