rubber cable ramps/covers

[john_the_bass]

morning
do you have any recommendation where to get the rubber cable ramps that you can cover your cables with when you have to lay them on the floor in a venue. We played on saturday night and had to run the cables across the main entrance and taped them down with large quantities of gaffa so they didn't trip anybody up - but the rubber mat/ramp things would be the ideal solution.
Any good suppliers?

Is this the sort of thing you mean ?

Note that this type allows 3 mains-width cables side by side and comes in 1 metre lengths.

If, so then most office suppliers (e.g Staple, Viking Direct etc.) should have them.

cheers men - yes that's the kind of thing - ideally it should fit anything up to 4 mic cables and 4 mains cables under. i will investigate the links.

From what I can see some of them have no access to place the cables in the holes other than threading them through whereas others have a slit to press them through from underneath. Just something to bear in mind, although it shouldn't do any harm to add your own slit to a solid-type one if you needed to.
