When different industries have to install low voltage wires, cords, cables, and/or tubing through drywall, they most commonly opt for utilizing a drywall wire bushing that will allow them to protect the items passing through it, as well as the wall. Besides protecting different items placed within them, it will also enable them to install the cables through the drywall in an easy and accessible way, but more importantly, they will have a smooth point of entry and exit, meaning that everything will be more visually appealing. A drywall wire bushing is suitable for accommodating either single or double drywall thickness, which means that it could be used for various applications.
Generally speaking, they are most commonly mass-manufactured from rubber, silicone, or high impact PVC, mostly because these materials will prevent any chipping, splitting, and flaking of the drywall, which means that the appearance of it will not be impacted by the way it is installed. When compared to some other options on the market, a drywall wire bushing is installed in a screw-like way, which suggests that it needs to be screwed into the wall.
A drywall wire bushing is capable of hiding the wires, cords, or cables coming from the wall, however, it does have other advantages and uses as well. For starters, they are made from high-quality materials, hence, they are quite resistant to wear and tear, and they can also protect the wires from other factors including dust, grime, pests, but more importantly, they are suitable for protecting the items passing through it from getting damaged, broken, or cut by the sharp edges of the opening. Additionally, they are completely customizable and if needed, a drywall wire bushing can also be painted, meaning that it can suit any environment.
