Using a hot glue gun, run a small bead of glue along the edge of the tackless strip (photo 1). Immediately press the wires into the glue at the edge of the tackless as you move along the wall (photo 2). The hot glue will secure the wire to the edge of the strip as well as to the edge of gripper bar. This is quick, easy, and keeps the wires out of your way during the installation. (Note: Never run electric extension cords under carpet due to the very real danger of fire from a short.)
