Coordinated Containment Drawings for Electrical and Building Services Projects

DMG Design Services provides professional containment drawings for commercial, residential, refurbishment and fit-out projects across the UK. Our drawings are prepared to show cable tray, basket, trunking, conduit and containment routes clearly and accurately.

Containment drawings help project teams understand how electrical cables and building services will be routed through a property. Clear drawings can reduce installation issues, improve coordination and support more efficient site work.

We prepare containment drawings that are practical, organised and suitable for coordination with other services. Whether your project includes corridor routes, risers, plantrooms, office spaces or commercial areas, our drafting support helps communicate the intended containment layout.
