Can you recommend something for attaching cables to ceilings in a nondestructive manner? I also live in an apartment and this is a concern.

- extra88 10y agoGoogle "nail in cable clips." A small nail makes a small hole but if you run the cable along a wooden baseboard or molding, the holes aren't really noticeable (not like a hole in the wall from hanging a picture). There are adhesive cable clips but I've never used them, they're probably more expensive especially if they're the "Command(tm)" adhesive that's supposed to come off cleanly.

- wang_li 10y agoIf your rooms are carpeted, there is actually a gap between the baseboard and the floor. With care you can fit coax or cat5 in there no problem. It ends up completely hidden.
- mjevans 10y agoProperly setup command strip based hooks can work. However most apartments let you 'hang pictures'; anything that leaves so small of a hole that painting over it effectively patches it.
