Might need a Wiremold bender to have a offset where the box connector enters. Wiremold can be a pain sometimes.

V500 series is easy to bend minor offsets with a 1/2" EMT bender. Might need touch up paint or wrap the raceway in something to protect the finish though.

The challenge I had was trying to get all the fittings. Each electrical house had some but not all parts. A catalog helps when searching

Oh my god. I didn’t know there was actually a wiremold bender. I just googled it. I’ve been using a 1/2” Emt bender and a rag. Heck I bent some under a door a couple of weeks ago. This is life changing.

And I got mine for free, too. Not something that is used often but is a lifesaver when you do need it.
