I recently got the house rewired and decided to future proof a little by getting cables laid for things I might do in future, such as electric gates.

I recently got the house rewired and decided to future proof a little by getting cables laid for things I might do in future, such as electric gates.
I now have a knotted wire hanging out of one wall that is for wiring up an intercom, should it be needed down the line.
In the short term, I would like to conceal this wire without pushing it back into the wall and getting lost.
What's the best thing to do/buy to conceal it? Some kind of cover plate?
Any advice appreciated
