Customer reviews of our cable ties
Why do I need cable ties?
Do you want to tidy up your workspace, but not install rigorous items like a cable trunking? Cable ties to the rescue. They are small, easy to use, reusable, and can always be applied.
The great advantage of cable management with cable ties is the ease with which the ties can be added and removed. Very useful if an extra cable needs to be tidied away, or if a cable needs to be removed from the bundle.
By combining the cable ties, larger bundles can be joined, but a bundle can also be easily guided along the leg of a desk.
They are also used for large cable management jobs. Cables bundled from the desk to a cable trunking and then towards another desk or wall is an aesthetic detail that makes the difference between a ‘neat job’ and ‘fantastic work’.
Tips to get the most out of your cable ties
- Don't make your bundle too thick
With a cable bundle that is too thick, you can still lose track of the cables. Also, a thick bundle is less flexible and won't run as nicely over the edge of your desk.
- Black is often the best
Are you unsure about the colour of your cable tie? Keep in mind that 99% of cables are black. A black cable tie will therefore be the best option.
- Connect your cables first and ensure sufficient space
After bundling your cables, some flexibility is lost. So make sure all your cables are properly laid out, give them enough space (hello phone cable), and only then bundle everything tightly.
- Secure your cable tie under the desk with a small screw
If you want to hang the bundled cables tightly under the desk without a cable trunking, you can secure them to your desktop with a small screw through the cable tie.
- Do you think you'll need to remove cables later? Tag them
Sometimes you might have cables that will be replaced in due course. Think of a new keyboard or a new desk lamp. If you put a small (coloured) sticker on both ends of the cables, you'll immediately know which ones to remove.
