Magnetic cable organizer (vertical)
Idea from customer Markus Laire from Finland:
You can use the bottom side of any shelf to neatly hang cables: Just attach one or more strips of self-adhesive metal tape 35 mm
to the bottom of a shelf, press on firmly, and place discreet white magnetic hooks FTNW-16
on the tape.
Now you can conveniently sort and hang up your cables.
Note from the supermagnete team:
- We also carry coloured glue-on metal strips in various colours (black, red, blue, green) in case your shelf is not white.
- Shelves used on both sides are also the topic of the project Creating storage space in the pantry
Addition by Andreas zum Winkel from Germany:
Thanks to an iron bookend, 2 screws and 6 small hook magnets FTN-10, I was able to end the cable mess inside my drawers. I screwed the bookend upside down to the desk and attached the hook magnets.

Now the cables can be looped through the hooks.
A simple and practical solution.
Neodymium rod magnets S-05-08-N
can also be utilised on the bookend.
Use them to easily attach USB and similar plugs.

Addition from customer G.C.
from Switzerland:
I have an external screen and a mouse that I can connect with my laptop.
But I often have my laptop in my bag, which leaves cable clutter on my desk (4 different cables).
In order to change that I placed W-05-N
cube magnets along the stem of my metal desk lamp.
Now, I can attach almost every cable to a cube magnet (see picture below).
