The Benefits Of Using A Cable Caddy

By Eugenia Dickerson


Most homes and businesses need to use cables at some point. The problem is that over time the lengths can get bent and twisted, sometimes resulting in excessive tension and time wasted untangling them. One way to avoid this is to use a cable caddy.

In simple terms a cable caddy is a small piece of material designed to bind wires and cables together. What this material is will depend on what you need to bind together. With thicker industrial cables you are likely to use a more sturdy metal while a plastic one is better suited for offices and home use.

The problem is that you may not necessarily want to stop watching your television or playing your games console because you are trying to sell your home. Therefore having the cables kept clipped together and neat can maintain a well presented look to your home while at the same time allowing you to live in it!

It can also be used for your desktop computer. This allows you to keep your computer in place and means you do not have to fumble around to keep things in position. This can then save you time so you can keep working. You can either use them free standing or stick them down with some adhesive tapes on the side of your desk to keep everything in place.

However a caddy can also be useful in businesses that are not industrial. For example if you work in an office you do not want people accidentally tripping over wires while going to the bathroom or heading for a meeting. Using a caddy and sticking them to the side of the desk will reduce the risk of this happening, saving a lot of lost time in the process and reducing the risk of people claiming compensation if they get injured tripping over a wire they did not see.

You can also use caddies in the home to keep things tidy and reduce the risk of accidents. For example a home entertainment system can often be made up of the television, video player, disc drive recorder, games console and any number of other gadgets. This inevitably means a lot of wires and getting them tangled can make it hard when you want to clean around them.

Reviews will also indicate what ones are best for you. You want to be sure that the model you get is sturdy and will keep cables clipped together. Check product specifications as well to be sure that they are suited for the kind of cables you are using. You do not want to order one only to find it is too small for what you want.

There are various companies that offer cable caddy products. Ideally you want to compare a number of them. Remember to not just look at price but also carefully check the specifications in order to be sure that what you are getting is right for your needs. It is also advisable to use your regular search engine to find customer feedback and reviews so you can find out what products are most recommended by other users and find the ideal one to suit the needs of your home or business.
