Anyone know the name for this cable holder thingy?

[Valyyn]

At my last school, we had a bunch of these in the store cupboard:

 

I want to get some at my new school, but I can't find them anywhere!

 

Anyone know what they're called/where I could get them from?

 

I've tried things like "wall mount cable holder" "wallmount cable hooks" and all variations thereof, but the closest I can find is:

Any ideas anyone?

 

Thank you1

Aweful things, ripped a few out a cabinet and skipped them.

I dont think they are made for hanging cables on though...

Also called open-slotted trunking.

Nah I agree now I know what they are meant for! I think whoever put them up originally (well before my time) figured that it would work and it kinda does!

 

I might have a look for something more "proper" for storing/hanging cables on though.

Hooks?

[Valyyn]

Sorry for bumping, but what do other people use for hanging/storing cables?

 

Just some normal hooks like this?

Open to suggestions!

Zip tied or velcroed in loop then bunged in a draw. We tend to only buy what we need and repair what we can
