5 Ways To Improve Your House Using Cable Wraps
What are cable wraps? Cable wraps are best the thing since gaffer tape without the sticky backside. Tie wraps are for cinching electrical cords, hoses, and computer wires.
You Mean VELCRO(R)?
The generic term for what we all know as the VELCRO® Brand name is legally referred to in the hardware stores as hook-and-loop fasteners, touch tape, loop tape, cable wraps, tie wraps, and non-sticky tape. Call it anything but “velcro,” loop tape cable wraps have been used in almost every industry imaginable, saving and improving lives since 1955, replacing zippers and buttons and marketed as the zipperless zipper.
The Possibilities Are Endless With Loop Tape
Thanks to the dedication of Swiss engineer Georges de Mestral you have a reusable non-sticky tape to keep in your toolbox to help you clean up your home. With tie wraps you can organize your living spaces so that every item has a place and can be found fast and easy, such as your remote control or the kitchen timer.
5 Tips To Clean Your Home Using Touch Tape
- Strap It To The Wall
Hang up your bike (or most anything) using a few industrial strength cinch straps. My favorite cable wraps are the type that has grommets built in so that you can fasten almost anything to hang up and out of the way. Utilizing your wall space by hanging supplies is the best way to keep areas clean. You can hang up almost anything within reason: flashlights, garden hoses, hand tools, and whatever else looks in the way.
- Tidy Up & Hide Office Wires
Bundle computer wires and keep them untangled and labeled. Cable wraps can come in different shapes, colors, and accessories such as labeling tabs so that you can quickly know what each electrical wire is for.
- Organize Bathroom & Kitchen Appliances
Instead of letting your appliances flap around in the cabinet while not in use, roll up the wire and cinch a piece of cable wrap to hold the wire in place. This way you have more room, and when you open the cabinet or drawer, you don’t have wires falling out and looking like a disaster.
- Fix Your Junk Drawer
Make your junk drawer into a well-organized tool draw. With a roll of cable wrap, you can cut your length of loop tape and bundle small tools together, so they’re easier to find. Wrap a bundle of pens together instead of letting them roll around here and there in the drawer. When you bundle like with like your life will improve because you inevitably spend less time looking for what you need.
- Gear Up The Front & Back Doors
With your grommet cinch straps, you can hang up the outdoor gear that you need to get to work or get your kids to school. Hang up things like umbrellas, backpacks, and dog leashes. When everything is hanging at the door ready for you, it means you’ll save time every day getting ready for the day.
