Hide Cords Behind Furniture

Cable clips can keep a charging connector within reach without letting the cord trail across the floor. They organize a cord; they do not make an unsafe power arrangement safe.

Route without strain

1. Choose clips sized for the cable and approved for the furniture finish. Test surface compatibility; follow the adhesive package instructions.
2. Plan a route that avoids pinching, sharp bends, hot surfaces, wet areas, and moving drawers. Leave slack at the connector.
3. Prepare the surface as directed. For Command clips, the cited project uses rubbing alcohol and a one-hour wait before loading; verify that the furniture finish tolerates it first.
4. Fit the clips and thread the cable without stretching it. Keep chargers ventilated and outlets accessible.

Check the result

Move the furniture or drawer through its normal travel and confirm the cord is not trapped. Gently test the clip before relying on it. Keep cords out of children’s reach, and never run a mains extension lead under a rug or attach it with staples.

Remove adhesive clips using their specific release method to reduce finish damage.
