Delamu 2 Pack Metal Under Desk Cable Management Tray, U Channel Cord Organizer Box
Quick take
This 2-pack metal under-desk cable organizer uses a U-channel design to route and contain cords and power bricks out of sight. It is a good match for people who want a sturdier, cleaner-looking setup, with the option to mount via tape or screws. The main caveat is that tape mounting is highly dependent on clean, smooth surfaces and requires curing time, so screws can be the better choice for long-term stability.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Metal U-channel construction designed for a stable, tidy under-desk cable layout
- Two mounting methods, tape (up to 4 lbs) and screws (up to 11 lbs)
- Includes multiple accessories (cable ties and cord holders) to support different cable routing needs
- Grooves, perforations, and pre-drilled holes help organize cables and support heat dissipation
Cons
- Tape mounting can be less reliable on imperfect surfaces, and it needs proper cleaning and curing
- Mounting hardware uses a limited number of screw holes (alignment may not feel ideal for every desk setup)
- Some included cord-holder accessories may not work as well depending on your cable shapes and desk clearance
What buyers think
Buyer feedback is generally focused on setup ease, how much clutter it removes, and how secure the tray feels once mounted. Many reviews describe the trays as sturdy and effective at hiding and routing cables, especially for setups like power strips and laptop power bricks. Several buyers like having options (tape or screws) and appreciate the included cable ties and holders for smaller cable management tasks. A recurring theme is that the tape option can be hit-or-miss, with surface prep and curing time playing a big role, so buyers who want maximum hold often switch to screw mounting.
Who this is for
- People who want cleaner under-desk cable organization, especially for power bricks and mixed cable runs.
- Buyers who prefer metal cable trays over flimsy plastic solutions for a more rigid look and feel.
- Anyone who values flexible installation, whether you need a no-tool starting point (tape) or a firmer long-term mount (screws).
Who should avoid it
- If your desk surface is not smooth or is hard to prep, tape mounting may not provide the hold you want.
- If you expect every included accessory to perfectly fit your exact cable and desk clearance, you may need to use only the main tray and choose specific tie/holder placements.
- If you need a highly customized mounting pattern, note that the screw-hole layout is not a four-corner style, so alignment may vary by desk.
Design and build: metal U-channel with ventilation-style cutouts
The Delamu cable management trays use a U-channel metal form factor, which helps keep cords contained and routed in a predictable path under the desk. The tray includes grooves and perforations, plus pre-drilled holes for cable placement and airflow, which can be useful when you are running power bricks or other devices that benefit from ventilation.
Installation options: tape for quick setup, screws for stronger hold
There are two ways to mount these trays:
- Tape installation: supports up to 4 lbs, with guidance to use tape only on clean, dust-free, smooth, and flat surfaces. After mounting, it is recommended to press firmly and allow 24 hours for curing before placing cables.
- Screw installation: supports up to 11 lbs for a firmer hold.
Practically, buyers who want maximum stability tend to drill and screw the trays in, sometimes using tape only as a temporary positioning aid during pilot work.
Size and cable capacity considerations
Each tray measures 15.75 inches long x 4.72 inches wide. That footprint is well-suited for organizing power strips and typical laptop power brick setups, plus the surrounding cable leads. If your power brick is unusually large or your desk clearance is tight, plan your placement so the tray does not interfere with the underside of the desktop or moving parts on adjustable desks.
Accessories: what you get and how to think about them
The kit includes more than just the trays. In addition to two U-shaped cable organizers, you get 6 cable ties, 8 screws, 2 single-hole cable holders, 4 four-hole cable holders, and 1 roll of strong adhesive tape. This broad accessory mix is helpful when you need to bundle thin cords, secure plug ends, or add extra routing points.
That said, some buyers note that not every included holder style will match every cable shape or desk layout. If you are troubleshooting fit, cable ties are usually the most universally useful piece, while the cord guides may take a bit of trial and placement.
Pros and cons recap
- Best for: under-desk cable and power-brick organization, especially when you want a more solid metal tray look and you can use either tape or screws.
- Main tradeoff: tape mounting depends on surface prep and curing time, so screws may be the safer bet for a long-term setup.
- Value angle: the 2-pack plus bundled ties and holders helps you tackle more than one area or multiple cable types without buying extra accessories.

FAQ
Can I mount these under a desk without drilling?
Yes. They include strong adhesive tape for a no-drill install method. For best results, the mounting surface should be clean, dust-free, smooth, and flat, and you should allow the recommended curing time before loading cables.
Which is stronger, tape or screws?
Screws provide the higher load capacity option (up to 11 lbs) compared with tape (up to 4 lbs). If you want maximum stability, screw mounting is the better choice.
Will these trays fit standard laptop power bricks and power strips?
The tray size (15.75 inches long x 4.72 inches wide) is designed to accommodate common under-desk setups like laptop power bricks and typical power strips. If your brick is very large or your cable routing needs special clearance, plan placement first.
What accessories come with the kit?
You get a 2-pack of U-shaped trays plus cable ties, screws, cord holders (single-hole and four-hole styles), and a roll of adhesive tape.
Are the included cable guides and holders always useful?
They can help with organizing specific cable runs, but fit depends on your cable thickness, plug shapes, and desk clearance. If a holder does not work for your setup, cable ties and tray placement are often the more flexible solution.
Do the trays help with heat dissipation?
The design includes grooves, perforations, and pre-drilled holes intended to support cable placement and airflow around under-desk equipment.
