Hi!

We're a large family and I'm considering buying the kids entry-level 13 inch macbook airs some time before the end of the year, possibly on Black Friday.

Anyhow, by then we will have four MacBook Airs, two 15 inch MacBook Pro, a PC laptop plus two iPads and several phones.

I'm looking for a rack of some sort where all or most of our devices can be stored vertically, ideally charging and the cables can be neatly arranged.

Google only returns school-type cabinets, even with wheels, for 20+ devices, which is not what I'm looking for. They are metal cabinets with doors and locks and we won't need something for 20 devices. And typically, they're for a single type of device, not multiple kinds.

Amazon carries nice racks that are only large enough for a single laptop, an iPad and a couple of phones.

I need something bigger, but equally versatile.

Any suggestions will be welcome. And thank you in advance.

I was searching through some stuff, but couldn't really find any vertical storage solutions; there are horizontal cabinets though. It seems either like a DIY project or you could use something else for this purpose; like a dish drying rack. This or this seem like they could do the job.

Also, it is a heck of a lot cheaper than those storage carts!

You're quite right! I think it'll have to be a DIY job ...
