AI-generated summary
For £16.55 ex-VAT, this Neomounts safety cable with lock is the kind of “small spend, big sanity” accessory that’s genuinely worth it—especially in busy UK offices, training rooms, reception areas, or anywhere displays get moved around. The universal nature means you’re not stuck with one monitor brand/style, and the lock cable is a straightforward deterrent against quick grab-and-go theft. If you’re already investing in a screen or mount, this is cheap insurance rather than an upgrade.
That said, it’s not a full security strategy. A cable lock won’t stop determined removal with tools, and it’s only as good as where it can be anchored (i.e., solid furniture/frame points nearby). I’d buy it for shared spaces and “light to moderate” risk environments; I’d skip it if you need serious physical security, or if your installation location makes anchoring awkward. If you tell me what the mount/screen setup is and where you can loop it, I can sanity-check whether this will actually work in practice.
