I'm having trouble remembering the correct name for these things.

One part is a wide hook which you screw down.
The other part (which you also screw down) is a loop (usually square
ended) which fits over the hook and is then tensioned by a spring loaded
arm which you press down so there is a strong tension on the hook.

Something similar used to be used to strap down bonnets of "boy racer"
cars.

Also used to secure lids to trailers and the like.

I'm looking at making our kitchen units/office desk come apart easily if
required.

There are two kitchen pan drawer base units and a plywood (probably) top
will sit on top.

Traditional work surface fitting has the worktop screwed to the base units
using brackets.

I am contemplating a quick release mechanism to make it easy to get behind
the drawer units.

The drawer units will be set away from the walls, against strips of batten
screwed to the floor, so there will be space to access wiring and stuff
behind.

The Virgin Media box for the phone and broadband will be behind one of the
drawer units and I would prefer to have a removable desk to paying £99 to
have VM come out and move the connection.

Ah! The clip would have to work at 90 degrees because one half would be on
the vertical side of the drawer unit and the other on the horizontal
underneath of the desk top.

Cheers
