We are in the process of buying a house and simultaneously selling our house. I've fixed some minor issues for the showing, but now I'm stuck on a hole in the wall by the front door, where a fuse box used to be. When we switched from a fuse box to an electrical panel, a hole was left in the wall where one of the fuse boxes sat. "I would fix it later," and now the time has come.
The hole measures 18 cm in length and 30 cm in width from the electrical panel. The black cable is just protruding from the hole, making it impossible to cut a chipboard to the same size and screw it to the studs without it sticking out.
What ideas or suggestions do you have?

At the risk of stepping on someone's toes now, it does look a bit messy around. Loose cable to the heater, some junction box cover, some structure or color shift.
If it were for sale, I would have taken the entire height of the panel and put a white metal sheet against the wall. Screwed with a few screws, white heads.

Had placed a cabinet without a back over both the hole and the fuse box (No one wants to see the fuse box)
Think shallow bathroom cabinet or overhead cabinet for the kitchen, then place a panel that hides the hole with hooks for keys.

The proposal about a sheet has the advantage that it allows access to the partly very sharp bends in the hoses. At least one of the bends is so severe that I think it will be difficult to ever replace the wires in it.
Then it doesn't hurt to hide everything with a cabinet in an appropriate format. Take the opportunity to tidy up the routing of the loose cable we see at the top as well.
