The problem is that the U2F specification requires users to approve authentication requests by pressing a button and none of the existing enclosures have a space for one. Entirely coincidentally, the company behind it (Yubico) already had a design with a button because their original second-factor proposal had no other way of knowing you want to authenticate. It's a little pointless on U2F but the spec requires it.

You could quickly drill a small hole in each case, in order to fit a tall button like this one:

Also, there's some U2F devices that trigger the approval simply when they are plugged in.
