Space Saving Closet Hangers

Step 3 Finished Product

Notes:
Any chain with a wide enough hole will work however make sure the chain and the hook is rated to hold over 35 pounds.

We used a closed/welded chain link so our cloths won't get snagged.

There is a variety of different coated chains that may brighten up your closet as well as protect your clothes.

Thank you so much for sharing this!!

this is a fabulous idea! thanks a bunch! you could even make it like the 'as seen on tv' product by having an extra 'S' hook to raise up the clothes and get a hanger out easier! my only concern would be finding a store that would cut the chain...

I thought about that too, the problem is the weight of the clothes makes the chain sag in the middle causing the S hooks to slide together. I got the local hardware store to cut the chain but a goot pair of lock cutters works the same.

Easy fix. Put another S hook on the rail itself and just hook the center of the chain to it .

I'm going to do this! However... I see Dollar Store Shower hooks working quite well too! I'm going to try those!

There's a similar product called Wonder Hangers, bit these hold more. THANK YOU

My stepdaughter brought this device to my attention, and so I showed her how it won't work. I had her hold two hangers with jeans on them next to each other the way they would hang in a closet ordinarily. Then I had her lwer one of the hangers a couple of inches. This is how much the Wonder Hanger -- AND the chain method discussed here -- would shift it. The two items, of course, still occupied the same space horizontally...

No Problem, My wife loves the extra space in our closet... Now she can add more clothes!. Now I am afraid these hangers are going to last longer than the racks they hang on! I'm glad you like it, tell your friends :)

I've been looking for those things forever!!! I actually found something similar to what i was looking for at walmart, but I actually like this better, it can hold more clothes and I'm sure they will last longer :D Wonderful Idea!!!

:p I loved mine until my wife took them for, "Her half of the closet!!!" Funny how her "Half" is bigger than mine even with these hangers! Thanks for the positive feedback! I really appreciate it.
