$10 home depot item for jacket / helmet hanger

theopowers · 08-25-2008

I sent this off to Gadget's website and he said he's gonna put it up. I'll throw it up here too.

Gadget has a DIY project for a helmet/jacket hanger, estimated cost $8.

Roaming around Home Depot a couple days ago I saw this "power tool hanger" and co-opted it for moto use. Cost only $10, looks nicer than DIY, and takes no time. If you wanted to mod it a bit you could probably heat it and bend the "helmet" hook up at an angle so that it would sit higher above the jacket.

Comes with screws, butterflys for drywall, and a mount for their proprietary rack rail.

I got mine at Home Depot, like I said. Package has www.closetmaid.com on it. Maybe they'll have other vendors listed. Edit: Looks like Target for sure and maybe Lowe's too.
