A Simple Way to Improve Your Closet

SAN CARLOS — If your closet is so full that you’re putting hangers on hangers, it might be time to add some accessories to improve its functionality. One popular accessory is known as a valet rod. This retractable post provides a convenient place to hang clothes when you’re in a hurry, deciding what to wear or packing for a trip.

Rather than re-hanging a piece of clothing in its original spot on the closet rod­ (or worse, hanging it on a chair or door jamb), you can temporarily hang it on the valet rod. In addition, a valet rod provides an easy way to compare clothing items side by side or assemble your wardrobe for an upcoming trip. It’s also a great catch-all if you’re in a hurry or you’ve just brought clothes home from the dry cleaner.

Considering the low cost and ease of installation, a valet rod is one convenient closet investment you’ll be glad you made.
