TXiceman Posted April 10, 2020 Report Share Posted April 10, 2020 We had two Avion trailers and both had a unique fix for the problem of shifting clothes. They had a padded bar that would swing down and latch to hold the coat hanger on the rod. Since we have added an eye hook at each end of the closet, mounted slightly behind the center of the clothes rod. We stretch a bungee cord over the clothes to secure them.

Problem solved... 😉 That's NOT gonna work! You can't mold plastic like that. Maybe metal but those don't hold well.... More I consider it may be worth $20 for a few for my cowboy shirts and jackets.....At a certain point the effort to improve costs more than the danged expensive gadgets!

Just a little heat applied to the plastic hooks will allow re-shaping . Quote Goes around , comes around . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpmtngal Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 Being a TT owner with the closet in the back, I have the same hanger issue. Friends of mine use the bungee cord method, some others use a pool noodle as a second bar over the hangers (I think). I decided the extra cost of the Lynx hangers were worth it rather than trying to remember to use the bars or bungees that seem to work with regular hangers. I have a bad enough time remembering tension bars in a couple of my cabinets to keep things from shifting occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I've done it using a both a heat gun and a hair dryer, although not for this specific purpose.

It worked well for us using the velvet covered plastic hangers with metal hooks. They hold clothes well too...
