US Patent 9211023 Garment hanging system

A garment hanging system for safely hanging a long garment from a structure such as a door without the garment coming into contact with the floor or the surface of the door. The garment hanging system generally includes a bracket, a mounting portion extending from a first end of the bracket and an extension member extending from a second end of the bracket. The mounting portion extends downwardly from the bracket and includes a hook for holding a garment or accessory. The extension member extends upwardly and diagonally from the bracket such that any garment stored on a hook thereof will not contact the ground. An adjustment member may be positioned within the bracket to alter its effective width to match a wide range of doors.
