Abstract
A hook/hanger for use at the top of a door is formed in two separate parts in the form of a plastics material molding, having a flat rear surface and a central front hook-shaped part, and a sheet metal pressing which has a leg snap-fitting in a slot in the molding extending inwards from its top surface, in which is provided a recess to receive flush a body part of the pressing which engages the top surface of the door, in use. The body part has barbs to be driven into said door top surface to retain the hook/hanger in place. The pressing has a very small thickness to allow the door to be fully closed even with the hook in place.
