Abstract
A valet rod slide mounting assembly is provided for mounting to a supporting surface, such as a door, closet organizer, wall, or the like. The assembly includes a rod and a tube receiving the rod for sliding movement between an extended position and a retracted position when the tube overlaps substantially the rod. The assembly also includes at least two anchors for mounting the tube to the supporting surface. The anchors include a first bore sized to receive the tube and a second bore perpendicular to the first bore and sized to receive a mounting element that engages the support surface. The anchors can also include a third bore where a tube retainer is positioned to engage the tube securably. The assembly can also include a plurality of hooks that depend from the rod, with respective components including slots to permit the hooks to engage the rod continuously while sliding.
