Coat Hook Questions

What is the difference between a coat hook and a robe hook?
They do the same job. A robe hook is usually a smaller single or double hook used in a bathroom or bedroom for dressing gowns and towels, while coat hook is the general name for a wall or door hook in a hallway.

What is a hat and coat hook?
A hat and coat hook has two arms, one above the other, on one backplate. The upper arm takes a hat, bag or scarf and the lower arm takes a coat, so one hook does the work of two.

Can I fit a coat hook to the back of a door?
Yes. Use screws shorter than the thickness of the door, and on hollow core doors fix into the solid timber frame or use suitable cavity fixings.

At what height should coat hooks be fitted?
Most people fit hallway coat hooks at around 1.7m to 1.8m from the floor for adults, and lower for children. Robe hooks on a bathroom door are usually fitted near the top of the door.

Are Heritage Brass coat hooks solid brass?
Yes. Every Heritage Brass coat hook by M.Marcus is made from solid brass and finished in the same finishes as their door handles, so hooks and handles match.

How to Choose a Coat Hook

1. Pick the type: a single coat hook for one coat or towel, a double coat hook for two side by side, or a hat and coat hook with two arms for a hat or bag above a coat.

2. Think about the room: hallways and boot rooms suit tall hat and coat hooks or coat hooks on a plate, while bathrooms suit smaller robe hooks.

3. Check the projection: a deeper hook holds thick winter coats and bags; a slimmer hook suits the back of a door where space is tight.

4. Match the finish: choose the same finish as your door handles. Brass coat hooks come in polished, satin and antique brass, or choose chrome coat hooks, satin nickel, polished nickel, matt bronze or matt black.

Coat Hook Questions

Will a coat hook damage my door?

No, as long as the screws are shorter than the door is thick. On hollow core doors, fix into the solid timber around the edge of the door or use cavity fixings so the hook does not pull out.

How much weight can a coat hook hold?

A solid brass coat hook fixed into timber or with a good wall plug will comfortably hold everyday coats and bags. The fixing, not the hook, is usually the weak point, so use a suitable plug for plasterboard or masonry.

Are robe hooks suitable for bathrooms?

Yes. Heritage Brass robe hooks are solid brass with a durable plated or lacquered finish, so they cope well in a normal bathroom. Wipe them dry after cleaning and avoid abrasive products.

Will brass coat hooks tarnish?

Polished and satin brass are lacquered to slow tarnishing, so clean them with a soft damp cloth and avoid brass polish. Antique brass and matt bronze are designed to age, and polished nickel develops a gentle patina unless buffed.

Do your coat hooks come with screws?

Yes. Every Heritage Brass coat hook is supplied with matching fixing screws in the same finish.
