CGBE Screw-In Coat Hooks, 10 Pack

Ten CGBE hooks for a long wall or a whole garage

Ten hooks are enough to run a full row along an entryway, line the inside of a mudroom bench or hang a garage wall with cords, bags and bike helmets. Each one measures 2.4 by 1.3 inches, small enough to space them a hand apart.

Hooks and screws are both stainless steel, so they hold up in a damp garage or a bathroom. The box carries 22 screws, two for each hook plus two spares for the one that strips. Drill pilot holes with a 6 mm bit, then drive the screws into solid wood or a wood stud. On plain drywall, look for a stud first.

Black suits a painted wall or a dark wood bench. Silver goes with brushed fixtures. Each hook has a smooth face, so a wool coat or a knit scarf comes off without snagging.

For a shorter run, the 4-pack of L-shaped hooks in the CGBE catalog uses the same screws and drill bit.

How to use it

1. Mark the row with a level, a hand width between hooks.
2. Drill pilot holes with a 6 mm bit into wood or a stud.
3. Drive two stainless screws through each hook until it sits flush.
