Ropehooks began life as a simple task: hanging kids’ wet outdoor clothes up to dry somewhere in a boiler room. The problem was that all of the walls were taken up with pipes, wiring and the like. The only logical solution was to hang them from ceiling.

For a few years the simple rope-and-hook approach did its job until another task came up: putting hooks in the wardrobe for the kids to use. At this point we realised we needed a much better solution – and that maybe others did, too.

We set ourselves the challenge of creating the simplest coat-hanging system possible – one that looked good and was both flexible and affordable. And that’s how Ropehooks came about.
