Setup and Installation
The Simple Houseware Adjustable Closet Hanging Rod is designed for quick, tool-free assembly and installation.

- Install Rod Bracket Clips: Place the rod bracket clips onto the vertical rods at your desired height. Ensure the arrows on the clips point in the correct direction and snap into the grooved indicators on the vertical rods.
- Hang the Unit: Carefully hang the assembled unit over your existing closet rod using the top hooks.
- Insert Horizontal Rod: Slide the horizontal clothes rod up from underneath into the installed rod bracket clips.
- Adjust Height and Width: Adjust the horizontal rod vertically by repositioning the clips on the vertical rods. Expand the horizontal rod to your desired width (between 18 and 30 inches). For added stability, avoid expanding to the absolute maximum width if not necessary.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Simple Houseware Adjustable Closet Hanging Rod, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the chrome finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
