A hanger assembly or valet rod adapted for attachment to a vertically extending supporting surface, such as a side surface or front edge surface of a panel member of a modular closet organizer system or the like. In one embodiment, the hanger is rotatably carried at one end by a base plate preferably attached by a pair of spaced pegs in selected holes in a row of vertically extending spaced holes preformed in the panel side surface. Stop members are provided to support the rod in a generally horizontally extending operative position for carrying one or more articles, with the rod being movable to a generally vertically extending retracted position where it does not interfere with the use of the closet compartment. The stop members may be repositioned for use of the valet rod on an opposite side surface of the closet organizer panel. A second embodiment provides a pair of vertically spaced pivot members, each of which includes rotatable bushing members defining an arcuate through-opening for reception of one of a pair of arcuate arm elements connected to each other to form a generally V-shaped hanger arm. The hanger arm elements slide in the through-openings and the pivot members rotate about their axes to permit the hanger arm to move between its operative and retracted positions. A third embodiment of valet rod comprises a base member to be fixed by screws or the like to the front edge surface of a closet organizer panel, with a hanger arm pivotally connected at one end of the base member and a stop element supporting the hanger arm in a generally horizontally extending operative position, permitting the hanger arm to be rotated upwardly to be juxtaposed to the base member in a retracted position.
