Synergy Elite 14.13 in. Closet Valet Rod

haven't gotten around installing it yet, but it seems easy, sturdy and with storage capacity as advertised. The important part is that it did NOT come with a cap for the back end of the system. Gladly I got the 14" one which goes all the way to the back of my closet partition and it won't snag on my clothes. The back part is sharp, so you should either get the size that fits your installation, or get creative and do a silicon bead or cheap it out by using tape. Would have expected that detail to be covered by Hafele.

Not only elegant, yet sturdy, this valet rod is the perfect closet accessory! Unfortunately, the 14 1/8” size was too long for my closet dividers so I had to return. Obtained the smaller size from another provider. Nevertheless, I highly recommend. Be sure to measure carefully before ordering!

I was doing a rebuild of my closet and added this into the closet to steam my shirts. Works very well. My only concern is overtime how does the fit stay in place so its not to loose.

I had my closets all redone and had custom shelves and drawers installed. In the master they installed this same valet rod. It looks great and it’s very strong and easy to telescope out. I opted for this over the other ones that are a chrome rod with a round ball on the end because I feel it keeps hangars on better and also because I already knew it was rock solid. I have 6 pairs of jeans that hang from the cuff of the pant leg because I couldn’t use that style of hangar anywhere else in the spare closet. This holds them no problem at all. I’m sure I can put several more pairs of jeans on it with no problem. It’s very sturdy and nice looking.

What is nice is that the back of the mount comes with a selection of holes that align nicely with the holes in the closet wall. And the screws accompanying the mount fit the closet wall holes precisely. That makes installation a breeze. There is one problem though. The written instructions don’t tell you how to dissemble the system so that you can put in the screws. There is a plastic clip inside the back of the mount that you have to push in, in order for it to release the rod from the mount. Only then can you get to the screw holes.
