Our house is now back up to full occupancy, which meant some things
that had been hanging out in unused rooms needed better homes. Four
of those things were folding
chairs, and now they are up and out of the way:
I made this out of three pieces of scrap wood: two bits of 2x6 and a 1
1/4 dowel. Here are the 2x6s, painted and screwed together, with the
hole for the dowel drilled:
The outer 2x6 is screwed to the inner one, and the inner one is
screwed through the wall into a stud. The dowel stays in the hole by
friction: it’s a close fit and it’s not going anywhere. This works
for these particular chairs because they have a nice round hole in the
seat back; other chair designs would likely need two pegs.
There are chair-hanging products you can buy, but I didn’t like any of
them and this was a quick project I could do with things I had left
over from earlier projects.
