Closet Maid offers many different sizes and lengths of wire shelving that is lightweight yet sturdy. All hardware and shelving can be removed just as easily for painting, repairs or replacement.
Step 1
Remove the retaining screws from each end of the clothes hanger bar by backing them out with a Phillips screwdriver. Lift the bar straight up from the white plastic "J" hooks and place it aside. Remove the "J" hooks by pushing them up from the bottom until they snap free of the shelf, then lower them through the wire supports on the shelf. Skip this step if your shelving does not have a clothes hanger bar.
