A modular closet system provides reconfigurable closet capacity and an appearance of a customized closet in any of the configurations. The system includes at least two sideframes cooperating to define a space therebetween creating a closet module when assembled. A series of through holes on an inside surface of the sideframes are used to attach a variety of storage devices from the system's sides, which may be re-positioned by user design. When assembled, any of the fasteners used to attach the storage devices are hidden from a front view perspective of the system. Once assembled, the perimeter of the storage devices cooperates with the frames to block the view of the fasteners. Some embodiments may extend closet capacity by including a hanging rod system that connects two frame modules together via the through hole system on respective closet modules, which when assembled also blocks the view of any fasteners.

A wardrobe capable of being moved into and out of a hotel room, and into and out of a storage room, is disclosed. The wardrobe comprises a top, a bottom, two side walls, a back, and four wheels along the bottom, where the wardrobe would otherwise touch the floor. The wheels can optionally be lockable wheels. The wardrobe also includes a means for attachment to one or more walls in a room in which the wardrobe will be used. Suitable means for attachment include holes through which pins can be inserted, pins which fit into holes in a wall, Velcro or other hook and loop attachments, straps, ropes, magnets, clips, cotter pins, and the like. The wardrobe can optionally include one or more additional elements, including one or more doors, one or more drawers, shelves, closet rods, tie/belt racks, mirrors, cubby holes, a cover for the wheels, a safe, and crown, chair, and/or base molding.

A mountable hanging structure may be mounted between two intersecting walls forming a corner. The hanging structure may comprise a rod comprising a body with a curved section extending between first and second ends and a mounting assembly comprising two retainers. Each of the retainers may comprises (1) a base configured for mounting to one of the intersecting walls, (2) a flange extending from the base for receiving a respective end of the rod, wherein the flange comprises one or more holding elements configured to receive the ends of the rod and prevent the rod from rotating relative to the base, and (3) a shroud configured for connecting to the base and comprising a bore for receiving an end of the rod. The base and the shroud may comprise interlocking members for interlocking the shroud to the base to mount the rod.

A kit is provided that, when assembled, forms a unit of furniture. The kit includes side panels that can reversibly slide into an opening formed in the sides of the front and side panels. The kit may include multiple locking pins and cleats to restrict movement of the top and side panels. The kit may include positioning wedges and/or locking wedges to restrict relative movement of the panels and thus improve the stability of the unit. Also provided are methods of assembling the unit of furniture.

A system has a hoist system to lift a payload to a position adjacent to a ceiling of a room Image sensor systems collect visual data and payload depth data within the payload and ambient depth data within the room. A controller is connected to the hoist system and the image sensor systems. The controller is configured to control the motion of the hoist system. The motion of the hoist system is controlled in part by the ambient depth data from the room

An improved locker seat includes a pair of spaced-apart upstanding sidewalls having a pair of lateral edges. A generally horizontal seat is disposed between the lateral edges of the sidewalls. In a first mode, an air source is connected to an airway formed within the seat to create an airflow. The airflow from the air source creates a first temperature differential to cool the seat. In a second mode, an external or internal heat source provides heat to a top surface of the seat, creating a second temperature differential to heat the seat. The first and second temperature differential are distributed across the top surface of the seat. The seat is hinged to be movable about the hinge between an open and a closed position.

A closet assembly includes a fixed portion that is configured to be disposed at a closet opening and an operable door portion that is configured to move relative to the fixed portion between a closed position and an open position. A hinge assembly is configured to attach between the operable door portion and the structural opening, such that the operable door portion moves via the hinge assembly. The hinge assembly includes an upper base bracket and a lower base bracket that each have a plate portion and a cylindrical projection extending substantially orthogonal from a planar extent of the plate portion. The hinge assembly also includes a door bracket that has a vertical member extending between upper and lower horizontal members. The upper and lower horizontal members are pivotally coupled with the cylindrical projections of the respective upper and lower base brackets.
