Vehicle retainer solution
A vehicle includes a surface that has a receptacle. The receptacle includes a perimeter wall that extends in an outward direction from an interior wall to a bezel that engages with the surface. A tab-receiving portion is defined by the perimeter wall. A closeout structure is coupled within the receptacle. The closeout structure is movable between an extended position and a retracted position.
Eyewear holder
A device is adapted for positioning or mounting onto a surface, for holding eyewear or eyewear lenses in a substantially upright or nearly vertical position. The eyewear holder has a base member beneath an elongated bridge supporting member. The bridge supporting member can have a top surface configured for balancing the eyewear in the upright position and for restricting backward and downward movements of the eyewear. The base member can support a front retaining wall for restricting forward movement of the balanced eyewear; it can support a back retaining wall for restricting backward movement of the balanced eyewear. The retaining walls can have lateral walls that restrict sideward movement of the eyewear. In embodiments having both front and back retaining walls, they can define a slot transverse to the bridge supporting member, the slot for holding the eyewear and for minimizing forward, backward, and rotational movement of the eyewear.

Over-the-door storage organizer
An organizer that is typically configured to hang from a door, the organizer including a base layer having a front surface and a back surface, and defining a shape of said organizer; at least one compartment provided on said base layer front surface; and a support component configured to provide structural support for said organizer, said support component including a first pocket provided on said base layer and extending at least part of a length of said base layer; a first support rod positioned within said first pocket; a second pocket provided on said base layer and extending at least part of said length of said base layer; and a second support rod positioned within said second pocket; wherein the first and second pockets join at a seam that permits the organizer to be folded along said seam in a lengthwise direction.
Hose retainer stands
A hose retainer stand is described. The retainer stand supports and organizes collections of hoses or other flexible members. In many applications, the retainer stand elevates hoses above ground to thereby reduce potential for damage to the hoses. Also described are methods of retaining and supporting hoses by use of the retainer stands.
Fastening device having a positionable carrying element
The invention relates to a fastening device having at least one positionable holding device, comprising a base plate having an extensively flat rear surface and a front surface, opposite the rear surface, wherein a first guide channel is formed on the front surface. The guide channel is delimited by side walls, wherein engagement areas are formed at least in sections on at least one of the side walls. According to the invention, a slide element is arranged in the guide channel, which can be displaced along the guide channel, wherein the slide element has a carrying element, wherein two spring elements are formed on the slide element, which can engage with the engagement surfaces of the guide channel in a blocking position, and wherein there is a movable locking element on the slide element, which fastens the spring elements at least in the blocking position.

Wreath and lantern hanger
A hanging element or a combined wreath and lantern hanger hangs a wreath and a lantern or other decorative element on the same hanger. The hanger may be a unitary, solid, and one-piece component that may hang a first element central to a second element. The first element may be a lantern, and the second element may be a wreath. The hanging element or the combined wreath and lantern hanger may include an arm that may be arranged to stabilize the first element and second element that may be hanging from a surface. The surface may be an interior door, an exterior door, a wall, a gate, a fence, a pillar, a column, and a lamppost. The hanger or the arm may prevent the first element and the second element from damaging the surface.

Adjustment mechanism for over-door hanging system and method of use
A storage management system having a crossbar and pair of vertical arms which are hung by flat hooks over a door. A pair of slides can slide up and down the vertical arms and are secured using an adjustment mechanism. These slides can provide storage solutions to a side of a door, freeing up other space for additional uses. Such storage solutions may include hooks, baskets, bags, or other storage elements. The adjustment mechanism may include a spring for being pulled out and automatically springing back into a number of adjustment slots along the slides. Alternatively, the adjustment mechanism could simply be screwed into the desired slot, locking the slide in place.
