Premium - Hold It Mate Multi Use Hook Kit for Vertical Spindled Railings, Hang Flower Baskets Chimes Bird Feeder 15LBS Weight Limit

I might be exaggerating, but the ingenious design of this heavy-duty shepherd’s hook had me exclaiming: "Whoever designed this should win a Nobel Prize!" It’s that impressive, really. Despite being just a hook, its flawless functionality and simplicity of design are truly award-worthy. Our family owns a lot of well-designed products, but what stands out with this one is its durability and how intuitively it works right out of the box. Setup: Everything you need is included, with directions so simple, they fit on the back of the box. The box contains the front and back metal pieces, three bolts, and a nut. This extremely sturdy shepherd's hook connects securely to your railing, accommodating even unexpected sizes — my railing needed the middle bolt, not the longest one, proving its versatility. Installation: Following the clear directions, you connect the pieces to the railing using the appropriate-length bolt and nut. Then, slide the hook connector over the bar. It’s really that easy. Usage: I tested it with a brand-new ten-pound DynaTrap DT2000XLP, and it held solid as a rock. The design, which pinches the vertical railing posts, enhances friction, adding to its stability. This is great for heavy items but might be overkill for just light bird feeders — yet, it shows the system's robust capability. Potential Improvements: The square hook bottom that connects to the railing piece has a hole in the bottom, suggesting a possibility for even tighter security between the bars and the hook bottom? Suggestions for the Manufacturer: To help future customers, I recommend enriching the Amazon listing with a broader visual selection of installation scenarios. Showing the hook system on various types of railings would illustrate its versatility and help potential buyers visualize its use in their own spaces. In conclusion, this product inspired me to say something quite outlandish, something I’ve never said before. I hope my experience instills the confidence to consider this hook system for your needs. It’s a robust, user-friendly solution that impressively supports even hefty loads without a hitch. If your railings are up to U.S. code, and fall within the specifications in this product's listing, you’ll likely have no problems at all.

Easy to install, they provide three different lengths of connector pins so it will fit almost any railing. Very sturdy for heavier pots and looks great.

High quality, easy-to-install bird feeders or hanging plants on your porch. Simple design that makes it a dream to set up. I did have a question for the company and received an immediate response from the company founder. I highly recommend these kits - I now have 4 of them!

Easy to install within a few minutes. Very sturdy and versatile.

Works well to not have a perfect measurement of railing and instead mount slightly lower between deck slats. Works well for a light chime/light for us. Not super sturdy so we bring it in during wind.

I was surprised one day by a hummingbird on my balcony so I knew I needed to get a feeder out. I was concerned I would not find a solution that was affordable for my situation. I'm renting. I'm not allowed to hang anything outside of the railings. The balcony railing is plastic and very thick. I saw this and decided to try it. It's very sturdy and seems like it'll last a long time. I appreciate having a wide variety of options for attaching to different sized railings. Sure enough, it holds a feeder up for me and I've had plenty of hungry visitors since! I'll be looking into more in the future when I have the budget to go crazy on them.

I had tried another bird feeder stand to hang my bird feeder (we have cement so we can’t install a really tall stand into the ground like I had before- I had got a tall in-ground hanger from a store called wild birds unlimited that was expensive but amazing if you have grass/dirt to install it in), but anyway for over a year the birds were very skeptical and would rarely approach my bird feeder I think because it wasn’t high enough. I have a higher fence and installed this and now the birds are fighting over getting to my bird feeder. There are about 5-6 birds taking turns at the moment. If your fence is not very high I’m not sure if this would work as well (as birds like to be higher), but it’s perfect in my yard! Very happy to have birds again! (Where we lived before was near forest and we had birds all the time until we moved here.) this was very simple and easy to install. I have a heavy bird feeder and it has been holding up well for a few weeks now. We had some wind and rain recently and no problems. I might buy more of these! I would also be interested if they made some with even longer arm so that it’s even higher for the birdies 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Versatile, strong, and easily adjustable. My second time to purchase this. Highly recommend.

I bought 4 of those two years ago, in 2022 and I am very satisfied with the product! It is sturdy, easy to install, affordable. I use them to hang my bird feeders. Even when the wind is very strong, they hold in place. I am aiming to buy another one! Thank you!

I was looking for some way to create a bit of privacy on our deck and came across these hooks. They fit the bill perfectly! The are sturdy and adjustable so you can vary them to whatever height you like vs being only able to hang of the top rail. I’m so happy I found these! Would definitely recommend!!

Arrived promptly and well packaged. Took a few tries to figure out the mounting instructions, but they are actually very easy to put up once you figure it out. Loved them so much I immediately bought 2 more so we had more bird feeding stations. Then I bought 6 more to hang flower baskets from this spring. Couldn’t be happier

I’m very happy with this purchase. It’s easy to set up and works great!

The hook kit was easy to install and it works well with my railing. The arm is a little shorter than I expected but that’s okay. I gave it four stars because it’s a little over priced for what it is.
