Hanger for attaching items to a chain link type fence

A releasable hanger for hooking over and engaging diagonal rod or wire sections, the hanger being of serpentine shape and fabricated with a U-shaped cantilever arm of inverted T cross-sectional construction, blunted at the upper tip, and having an expanded bight for maintaining vertical loads;

• the rearward portion of the cantilevered arm being extended into a narrow inverted U-shaped, load-bearing hook of T cross-sectional construction, which then extends downward and terminates in a beveled rearward-facing J-shaped hook which has its throat curved to engage the next lower major extension or diagonal wire or rod, said load-bearing look being narrower at the mouth of its U-shape than at the bight of its U-shape, whereby a diagonal rod or wire section may be captured therein.
