Par-Mounted Sliding Accessories
The accessories tab includes options for adding items such: Tie racks (T), belt racks (B), garment rods (G), scarf racks (S), pull out mirrors (M), valet pins (P), and par-mounted hooks (H).
Select one of the above parts from the ‘Accessory’ pull down and pull into component. Left click to place at your desired height on the par, which will show as a bracketed dimension (such as 62” tall). It will round this number to the closest available bore hole. You must keep in mind how much space is needed for the items that will be using these accessories.
Note: Valet pins can also be placed on the front edge of a fixed shelf, in addition to partitions.
Before left clicking to place a second accessory, scroll the mouse wheel to change between the different options. This will save you time from having to select a whole new accessory from the pull-down. This feature may only work between belt, tie, scarf and garment rods.
The images to your right show what the following accessories look like in the elevation and 3D views, from top to bottom:
Tie, Belt, Scarf, Garment, Hook, Valet Pin, Mirror.
You can also “pull” them out in the 3D view, which is a realistic representation for your client.
If you are trying to add a par-mounted accessory to an outside partition that is shared with a bridging or connecting section, you may get a “Height Not Allowed” warning if the bridging component is too long, or if it gets in the way of where you are placing the accessory. This is usually seen when adding mirrors.
Even though you can’t always physically see it, the part may be clashing with the “bottom” of that section. You will know because it will turn green when you hover over it, like in the image to the right. To avoid this, you can “grab” the bottom of the bridging component and pull it higher up to wards the top of the Design Zone (see left). This will not affect your bridging component or shelf, but it will give you more usable space to place accessories.
You can edit or adjust your par-mounted accessory by right clicking and going into the Part Properties.
You can change the ‘Type’ without deleting the accessory and adding a new one. The Style, Finish and Depth can also be adjusted to better fit your space or design. Remember, you can apply these to other accessories, and it will apply to any par-mounted part that is listed under ‘Type’, as they are from the same family.
You can also globally change the finish of ALL accessories in the ‘Materials’ tab. Note that this will apply to poles, sliding accessories, shoe rails, cleat hooks, door and drawer hardware, baskets and TAG accessories. We have yet to discuss some of those accessories in this chapter.
You will see several finish options. ClosetCadPro will not apply a finish change to any accessory or part unless it is available as a finish for that part – Otherwise, it will pick the next closest finish.
