The Signature Hook: Custom Over-Door & Cubicle Hanger
Want to put your mark on your own office space? Customize your own nameplate hanger for office partitions, cubicles, or home doors.
This is a fully customizable OpenSCAD generator that allows you to create personalized, heavy-duty hooks.
I originally designed these to make custom name hooks for people at work, but the geometry is highly flexible. Whether you need a 40mm gap for an office partition or a 35mm gap for a standard interior door, you can dial in the exact dimensions you need.
Updated the code to make the customisation options a bit more clear and the initial model should be more ‘ready to print’ with your own name added
Features:
- Fully Parametric: Adjust hook width, partition gap, text size, font, and spacing directly in the MakerLab Customizer.
- Auto-Scaling Geometry: Most of the scaling is done automatically, please note if you use a large font like in my photo's you may have to extend the vertical bar and move the text using the text offset slider.
- Structural Fillets: Features built-in gussets/ribs inside the 90-degree bends to distribute stress and stop the hook from snapping under the weight of heavy coats or laptop bags, turn this up if you need to hang heavier items.
- Wall Mount Option: Don't have a partition? Select the "Wall Mount" option in the dropdown to automatically generate countersunk screw holes so you can mount it flush to any wall or solid door.
- Two Text Styles for the wall mounted option: Choose to have your name extruded outward (3D) or cleanly embossed into the front face.
Printing Instructions: This model was specifically programmed to be printed lying flat on its side.
- Printing on the side aligns the layer lines along the length of the hook, maximizing structural strength and preventing snap-offs.
- Printing the cubicle hanger or if you use the "Embossed" text option with a wall mount and lay the model flat, the entire hook prints flawlessly with zero supports required.
- If hanging heavier items I recommend printing with an increased wall count, wall thickness and you can turn up the hook fillet setting if needed.

Boost MeIf you print one of these and like how it turned out, I would massively appreciate it if you could hit the "Boost" button or leave a make photo. I originally just designed this for a few colleagues around the office and it is my first model upload, so it would be great seeing some out in the wild. Happy printing!
