Abstract
A hanger clip is disclosed comprising: a housing and a clip member for attaching the hanger to a surface or protrusion. The clip member is connected to the housing and comprises a follower, wherein the clip member is configured to move between an open configuration and a closed configuration based on the position of the follower. The housing and clip are configured to receive a cam member which is configured to rotate within the housing to change the position of the follower to move the clip member between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The hanger clip can therefore be remotely actuatable using a tool attached to a pole which can be manipulated from ground level.
