Abstract

An anti-theft device for securing one's personal belongings, such as a coat, handbag and the like, to the interior wall surface of a commode door wherein a bail is secured to the door by a plate. The bail has spaced, oppositely extending bent threaded end portions having a sleeve threadably mounted thereon for closing the space therebetween. The loop or handle of a person's belongings is inserted through the space between the bent threaded end portions and supported by one of the bent end portions. The sleeve is turned to close the space between the end portions, and thus, secures the handle or loop within the confines of the bail. A chain is connectable to the bail for securing a personal belonging thereto.
