Abstract
Abstract A bracket type member is affixed to a sliding door at a first end thereof and extends upward in a plane perpendicular to the door whereby the second end of the member is above the first end and spaced from the door and extends between an end ring of a drape hanging from a rod extending above, parallel to, and spaced from, the door, and the ring next-adjacent thereto. The member thus moves the drape in the same direction as the door.
