hatstands

Vertical cap perches

Hatstands are upright poles or frames with hooks or pegs for hanging hats and coats, typically placed near an entrance.

The design varies from simple wooden posts to ornate Victorian pieces.

In British slang, completely hatstands means utterly crazy—rhyming slang from "hatstands" to "barking mad" via "Barking and Dagenham."
