I was able to take the inner screw and extend the rail to the outer hole to give the width that I needed. Looks pretty good. A nice little holder for Q-tips. He often has to do homework in the evening, and listening to a second graders required homework assignments is not always the most fun. I will be keeping it for a hat rack, as I do not want to hassle with the return. The product looked and worked fine, but the packaging is ruined. These shoes fit perfectly--I wear a size 8 and these fit perfectly. Will try another set and see how they hold up. I love it and will purchase it again Its very comfortable too!
