I find those hooks to be an elegant, discreet solution. They are supposed to have springs in them to help them latch securely. I have found the springs are not absolutely necessary if the rivet that attaches the hook to the bracket is tight. A loose rivet could be tightened with a small ball peen hammer and a steel block.
