Abstract
A bracket for mounting objects to a wall includes a base defining mounting holes for fasteners. An arm extends from the base and has a top, a bottom and a maximum width at the interconnection with the base. The mounting holes includes at least two that are spaced from another by a distance greater than a maximum width of the arm so that one of the mounting holes is outside the arm on one side of the arm and another of the mounting holes is outside the arm on the other side of the arm. At least a portion of the mounting holes is located above the top of the arm.
Claims19
An apparatus comprising:
- a mounting bracket having a first mounting arm and a second mounting arm connected by a main body, the first mounting arm and the second mounting arm each defining a mounting hole, at least a portion of a rear surface of the first mounting arm and at least a portion of a rear surface of the second mounting arm extending in a first plane for being positioned against a mounting surface;
- the main body extending between the first mounting arm and second mounting arm in a second plane substantially parallel to the first plane such that the main body is spaced from the mounting surface when the mounting bracket is secured thereto;
- and
- an arm having an attachment portion at an angle relative to a support portion, the attachment portion to be extended along the mounting surface in a space between the main body, the first mounting arm, and the second mounting arm, the support portion resting on the mounting bracket and extending away from the from the mounting surface,
- wherein at least a portion of the mounting holes of the first mounting arm and second mounting arm are above the arm.

A bracket comprising:
- a base having a main body and a first mounting arm and a second mounting arm extending from the main body, the first mounting arm spaced from the second mounting arm along the main body and defining a gap therebetween, the first mounting arm and second mounting arm each defining a mounting hole sized to receive a fastener to mount the bracket to a structure;
- an arm having an attachment portion at an angle relative to a support portion, the attachment portion sized to extend through the gap of the base to contact the structure, the support portion sized to rest on the main body of the base,
- wherein at least a portion of the mounting holes is above a top of the arm.
A bracket comprising:
- a base having a main body and a first mounting arm and a second mounting arm extending from the main body, the first mounting arm spaced from the second mounting arm along the main body and defining a gap therebetween, the first mounting arm and second mounting arm each defining a mounting hole sized to receive a fastener to mount the bracket to a structure;
- an arm having an attachment portion at an angle relative to a support portion, the attachment portion sized to extend through the gap of the base to contact the structure, the support portion sized to rest on the main body of the base,
- wherein the first mounting arm and the second mounting arm each include a proximal segment and a distal segment, the distal segments each defining the mounting holes,
- wherein the proximal segments of the first mounting arm and the second mounting arm are at an angle relative to the distal segments.
