Abstract
A hanging bracket device includes an L-shaped main body having shaft housing positioned along the top surface at a location adjacent to the back end. The housing includes a pair of channels extending from the front end to the back end of the housing body. A pair of engagement posts each having a handle an elongated shaft, and a latch portion are positioned within the channels such that the latch portions extend outward from the back end of the housing at a location adjacent to the bend. The engagement posts are positioned to align with a pair of spline channels on a screen enclosure frame member and rotate between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the posts secure the main body onto the frame member, and a hook receives items to be suspended from the frame member.
