Abstract
A vertical mounting assembly that allows for effortless, secure, and versatile hanging of wall/vertical surface mounted frames, pictures, mirrors, or similar items (described as décor herein). The instant assembly features a two-piece design, consisting of a mounting bracket and anchoring receiver, requiring only one tool for installation and the subsequent hanging of wall/vertical surface décor. The instant assembly further allows for precise alignment, prevents décor from becoming crooked or unbalanced, and allows for décor to become quickly re-oriented on a wall/vertical surface.
