- a first lower arm connected to a lower portion of the first support member, wherein the first lower arm extends in the first direction from the first support member, and wherein the first lower arm is adapted to be connected to the wall by a second bracket;
- a second support member spaced apart from the first support member;
- a second upper arm connected to an upper portion of the second support member, wherein the second upper arm extends in the first direction from the second support member, and wherein the second upper arm is adapted to be connected to the wall by the first bracket;
- a second lower arm connected to a lower portion of the second support member, wherein the second lower arm extends in the first direction from the second support member, and wherein the second lower arm is adapted to be connected to the wall by the second bracket;
- wherein the first support member and the second support member are substantially vertically orientated and substantially parallel to one another;
