Patent attributes
An adjustable hanger assembly is provided that includes a slider base and a slider that can be adjusted vertically within the slider base and held in a vertical position by an engagement with the slider base. A spring provided in the slider base enables the slider to be maintained in a normally engaged, locked position. By pushing the slider in, toward to the slider base, for example, with a finger or thumb, the slider can be disengaged from the slider base and moved up or down. The assembly can also include a mounting bracket for fixedly securing the assembly to a wall. The mounting bracket can engage the slider base and can be configured to enable the slider base to be adjusted horizontally with respect to the mounting bracket. The hanger assembly can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally after being fixedly secured to a wall.
