Patent attributes
A bracket adapted to be used in sets for supporting planter boxes, benches, and similar elongated items from multiple vertical supports such as the balusters on a deck railing. The bracket mounts securely and strongly on the baluster without requiring fasteners, and is easily adjusted up and down and removed as necessary. The bracket can be formed from a single piece of stock, for example using a metal rod formed into shape. The bracket has a generally triangular shape with an upper support arm terminating in a squared open hook that mounts from behind to engage the sides of the baluster, a lower angled support arm extending down and in from the upper arm toward the baluster, and a baluster-abutting foot portion that engages the face of the baluster when the upper arm is horizontal. An adapter can be used on the open end of the hook to ensure a tight fit with undersized balusters.
