ABSTRACT:
A bracket includes an anchor plate for mounting on the front face of a narrow vertical member such as a stud and having a channel-like opening for pivotally supporting a hanger member. The support member has a pair of fingers spaced apart a distance greater than the width of the vertical member and connected by a cross member integral with the fingers and including an offset central section having a pair of vertical legs. The side legs of the central section are spaced apart less than the width of the vertical member. When the support member is in an extended, operational position, the side legs rest against the vertical front face of the vertical member to limit further downward pivotal movement of the support member under the influence of gravity. The support member pivots upward with respect to the bracket to a retracted storage position where the fingers are stowed adjacent the sides of the vertical member and the side legs limit further rearward movement. In both extended and retracted positions, gravity biasing the support member to remain stable in the absence of position action to displace it.
