ABSTRACT:
An interlocking hanging system including a mounting bracket which may be secured to a supporting structure, a support panel which attaches to and hangs from the mounting bracket, and one or more article holders, such as hooks or trays, which attach to and hang from the support panel. The support panel attaches to the mounting bracket, as do the article holders to the support panel, by upwardly extending arcuate hooks which pivotally corkscrew into and mate with horizontal channel structures, each with an inwardly extending lip, on the mounting bracket and support panel, respectively. The mounting bracket, support panel, and article holders are horizontal extrusions, allowing the article holders and support panel to be adjustably positioned horizontally within the support panel and mounting bracket, respectively. A plurality of horizontal channel structures and lips on the support panel allows vertical positioning of article holders as desired, and one or more extension panels, similar to the support panel, may be cascadably hung from the support panel. Non-concentric inner and outer radii of the various horizontal channel structures provide secure attachment at full insertion of the arcuate hooks, yet allow easy removal. The article holders may be removed from one hanging system and taken to another compatible hanging system, allowing transport of items such as bait, nails, etc. from one location to another. The article holders may be removably secured to the support panel using VELCRO or double-sided tape, and the mounting bracket may contain recessed strip lighting for illumination.
