ABSTRACT:
A bracket has outwardly projecting L-shaped support arms for use in installing sheet material, such as drywall or sheetrock, on a wall. The bracket includes a base having holes for temporarily fastening the bracket to a stud of the wall. The support arms of the bracket extend horizontally from the bracket to support the edge of sheet material. When a pair of brackets is installed on the studs of a wall to be covered with sheet material, a single person can install the sheet material on a wall by first resting the sheet on the support arms of the brackets and then easily positioning and fastening the sheet to the wall. The brackets can then be removed and be reused to install sheet material on another section of wall. The bracket further includes a flange that is easily grasped by either hand when installing or removing the bracket.
