ABSTRACT:
A wall hanger particularly adapted for supporting heavy objects includes as a base, a plate which defines a front and a rear face, the rear face being contiguous with the external surface of the wall when the device is installed. A hanger element extends from the front face of the plate and includes a supporting surface for an object to be carried by the device. An arcuate arm extends from the rear face of the plate and is adapted to be inserted through a hole in the wall. The free end of the arcuate arm is blunt so as to provide support for the device when the end of the arm contacts the rear surface of the wall member, but avoids any penetration of the rear surface of the wall member. In a preferred embodiment, the arcuate arm includes a flange which extends substantially the entire length of the arm and which extends downwardly to provide a reinforcing rib along the length of the arm. Preferably, the flange is notched adjacent the arm where it joins the rear face of the plate. The rear face of the plate may be provided with a cleat which is adapted to penetrate the wall member and which serves as a further aid in the prevention of the twisting of the device.
