Abstract
A rail and bracket system for mounting a floating structure or series of floating structures, such as one or more cabinets, to a vertical substrate is provided. The rail and bracket system comprises a rail component and a pair of end support brackets configured to slidably engage with the rail component. The rail and bracket system provides easy alignment and installation of floating structure(s) onto a vertical substrate with no legs or back panel required for such installation, utilizes tandem weight distribution to support and secure the respective floating structure(s) to the vertical substrate, and is configured to support one or more floating structures with sufficient depth (up to about 30 inches) while providing installed stability to the respective floating structure(s) to avoid deformation at heavy loads in excess of 250 pounds.
