Abstract

An adjustable adapter bracket is provided for use with an apertured support member. The bracket provides support at a selected elevation on the support member for shelving, display components, and the like. The adapter bracket includes a body that defines a load bearing region on which a portion of the shelf or display component rests. A hook element is carried by the body and is movable relative to the body to project beyond the body for entering into one of the apertures and engaging the support member. A nut is provided for cooperating with the body and hook element for adjusting the orientation and amount of projection of the hook element relative to the body.
