Wall mounting devices
Wall mounting assemblies and methods are disclosed. The assembly includes a bracket that has two frame members coupled at a hinge. Each frame member has a hook for engaging a recess or slot on a panel. The assembly further includes a panel that has edges that are configured to engage the edges of adjacent panels, without the need for tilting the panel to engage. Each panel has two slots for receiving the bracket. Bending the two frame members on the bracket causes the bracket's hooks to lock into the slots on the panel.
1. A bracket for a wall mounting assembly having a first and second recess, comprising:
a first frame member having an opening and a first hook that is sized and dimensioned to engage the first recess;
a second frame member having a second hook disposed through the opening of the first frame member, wherein the second hook is sized and dimensioned to engage the second recess;
wherein the first hook is a downward facing L-shaped hook and the second hook is an upward facing L-shaped hook;
wherein the first frame member and second frame member are rotatably coupled at a hinge such that the second frame member is capable of moving between a first position and a second position; and
wherein the second hook engages the second recess when the second frame member is in the first position and the second hook disengages the second recess when the second frame member is in the second position.
2. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the second frame member further comprises a handle portion angled with the second hook.
3. The bracket of claim 1 , further comprising an elongated member coupled with and extending from the first frame member for hanging an object.
4. The bracket of claim 3 , wherein the elongated member is removably coupled with the first frame member via a snap fitting.
5. The bracket of claim 1 , further comprising a first cover and a second cover sized and dimensioned to cover a front side of the first and second frame members.
6. The bracket of claim 5 , wherein the first and second covers slidably engage a first edge and a second edge of the first frame member.
7. The bracket of claim 1 , wherein the first and second hooks are disposed on a back side of the first member and further comprising a third hook rotatably coupled with the first frame member and disposed on a front side of the first frame member.
