Abstract: A system and method for magnetically mounting a sign flush at a ceiling, window, or wall location that includes modular panels that are removably connected to one another to form a sign board stack. The sign board stack is mounted or unmounted from a prominent display location using a pole end gripper without the need for a ladder. The sign stack extends from a mounting strip having a holder at which the sign stack is fastened, and the gripper engages the mounting strip at an offset grasping portion disposed laterally of the holder. The panels have flanges at the top edge to fit into the holder of the mounting strip and clips at the bottom edge to hold a flange of a panel connected below it. Channel tracks are formed on the panels to hold strip sign elements, some of which may include accordion or spiral bound numbers or messages.

Abstract: A track and cleat system includes a track attached by suction cups or other means to a window or other vertical surface. The track has a projection onto which a cleat is attached. The cleat includes a track receiving opening that fits onto the track. A banner holder is provided adjacent to the track receiving opening. The banner holder may use friction grips or magnets to hold a banner, sign or display. The cleat has an offset grip portion in a T-shape that is spaced from the banner holder and gripped by a gripper on a pole to move the banner and cleat to a display position on the track and to remove the banner and cleat from the display position by removing the cleat from the track. Various banner holding devices are provided, as well as various track and cleat shapes and various means of attachment.

Abstract: A system and method for mounting a display or sign to a ceiling, wall or window frame includes an elongated channel having magnets that are affixed to a ceiling grid and mounting hooks or the like to suspend the sign or display from the channel. The channel includes high friction strips on a neck for engagement by a pole end gripper on a pole for mounting the channel on the ceiling while the user stands on the floor. End caps may be mounted on the channel. Mounting plates may be affixed to the ceiling or wall for magnetically engaging the channel. A wall mount channel includes an offset neck for gripping by the pole end gripper. A magnetic clip including a string for suspending a display may be mounted with the pole end gripper. An embodiment of the channel includes hooks for engaging an open girder ceiling.

Abstract: An adapter for hanging a clothes hanger or other display device from a ceiling or other mounting location includes a top plate on which are mounted magnets. A neck is connected to the top plate and a channel portion is connected to the neck. An opening is formed in the neck of a size and shape to accept a hook of a clothes hanger. The opening may be shaped to permit a loop end of the hanger hook to pass only when the adapter and hanger are aligned with one another.

Abstract: A holder for a display arm includes a body from which extend two bent arms for mounting in a pegboard or slat wall. A tapered slot at the top receives a mounting end of the display arm. The body is inverted and flipped over and magnetically attached to a steel surface by a magnet in the body. A second tapered slot at the top of the body in the inverted orientation receives a mounting end of the display arm.

Abstract: A display holder includes an extruded member having a top surface from which extends a T-shaped grip portion for engagement by a gripper at the end of a pole. Spaced from the grip portion is a brace on the end of which is a web connected to a C-channel. The C-channel receives a display or sign such as a dowel in a sleeve of the display which allows the user to maximize sign size, head space or lines of sight. The C-channel also can be used to receive a block end hook, a cord suspender, or a clip. A ring may be provided through a hole in the web. The display holder is mounted or un-mounted safely from floor level in one single motion to a ceiling by magnets on the top surface or to a wall by magnets on the brace.

Abstract: A ceiling clip for mounting a sign or display includes a spool portion on which is wound a cord that is selectively unwound to a desired length and attached in a line clip for suspending the sign or display from the cord. The ceiling clip includes first and second flanges wherein the second flange is shaped to fit into a channel. The second flange is tapered for insertion into the channel and is of a width to frictionally engage the channel. Multiple ceiling clips may be inserted into the channel. The channel has magnets, hooks, interlocking cleats, or other mounting means that engage a mounting location to mount the channel, ceiling clips, and the sign or display at the mounting location with a single mounting motion. The channel may be mounted or unmounted using a gripper on a pole.
