Abstract: Brackets for attaching objects to surfaces are described. One bracket includes a first leg that is attachable to the surface and a second leg that is attachable to the object. The object-facing side includes a slot extending through an object facing-side of the second leg. The slot is configured to receive a fastener for attaching the second leg to the object. Along a length of the slot, a width of the slot tapers from a first width at a first position along the length of the slot to a second width at a second position along the length of the slot. The second width is narrower than the first width. Methods for attaching objects to surfaces are also described.
