Abstract: a modular wall mounted shelf-like rack holding system with a mounting frame which can be installed in a vertical or horizontal orientation. Cross cut-out mounting points allow hanger brackets to be attached and interlocked with the mounting frame for vertical support of heavy cans, whether the mounting frame is installed vertically or horizontally, allowing the end user to choose to install the ultra rack in any useable horizontal or vertical space for storage of gallon paint cans or the like. Cans are snapped into arms which arc out from either side of the hanger bracket and then slid down onto a raised support plate which fits into the recess in the bottom of the can to securely retain it, allowing for storage of paint cans or other similar containers in narrow areas of unused wall space such as in a garage, a basement, or in a work truck or van.
