Abstract
This invention pertains to brackets for mounting fixtures and the like to buildings, especially at elevated locations and to servicing such fixtures. Brackets of the invention include a wall mount subassembly for mounting directly to e.g. a vertical wall of the building, and an interface subassembly which serves as an interface between the wall mount subassembly and a fixture, optionally also a fixture holder. The interface subassembly preferably is mounted for pivotation with respect to the wall mount subassembly, whereby the fixture secured to the interface subassembly can be pivoted toward or over the roof or other safe place on the building for installation or servicing of the fixture or fixture holder. In some embodiments, the combination of the fixture, fixture holder, and interface subassembly is readily removed, or installed onto, the wall mount subassembly as a unit.
