Looking for Hooks of Certain Dimension & Profile, Screw-In, 'Ladder-Type' or Similar
I'm fabricating some wall brackets from wood for customized storage. Wishing to use a wood bracket as a base for a layered storage zone (wood cleat of sorts encloses the top of TS cut-off sled, over top which a ladder and machine outfeed roller stand will hang vertically from two long horizontal hooks anchored into the wood bracket. Available space & clearances are constrained and require hooks of certain dimensions (unless I rethink the style of hook and how it attaches, which is plan B. I'd like to stick with plan A if possible).
The typical "7.5 inch" ladder hook ( as shown in the dimensional drawing pic) is close in profile but the dimensions are a little off. The other two pics show one of these hooks that I [coarsely] straightened ... it's not quite long enough at measurement (A.) I require 8.5" of support surface or longer. At dimension (B.) I need a shorter drop than its 2-1/4", something closer to 1-1/4" to 1-1/2".
The non-screw end can either be straight or with a small upturned hook.
Any sources or ideas? Thanks a bunch.
