An anchoring system for extruded columns which is useful in supporting structures in a way that does not require drilling or screwing into the column structure. The anchoring system is comprised of brackets which are mounted against extruded columns by inserting a bracket blade into place between a gasket and a structural medium. The anchoring brackets are preferably composed of two pieces which link together for increased support. The anchoring system can support a variety of mountings which can be either physically attached to the anchoring brackets or rest atop the anchoring brackets.
