A device for attaching items to walls, ceilings etc. comprises a plurality of cells wherein each cell comprises a contact fixing and a coupling, and wherein each is attached to its neighbour by a means, such as a hinge or flexible joint, allowing articulation therebetween. The device further has a means for locking the articulation between adjacent cells. The contact fixing advantageously comprises one or more magnets, allowing the device to attach to suitable metals such as the side of a vehicle. The device allows a strong fixing to be obtained, from the combined fixing action of multiple cells, whilst allowing removal a single cell at a time. The invention further extends to an associated article - which may act as the means for locking the articulation - for attaching to the device, such as a shelf, rack or other item. The article may have attachment points arranged to couple to multiple cells, and, when attached, to maintain the cells in a fixed positional relationship to each other. |
