An anchoring device (30) for securing a mounting rail (20) of a solar panel (S) mounting system (100) to a support structure. The anchoring device (30) comprises: - a footing (31) to be rigidly fastened to the support structure; - a coupling member (35) for connection with the mounting rail (20); The coupling member (35) is connected to the footing (31) via a spacer member. The anchoring device (30) includes means for selectively varying the position of the coupling member (35) on the spacer member, thereby varying a distance or spacing of the coupling member (35) from the footing (31) to adjust or set an elevation of the mounting rail (20) relative to the support structure. The invention also includes a mounting system (100) for mounting one or more solar panels (S), comprising a plurality of elongate mounting rails (20) adapted to be arranged and secured spaced apart and substantially parallel to one another, wherein each of the mounting rails (20) is adapted to receive and support an edge region (E) of a solar panel (S) such that each solar panel (S) extends between at least two mounting rails (20) and a plurality of said anchoring devices (30) for securing each of the mounting rails (20) to a support structure, such as a roof structure. |
