Need solution for mounting my window boxes!

18 years ago

Here's the problem:

I live on a 5th floor apartment, and I bought my window boxes when i lived lower in the building. Because I'm so high up now, the building owners will not let me have my plants hanging off to the outside of my balcony like I used to.

They were very comfortable there. Unfortuately, now that I have to reverse them, there is a whole new problem. The brackets that hold them grabbed onto the lip inside my rail quite easily when they faced out. Now, facing inside, they have nothing to grab onto and are way too angled down if I mount them using the same brackets.

I need to find a cheap (slash ... free) solution ... perhaps involving coat hangers or something similar. to mount these flower boxes toward the inside of my balcony.

Here is a diagram of how my rail looks (I know... I have mad paint skills):
