Claim:
A support system for mounting a door on an overhead track, the door having an upper edge, the door being attached through the upper edge to a carriage that rides on the overhead track, the carriage including a support rod that extends down from the carriage to a lower end, the support rod having a discontinuity at the lower end, the system comprising: a bracket that is adapted for mounting along the upper edge of the door, the bracket including a bridging portion that includes an aperture therethrough, the aperture being adapted for accepting the support rod therethrough; an engagement bar, the engagement bar being adapted for engaging the discontinuity on the support rod at least one location along the engagement bar; and a spring that is mounted between the bracket and the engagement bar such that the spring biases the engagement bar to a position where the engagement bar engages the support rod, so that the door is suspended from the track through the carriage by inserting the discontinuity through the bracket and engaging the discontinuity with the engagement bar, trapping the lower end of the support rod through the aperture in the bracket.
