A universal store frame bracket profile is provided for coupling to one of multiple different store frame openings. Embodiments of the bracket include a bracket body with a platform support surface, a first tooth feature, and a second tooth feature. The first and second tooth features extend in a first direction from an edge of the bracket body. In embodiments, the first tooth feature includes an upper and lower portion, while the second tooth feature includes a lower portion. A cavity formed between the first tooth feature and the bracket body, and the second tooth feature and the bracket body, provides a coupling mechanism for mating the universal bracket to one of multiple store frames.
