         9 . A wall installation according to  claim 1 , wherein the first and second uprights further include a first bottom fastener and second bottom fastener configured to fasten the first and second uprights to the wall. 
     
     
         10 . A storage system comprising:
 a wall installation according to  claim 1 ; and   at least one storage accessory having first and second fastener devices spaced apart from each other by a first distance, the first and second fastener devices being configured to be removably fastened respectively to the first and second uprights.   
     
     
         11 . A storage system according to  claim 10 , wherein wherein:
 each of the first and second mounting means of the wall installation comprises at least a first top crossbar and a first bottom crossbar configured to cooperate respectively with a top end portion and a bottom end portion of the first and second fastener devices; and wherein   each of the first and second fastener devices includes a top end portion and a bottom end portion configured to cooperate respectively with top portions of the first top crossbars and with the first bottom crossbars of the first and second uprights.   
     
     
         12 . A storage system according to  claim 11 , wherein each of the top end portions forms a hook arranged to co-operate with the first top crossbars of the first and second uprights. 
     
     
         13 . An installation kit comprising:
 a wall installation according to  claim 1 ; and   verification means configured to be fastened to the first upright and to verify that the first longitudinal direction extends in a substantially horizontal direction during the mounting step.   
     
     
         14 . An installation kit according to  claim 13 , wherein the verification means are configured to be removably fastened to the first upright.
