L Bracket Countertop Support Bracket (Aluminum)
The L-Bracket angle support for countertops gives virtually invisible support to granite, quartz, marble, other natural stone or heavy kitchen countertops. The perfect concealed countertop overhang bracket.
Note: This bracket MUST be used with a knee or pony wall or inside a cabinet reinforced with a 2x6. If you are looking for a bracket for shelving we have those here.
How to Determine What Length to Use:
Bracket is sized in length tip to tip horizontally; therefore a 9 inch bracket is 9 inches tip to tip horizontally. [do no use vertical tang in measurements]
When determining lengths stay away from outer edge 2-4 inches and do not forget to add in the thickness of the knee/pony wall or the 2X6 inside the cabinet.
Example of how to determine the size L Bracket you will need:
If you have a knee/pony wall: Let's say you have a 12 inch overhang, plus 4 inch in the knee/pony wall, equals 16 inches, minus 3 inches outer edge, means you would need a 13 inch L-Bracket.
We recommend placing an L Bracket on each stud in your knee/pony wall for maximum countertop protection.
If using a 2x6: Let's say you have a 12 inch overhang, plus 1 1/2 inches for the 2x6, plus 1/2" {measure thickness of your cabinet / this is an example} for the thickness of the back wall of your cabinet, minus 3 inches outer edge, means you need an 11 inch L Bracket.
We recommend spacing your bracket 16-20 inches apart when using a 2x6 for maximum granite protection.
Important Note: We do not recommend using the L Bracket for shelving, this bracket is designed to be used inside cabinets or over knee/pony wall for countertop protection. For shelving we recommend our Regular Shelf Bracket or Large Shelf Bracket.
