Weha Describes Benefits of its Countertop Support Brackets
CHARLOTTE, NC – Weha introduces its line of countertop support brackets that are made to replace corbels on granite, marble, quartz, quartzite countertop overhangs and kitchen islands. Made to be placed between 18 to 24 inches apart, most installations require three. As a result, Weha has conveniently packed the countertop support braces in packs of three. Additionally 12 2-inch wood screws also come with the set of three. This gives four screws per countertop brace bracket.
Each set of three countertop brackets are shrink wrapped with the screws. This allows the installer to grab a countertop bracket set and take it to the install without scratching the brackets or the brackets sliding around in the truck, and not having to remember to grab the screws. Simply take into the kitchen, open the pack and everything is provided for a quick scratch-free install.
The regular countertop support bracket comes with six countersink holes. This allows the bracket to be adjusted up to 2 1/4inches if needed. The provided screws will finish flush with the granite support bracket. The L-shaped brackets come with four recessed holes on the top and three on the side.
Each countertop support bracket is powder-coated gloss black for a high-end black polished finish. One edge of the countertop brace is flat and the other end is back beveled with slightly rounded corners. There are no sharp edges for the homeowner to scratch or cut themselves. And the bevel provides a nice touch transition from the bracket to the stone.
Weha also decided to go with a full1/4-inch-thick countertop brace bracket, which provides a solid stiff bracket that will fully support the overhang without flexing.
Weha produces the countertop support bracket at 2 1/2inches wide. This width gives plenty of structural support. And when placed at seams, it gives a full 1 1/4-inch-wide support on each piece of stone.
Weha countertop support brackets can be used with granite, marble, engineered stone, quartz, quartzite, concrete and all substrates.
All Weha countertop support brackets provide the correct and proper support needed for granite and stone overhangs.
