The L-Bracket metal angle supports for countertops by The Original Granite Bracket® gives virtually invisible support to granite, quartz, marble and other natural stone or heavy kitchen countertops.

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. 

When installed this steel countertop bracket provides an open space for chairs and leg room, meaning you no longer need to use bulky wooden corbels. 

The L Bracket  is a low profile, non-intrusive support bracket made of 1/2 inch thick by 2-1/2 inch wide American steel on the horizontal piece [see listing for length] and the vertical piece [tang] is made of 1/4 inch by 2-1/2 inch X 6 inch long wide American steel.

Horizontal Piece Dimensions:

 Length ……..…. [see listing]

 Width …………. 2 ½ inches

 Thickness …..…. ½ inch

 Countersunk Hole Diameter… 1/4 inch

Vertical Piece [Tang] Dimensions:

Length.......6 inches [do not include this piece in determining what length to use]

Width …………. 2 ½ inches

Thickness..... 1/4 inch

Hole Diameter.....1/4 inch

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 stay from outer edge 3 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 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 countertop protection.

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 coutnertop protection. For shelving we recommend our Regular Shelf Bracket or Large Shelf Bracket.
