FAQs
What is the maximum weight capacity of this bracket?
While capacity depends on the surface and fixings used, this bracket is built with heavy-duty steel designed to support standard residential hanging baskets.
Can this be used on a wooden fence?
Yes, it can be mounted to wood, provided the fence post is thick enough to hold the screws securely without splintering.
Are mounting screws included?
Hardware requirements vary by wall material; please verify the contents of your specific packaging to see if suitable fixings were included.
Is this bracket suitable for coastal environments?
The durable finish is designed for general garden use, but in high-salt environments, it is recommended to apply an extra layer of clear coat for added protection.
Can I paint over the silver finish?
Yes, you can use a high-quality metal primer and exterior spray paint if you wish to change the color of the bracket.
Troubleshooting
Bracket feels wobbly after installation
Check that the wall plugs are the correct size for the drill hole and ensure the screws are tightened completely.
Signs of rust appearing on the surface
Gently scrub the affected area with a soft brush and apply a small amount of matching exterior-grade paint or a clear protective sealant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, hold the bracket against your chosen surface and mark the screw holes with a pencil. Use a masonry drill bit if attaching to brick or stone, and ensure you use appropriate wall plugs for the weight load. For care, wipe down the bracket with a damp cloth at the beginning and end of each season to remove dust and debris. Periodically inspect the screws for any signs of loosening due to vibration or wind, and touch up any paint chips if the surface is scratched to prevent premature oxidation.
