Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the brackets, ensure your timber sleepers are cut square and clean of debris. Place the bracket against the joint to verify the flush fit before marking your pilot holes. Use appropriate heavy-duty screws or bolts compatible with exterior timber applications to mount the bracket securely.
Regarding compatibility, these brackets are designed for standard timber sleepers. For maximum longevity, avoid using them with chemically treated timbers that contain high levels of corrosive agents, or ensure the use of stainless steel hardware to prevent galvanic reaction. To care for your installation, periodically inspect the screws for tightness after the first season of temperature-related timber expansion and contraction.
