FAQs

What materials can this angle bracket be used with?

This angle bracket is ideal for creating strong bonds between timber, masonry, and steel.

Do I need to pre-drill holes?

Pre-drilling pilot holes, especially in timber, is recommended to prevent splitting and ensure easier screw insertion. For masonry or steel, use appropriate drilling techniques and fixings.

What type of screws should I use?

Use screws or bolts appropriate for the materials being joined. For timber, wood screws are suitable. For masonry, use masonry screws or anchors. For steel, use self-tapping screws or bolts with nuts.

Is this bracket suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the bracket is designed for durability. However, for exposed outdoor use, it is recommended to use corrosion-resistant fixings to prevent rust and ensure longevity.

Does the brown colour fade over time?

The brown finish is designed for durability, but prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays or extreme weather conditions may cause some fading over extended periods.

Can I paint or stain this bracket?

While the brown finish is functional, you could potentially paint or stain the bracket to match specific colour schemes, provided the surface is clean and appropriately prepared for adhesion.

Troubleshooting

Bracket feels loose after installation.

Check that all fixings are tightened securely. Ensure the correct type and size of fixings were used for the materials being joined. Verify the bracket is correctly seated in the corner.

Difficulty aligning materials with the bracket.

Temporarily clamp the materials in place before attaching the bracket. Ensure the bracket is positioned to allow for the exact angle required between components.

Brown finish is scratched or damaged.

For minor scratches, a touch-up paint or stain in a similar brown shade may be applied. For significant damage, consider replacing the bracket if aesthetics are critical.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install the Abru Brown Angle Bracket, align it with the desired corner where two or more materials meet at a 90-degree angle. Secure the bracket using appropriate screws, bolts, or masonry fixings suitable for the materials being joined. Ensure all fixings penetrate adequately into both surfaces for maximum strength.

Compatibility: This bracket is designed for use with timber, masonry (such as brick or concrete blocks), and steel components. It is suitable for standard construction and DIY projects.

Care: The bracket is made from durable materials. For longevity, particularly in exposed outdoor environments, ensure fixings are corrosion-resistant. Clean the bracket with a damp cloth if necessary; avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
