Troubleshooting
Brace does not sit flush
Ensure the screw heads are fully countersunk. If necessary, slightly enlarge the countersunk recess or use screws with a lower profile head.
Wood splitting during screw insertion
Pre-drill pilot holes that are smaller than the screw diameter. Ensure you are not over-tightening the screws.
Corrosion or rust spots appearing
This product is designed for interior use only. Move the item to a drier location or consider a brace with a different finish if used in a humid environment.
Joint feels unstable after installation
Verify that screws are adequately tightened and appropriate for the wood thickness. Ensure the brace is correctly positioned on a clean, square joint.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Position the corner brace on the inside of the desired 90-degree joint.
Mark the positions of the countersunk screw holes onto the wood.
Pre-drill pilot holes slightly smaller than your chosen screws to prevent wood splitting, especially in harder woods.
Insert appropriate wood screws (not included) through the countersunk holes and tighten securely, ensuring the brace sits flush.
Compatibility:
Compatible with most standard wood types used in carpentry and furniture making.
Requires wood screws appropriate for the thickness of the material being joined. Ensure screws are not too long to prevent them from protruding through the other side.
Care:
Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove dust.
Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents which can damage the zinc plating.
For best longevity, ensure the product remains in a dry, interior environment.
