What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these angle brackets for exceptional strength, durability, and reliability. The heavy-duty, thick 12-gauge galvanized steel construction consistently resists bending and securely holds structural joints, 4x4 posts, and demanding applications like deck reinforcement and fence repair. Reviewers emphasize professional-grade quality, precise angling, and superior performance compared to cheaper alternatives. Most report the brackets worked exactly as intended across diverse projects, providing peace of mind regarding structural integrity. A few note thickness complicates hidden screw installation, though workarounds exist. Overall, customers consider these brackets excellent investments for demanding projects.

An extremely strong bracket

Would Recommend

I needed to reinforce the framing adjacent to the walk-in door of my detached garage after reinforcing the door and installing a kick-resistant strike plate for the deadbolt, and wanted a substantial bracket to reinforce where the ganged 2x6 wall studs are attached to the treated 2x6 sill plate. This bracket was a bit more expensive than I'd planned on spending, but it's insanely strong and provides a high level of structural integrity that definitely achieves my objective.

Appears to be tough. Installation will bear it out if it is or not.

Strong bracket Label is a problem.

Would Recommend

It works well and is very sturdy. My biggest problem with it is that the barcode label is on the visible side of the bracket. They could have easily put it on the back, but it is on the front and it is a real problem to remove. I used some WD40 to get it off.

Lowe's employees are smart and intelligent.

This man (idk his name) was an expert. I asked him where to find the item and he found it for me right away. Big asset for your company.
