What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these tie plates for delivering strong, reliable joint reinforcement across diverse DIY and construction projects. Users consistently highlight their exceptional strength in high-stress applications like rafters and deck framing, noting connections are "way better than screws or nails alone." Installation is praised as simple and intuitive, with the ability to hand-bend plates to 45 or 90 degree angles without specialized tools. Customers appreciate their affordability and versatility, frequently planning to keep extras on hand. A few mention the metal is thinner than expected, though most consider this a minor trade-off for the overall value and performance.

Strong, versatile, and easy to use

Would Recommend

Strong and easy to use. Needed to repair a cracked bed frame and this was perfect given the shape of the crack. It has many holes to pick from and is quite sturdy.

Perfect for someone

Would Recommend

I was trying to repair my ping ping table. This product looked perfect. I was wrong because the uniform holes were too small for my screws. Not the plates fault that i didnt realize the difference ahead of time.

Great for roof trusses

They worked great. I used them to build roof trusses for my shed. The trusses turned out great. My shed is looking like someone professional built it.
